Summary
This collection contains three best-selling Sam Reilly novels by the new master of action and adventure, Christopher Cartwright.
The Last Airship: In 1939, a secret airship departed Nazi Germany in the dark of night filled with some of the most influential people of its time. Its cargo: a complement of rich Jewish families carrying their most valuable possessions. One such item among them was as dangerous as it was priceless. The airship never reached its destination.
In 2015, Sam Reilly, a marine biologist and wealthy son of shipping mogul James Reilly, discovers a missing clue about the lost airship and what follows is a violent treasure hunt kept secret by the most powerful men in the world today, driven by their greed and need for that which all are motivated: the opportunity for unlimited power.
The Mahogany Ship: An ancient shipwreck. A two hundred year old mystery. A plague that’s destroying all marine life. A pyramid half a mile below the sea. And a puzzle that must be solved before it destroys the human race. On the 18th of February, 1812, the Emily Rose became shipwrecked on the southern coast of Australia. The survivors are forced to walk nearly 1,000 miles through the unexplored land to reach the only settlement Sydney Cove.
Nearly 200 miles inland, they come across the remains of a monstrous ship, far bigger than anything the British Navy had ever constructed. Through basic communication achieved with the natives, they learned that the ship had been there for a very long time, maybe 1,000 years. Despite the details of the mysterious ship in the journals from the survivors of the Emily Rose, no evidence that the mahogany ship ever existed was found - until now.
A mining exploration in Australia takes a core sample 500 feet below the surface of a deserted mountain. The sample returns no evidence of gold deposits but something much more valuable - a single Spanish gold coin dated 1518. Could the origins of this coin finally reveal the existence of the fabled mahogany ship?
Atlantis Stolen: A civilization stolen from the history books. A billionaire’s obsession to unlock its secrets. A brotherhood determined to hide the truth. And time is running out. Only a handful of people know what destroyed the ancient Atlanteans, whose very existence is a secret that they will kill to protect. Unfortunately, the very same catastrophe that destroyed that once proud civilization is drawing near once more. The question is, can marine biologist Sam Reilly discover the truth in time to prevent it?

Quite good story
A bit too like a Cussler story for me but still enjoyable. The narrator was good.

Good Adventure
Just finished the last airship, enjoyed it.
Already queueing up the rest of the series with my spare credits.
3 Decent length books for the price of one credit is something I cant really ignore which means ill have nearly the entire series within 6 months now so happy with that. I wish more authors did multi book releases like this.

Death defying deeds
I was gifted this set of books via a FaceBook post and am grateful to the author for allowing me the chance to experience the Sam Reilly adventures.
This set moves along at breakneck speed. Although the scope of the story is intriguing, imaginative, and large, some of the technical descriptions felt a little intrusive as if the author felt the need to cram in every piece of research or real-world knowledge they had at their disposal. I also lost my orientation at times as the narrative jumped between locations mid-chapter, and named characters just appeared as if the listener should know who they were. For me, the narrator didn't help, as I didn't warm to his voice. I will revisit this world again as the story itself is so intriguing.

Non stop adventure and excitement
The Sam Reilly collection - Book 1 The last airship - I really enjoyed this story about a missing airship that escaped from Nazi Germany during the war. The ship has never been found. what secrets are buried with her and why are so many people looking for her but also does someone want Sam Reilly dead and if so who and why? This book is exciting and you get swept along on this treasure hunt for Sam’s life. It is full of twists and turns and you can trust no one. - Book 2 the mahogany ship - another treasure hunt of an adventure for Sam Reilly and yet again he is getting into trouble and risking his life to find a urban myth of a ship. Sam still doesn’t know who the good guys actually are and is his hunt for this ship for the greatest good or just greed. I love the descriptive way the author writes about wreck diving and he seems to have ab wide knowledge of the subject and makes the story feel very real to the listener. - Book 3 Atlantis Stolen - so the final book is in search of the island of Atlantis the famous and possibly mythical city which has never been located. Has Sam found the map to find this city and will finding it risk his life again as after all if he has an idea where it is then so have other people. The race is on again as Sam does not like the quiet life.
This is a great trio of stories full of excitement and adventure which does not disappoint.

In the style of writers like H. Rider Haggard :)
I love these books.
To me, the style these books are written in is reminiscent of the old style adventure novelists like H. Rider Haggard - who wrote King Solomons Mines and its sequel plus many other novels.
The author kindly gave me a free copy of book three and I was only halfway through listening to it when I knew I had to stop and read the first two before I finished it and was very happy to find this compilation.
If you want an adventure story that is just that without the gory bits that often are added to modern novels just to colour it but don't actually add to the story.
I have now listened to all six available on Audible and am sad the rest of the series so far is not available via Audible. I hope they read this review and consider adding them as listening via Kindle is just not the same.

If it needs finding, Sam Reilly's your man.
First three books in Sam Reilly series. Ex marine Sam, now working for his father cleaning up disasters, is drawn into a hunt for a missing airship, then a mysterious ship and finally Atlantis. Good series of books, that need to be read in order, as it is a continuous story line.
Well narrated by David Gilmore, he keeps the stories moving along nicely and his performances get better with each book.

Amazing story and characters
I love Sam as a lead. I also really like the friends he has gathered around him who can easily step up to take over being the main focal point at different points. All the characters are well written. The story or rather stories are all brilliant. Brilliant detail and descriptions and a great pace that moves us along. Quite literally I was hooked within moments.
This is a must read/listen too series that you really want to check out!
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review

Remember to sample
Reasonable stories if far fetched but I’m totally put off by the narrator. His attempts at accents are awful and he always voices statements as questions.

not sure what to make of it
was given this series by the author for free
not bad story and seemed a little intriguing but the narration is not good and takes away from it.
the characters are not very strong, all the men are millionaires and highly trained the women are all stunners and highly intelligent. its trying to be modern day Indiana but it just doesn't live up to it. ill give the second set ago but sorry it just doesn't seem like its for me which is a shame because the idea of it was good
