Makes you think about the basis of Christianity and the Knights Templar. A page turner with good character development, plot twists, factual and fiction historical descriptions (as reveiled in the author's notes at the end). Slightly similar to the Di Vinci Code and the movie National Treasure (my appologies if there is a book). I will defientely be checking out my works by this author.

This is the first entry in the Cotton Malone series, and a pretty good mystery. Although I thought that it took a little too long to set up the story and actually get to the point, it's well written and has lots of fascinating historical (and quasi-historical) details that made it just a cut above the normal. I also appreciated the notes at the end that distinguished fact from fiction. Well crafted escapist reading.

It was a good mystery, with lots of twists and turns in the plot. Has a lot of history in it.
The author distinguishes between fact and fiction in the writers notes!

I ordered this after reading Dan Brown's books - which I loved! Steve Berry weaves an even more intricate story delving more into the history of the templars and with lots of twists turns and dirty politics. Very very good read!! I'm looking forward to reading his other about The Alexandria Link soon.

I am a big Steve Berry fan and I found this book to be a very good read. Not too far fetched from Dan Brown's own take on the Templar's this book is very fast paced and full of sharp intellect. I would recommend this book to anyone who is a Dan Brown fan.
