If you're looking for fine writing and character development and all that fancy stuff, look elsewhere. If, on the other hand, you're looking for the literary equivalent of an Indiana Jones movie, this is the book for you. Matthew Reilly's prose is only serviceable at best, but his imagination -- and his sheer audacity -- runs circles around most writers. The 6 Sacred Stones is never remotely believable, but, damn, it's a lot of fun to read. (One thing to note: this book ends in a huge cliffhanger that isn't going to be resolved until the book's sequel. Drove me up the wall!)
When's the next book coming out and what's the title???
