The Alexander Cipher: A Thriller Audiobook

" A typical archaeological thriller, an entertaining light read. I might check out the others in this series but only if they're also free from the library. "

" so-so thriller "

" I won this book from one of the Firstreads giveaways. While not something I would typically read, this was enjoyable. The characters were well-developed, the dialogue was realistic, the plot fast-paced. There's action, suspense, history, a little romance (but not too much). Good beach read. "

" This is an archeological thriller...a good read. I've read a number of Will Adams books and he uses the same characters. This was his first book and I would advise that you read them in the correct order. "

" Good Indiana Jones fun set in modern day. "

" I was going to give this novel only two stars, but then I realized that I learned a lot of interesting facts about Alexander the Great, Macedonia, Egypt, archaeology...this author really knows his stuff! He's not the greatest writer-the novel contained several unnecessary and unresolved plotlines. And you know those people who go searching for all the curse words to be found in Catcher in the Rye? I wanted to count how many times he used the phrase "pulled a face"-I can except once, maybe even twice in a novel, but I'm pretty sure we made it into double digits in this book! "

" Lots of action, characters boring. "

" I really didn't know a whole lot about Alexander until I read this book. There was a lot of information, without it becoming a reference book. The action was very good and the romance was at a level I can tolerate. Very good book!! "

" I enjoyed this story. It's written for people interested in archaeology that aren't yet well versed in it. It has a similar theme to DaVinci code. Stories of antiquity mixed with modern time conspiracy theories. "

" Een lekker vlot leesbaar verhaal over de zoektocht naar het graf van Alexander de Grote "

" I'll read his other books "

" Entertaining as an audiobook! "

" Fast paced and full of fascinating historical facts. The storyline however was problematic. Many unnecessary characters and too many perspective shifts. "

" Egyptologists getting in sticky situations...akin to the DaVinci code in that it's a thriller involving historical artifacts and long-lost secrets, with an unlikely academic as the hero. Fun times for history buffs and dorks alike. "

" Moved well, good mix of action and adventure. Only complaint (and maybe it's b/c I'm a history nerd) but I felt the actual historical pursuit of Alexander's tomb was the part lacking. A little to much mayhem/bad guys shooting and not enough solving clues to find hidden treasure. "

" It's been a couple of years since I read it. Not as good as Steve Berry/James Rollins but an enjoyable romp. "

" A book truly worthy of sitting on the same shelf as the Davinci Code and The Lost Symbol... I simply couldn't put it down! "

" Really, really good! It was one of those off-the-cuff library random choices of the Dan Brown/Katherine Neville variety, and I'm very happy I found it. Can't wait to read the next book in the series. "

" Started out great then it just lost steam and the story lost focus... "

" i hv a minor crush on Knox, this book was amazing. The plots and sub-plots so intertwined its just great, im gonna read it over "

" I enjoyed reading about Alexander the Great and want to read more, perhaps a biography to learn more of what really happened. The mystery thriller aspect of the book was a good solid B. "

" Awesome! Can't believe that this is a first novel! "

" enjoyable, suspenseful mystery in the end, but i had to wade through lots of archaeological facts and info re: alexander and egypt and macedonia and greeks and tombs and .................. "

" It's been a couple of years since I read it. Not as good as Steve Berry/James Rollins but an enjoyable romp. "

" High speed adventure. If you are looking for yet one more thing to inspire you to visit Egypt, this is it. Look forward to hearing from these characters again. "

" Fun read! Liked it a lot! "

" Easy, fun read with way too many characters and subplots, but lots of cool/nerdy historical info about Alexander the Great. "
