7 Deadly Wonders Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Very entertaining book, definitely much better than what I expected given what I have read by Reilly before. Lots of interesting historical tidbits and I must say, the idea of Australia as the "most powerful nation on Earth" is definitely original "

" Made it to the list: Books I Wish I Never Read. "

" This book was so FREAKING cool! I'm like, twelve, but this book was so action-packed and had so much depth that made you imagine whole new places, that I just HAD to enjoy it! "

" Unbelieveable thriller...saving the Earth from a variety of threats...escapes from horrible deaths at the last moment...like a 1940s movie serial "

" Cheesy and Hilarious! "

" Too far-out for me and very complicated. Superhuman feats on a regular basis actually became boring. Would not recommend spending your time here too many other good reads available. "

" too much action, not enough plot...trying to copy the success of the da vinci code in drawing hidden meanings of natural wonders, but does a weak job "

" Kind of cheated a little bit (diary). Otherwise would have been a 5. "

" Crap, with a few good action sequences, but really poor writing and, even within this fantastical context, preposterous plot points. Didn't buy it at all, and really didn't appreciate the author's need to emphasize things with italics and exclamation points (as if we might be too dim to understand what was supposed to be exciting). Plus the consistent use of poorly-rendered pictures to help us visualize the overly complicated interiors (movie sets, really) Reilly concocts - I mean, really; what is the point in having this picture and THEN spending a paragraph describing it? Reilly's talents seem better suited for failed TV pilots and C-grade cinema than novels. I will never read another one of his books. "

" I think this a great book for all the people who love action and adventure this is a great book for you, I loved this book and would recommend it for people of all ages "

" The most god awful piece of writing I've ever seen in print. It reminds me of something I might have written myself in high school. "

" The very best Reilly novel I've read. "

" Action adventure - not my usual. "

" True that I enjoy this kind of brainless reading when I'm tired or just need to relax, but I had to drop this one because it was so predictable that even the supposedly mysterious / suspenseful element that should keep you reading was missing. So, there was no point.... "

" I am enjoying it thus far. "

" I love his books but this series has been my favorite so far. Don't read him if you don't want to read swears and violence though. "

" Non stop action thriller, in the same vein as Silva and Cussler. I think most would like this adventure and treasure hunt. A fast fun read. "

" Absolutely non stop action with a history lesson thrown in! Indianna jones on steroids! And is it just me or does anyone else picture Hugh Jackman playing Jack west jnr in the movie! "

" Loved this, fantastic Aussie author! Make a great movie. "

" While the basic premise seems entertaining, I just couldn't get past Mr Reilley's complete inability to use the English language. A true chore to read and eventually I just gave up. "

" Matthew Reily is the best author ever! This book is for people who love action and history. "

" I am forever grateful to my friend who pushed me to read this. Seven Ancient Wonders captures you in the first few pages in a way that only certain books can. Matthew Rielly has become my favorite Australian Author through adventure, tears and anticipation. Let's hope he never stops writing! "

" Loved the fast-paced adventure in here. Having always been fascinated with the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, it was a thrill to actually visit them! A great story of the Underdogs fighting until the end. "

" Eh. Mindlessly entertaining with an emphasis on mindless. "

" This book was fast-paced, but in a bad way...I couldn't wait for it to end. There was a lot of action and it kept me interested. But I gave it 2 stars because it was much too predictable and unbelievable. "

" My guilty pleasure. "

" Seven Deadly Won ders was full of action. I enjoyed the book, but I never really was emotionally attached to the story. "

" I rate it three stars because I have yet to finish it. So far I find it to be quite inthralling and interesting. Before I go to bed, I have to force myself to put the book down. I'm always thinking "what happens next" "

" Indiana Jones type trilogy. The first book stands alone. Many things were highly improbably, but an enjoyable read. "

" Storyline is OK; lots of action. Reads like and Indiana Jones movie. Narrator sucks. "

" Filled with action, adventure and a solid storyline this is a great read for those who are mystified by ancient myths and legends. I read this book from start to finish in one night! Matthew Reilly knows how to keep his audience entertained! "

" I wanted to give this one 5 stars. It was completely clean up until the last couple of chapters and then they had to throw in several F-Bombs. Ruined it for me, but prior to that... amazing. Why do people have to ruin perfectly good books? "

" This book is a thrill ride to the end--non-stop action, and it was quick read.. It was enjoyable and very fast-paste, but you have to take it for what its worth--an enjoyable popcorn thriller.. I am now on to the 2nd book in West thrillers.. "

" Loved the fast-paced adventure in here. Having always been fascinated with the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, it was a thrill to actually visit them! A great story of the Underdogs fighting until the end. "

" Usual Reilly with people dying and lots of fast-paced action. Quick read. Jack West, Australian, and othe nations are racing to attain the ultimate power. Indiana Jonesish. "

" Loved this series. Want more! "

" It's like an Indiana Jones movie. Totally implausible and not going to win any awards, but quite good fun. "

" Australian author. This book is part of a series of people from different countries' military groups. They are roaming the world saving it from various ancient traps with their varying skills. A fun read. Keeps me reading and telling the dogs, "Your walk will be later!" "

" Couldnt even finish. Made Sunday comic strips seem like Tolstoy. "
