About this listen

 Deep in the jungles of Peru, the hunt for a legendary Incan idol is underway - an idol that in the present day could be used as the basis for a terrifying new weapon. Guiding a US Army is Professor William Race, a young linguist who must translate an ancient manuscript which contains the location of the idol. What they find is an ominous stone temple, sealed tight. They open it - and soon discover that some doors are meant to remain unopened.©2008 Matthew Reilly (P)2008 Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd.

Any additional comments?

I loved this (okay I do love all Matthew Riley books) I had it on cassettes but soon found myself wondering how much of the story I was missing, so was so pleased to find audible selling the unabridged version. So I just had to get it.

love the fact that you have 2 stories running parallel with each other. The way one moment it is high Tec guns and then it is bows and arrows but as one time line has an effect on one story it also helps the hero in the other. Very cleverly crafted story, with lots happening in both line lines. An audiobook you can listen to again and again.

Fast paced through the ages

This book is all about action. Biff, bam, kerpow. If you can overlook the hackneyed cliches (heads always explode like a watermelon, every older person is a wily old fox), and the 1980s view of women, based on their looks. The author says he always imagines his characters as if they are played by film actors and is waiting for the books to be made into films. That’s exactly how this book is written. It will be my last by this author as I found the narration either hilarious or irritating and the plot laughable. I’ll wait for the movie and watch it when I can’t sleep on a plane.

If you want to hear a Spanish monk of the 1530s sound like an AMerican trying to replicate an Irish accent this is for you.

This was an ok book with lots of action, but it was a bit unoriginal. The characters are very stereotypical, but the adventure was great with lots and lots of suspense. I like that we get the history parts of the story as well.

Reads like an action movie
