The 5th book in series that keeps getting better.

The author was more aggressive in style with this edition, as he had multiple story lines going at once, which allowed the various characters that we know and love to share the spot light, while introducing new ones, and presenting a guest appearance by a character from the first book. Sounds complicated, but it wasn't.

The book and the series so far have not disappointed. The concept is brilliant, and it's executed with both style and depth.

When I tell other adults about this fantastic series, their eyes glaze over - but this book is written in the best tradition of "Boy's and Men's Fiction" - nonstop action, exotic villains and clean story lines.

The book is recommended for 12 and up, and I think that is a safe audience. It really does not have mature themes or (much) mature language. The book has violence, people die, although none by the hands of our hero's.

Fun, riveting, a page turner, what else could you want?
