Publisher's summary

This collection contains three best-selling Sam Reilly novels by the new master of action and adventure, Christopher Cartwright.

The Last Airship: In 1939, a secret airship departed Nazi Germany in the dark of night filled with some of the most influential people of its time. Its cargo: a complement of rich Jewish families carrying their most valuable possessions. One such item among them was as dangerous as it was priceless. The airship never reached its destination.

In 2015, Sam Reilly, a marine biologist and wealthy son of shipping mogul James Reilly, discovers a missing clue about the lost airship and what follows is a violent treasure hunt kept secret by the most powerful men in the world today, driven by their greed and need for that which all are motivated: the opportunity for unlimited power.

The Mahogany Ship: An ancient shipwreck. A two hundred year old mystery. A plague that’s destroying all marine life. A pyramid half a mile below the sea. And a puzzle that must be solved before it destroys the human race. On the 18th of February, 1812, the Emily Rose became shipwrecked on the southern coast of Australia. The survivors are forced to walk nearly 1,000 miles through the unexplored land to reach the only settlement Sydney Cove.

Nearly 200 miles inland, they come across the remains of a monstrous ship, far bigger than anything the British Navy had ever constructed. Through basic communication achieved with the natives, they learned that the ship had been there for a very long time, maybe 1,000 years. Despite the details of the mysterious ship in the journals from the survivors of the Emily Rose, no evidence that the mahogany ship ever existed was found - until now.

A mining exploration in Australia takes a core sample 500 feet below the surface of a deserted mountain. The sample returns no evidence of gold deposits but something much more valuable - a single Spanish gold coin dated 1518. Could the origins of this coin finally reveal the existence of the fabled mahogany ship?

Atlantis Stolen: A civilization stolen from the history books. A billionaire’s obsession to unlock its secrets. A brotherhood determined to hide the truth. And time is running out. Only a handful of people know what destroyed the ancient Atlanteans, whose very existence is a secret that they will kill to protect. Unfortunately, the very same catastrophe that destroyed that once proud civilization is drawing near once more. The question is, can marine biologist Sam Reilly discover the truth in time to prevent it?

An excellent series!

This is the best series I have found recently! The author does a great job building this story layer upon layer! Action, mystery, history, all wrapped in a wonderful package! Each book starts with an “historical” chapter, then moves into modern day. Where the main character goes on an adventure to find long lost secrets. Each book then on its own is almost a chapter in a much larger story, well done!! If you are a fan of Indiana Jones, or even Bond, I highly recommend this series!! I can’t wait to start the next box set! Which is also a wonderful bonus, three books in one, and there are many sets to the series! I will be enjoying this story for a long time!

I have received a free copy of this book, in exchange for an unbiased review.

Grand action adventure!

I totally enjoyed this collection from Christopher Cartwright. The stories are richly woven with myth, backstory, history and characterization. An immersive read that captivated my imagination. 5-star adventure for fans of Indiana Jones and the like.

This series totally made the three hours I spend each day carting kids to and from school less painful. Thanks for the great escape!

The narration suited the tone of the book and was professionally delivered.

No complaints from this listener!

What A Ride

This is my first listen to Christopher Cartwright. He has done an excellent job with character creation in this series. Plenty of mystery and yet lots of depth.
The first book introduces Sam Riley and his crew along with a cast of additional characters for the first story. Some become part of the continuing story and we get to see them again. Others are here today, gone tomorrow. But all have the needed depth to understand all we need to know.
Each story is complete in itself (meaning that story line is wrapped up by the end of that book) but at the same time a continuation of the series as it should be in any good trilogy.
I will soon find out if the next set has the same design or if that set is also a continuation of this set.
I love long series as I can really get involved with the characters and don't have to let go after just a week or so.

Narration was also excellent for this series. All three books were narrated by the same person as any good series should be unless the MC changes. Excellent differentiation and characterization for each individual of the story.

Would highly recommend for anyone looking to get lost in a long series. Well worth the time and the credit.

Exciting…Adventurous…Thrilling and more

I'm only half way thru the book and let me tell you that Christopher Cartwright delivers an excellent story.
Each of the books gives an exciting and adventurous story. These stories remind me of the movies "National Treasure" , if you liked those movies then you will more than enjoy this series.

I also like the narrator, David Gilmore does an excellent job in telling and living the story.

A great series.

The narration was great. I would listen to this narrator again.
The stories were well written. Highly recommended. Believable characters.

THREE EXCELLENT BOOKS IN ONE! AWESOME!

Wow, these three books were amazing!! Great story, great narration, great plot, loved it all. All 3 stories are similarly structured and inter-connected, so it's worth reading them all together/back to back. Great historical content, I'm super impressed with this collection. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who loves historical books, can't go wrong with these! :) Lots of action & adventure, suspenseful, thrilling! GREAT READ.

A Great Collection

I enjoyed listening to these three books. They are full of adventure, action and intrigue. A bit over-the-top but sometimes that's just what is needed. I look forward to more in this series and feel this set is definitely worth the listen. The narrator did a good job bringing the story to life for the listener.

Indiana Jones with a focus on boats.

Great collection of stories. Gives off heavy Indiana Jones vibes, with heavy maritime tones.

Narration was acceptable, not the greatest I've ever heard but not the worst either. Narrator attempts to give each character different voices.
