Omtale fra Den Norske Bokdatabasen
It is the biggest treasure hunt in history with contesting nations involved in a headlong race to locate the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. 4500 years ago, a magnificent golden capstone sat at the peak of the Great Pyramid of Giza. It was a source of immense power, reputedly capable of bestowing upon its holder absolute global power. But then it was divided into seven pieces and hidden, each piece separately, within the seven greatest structures of the age. Now it's 2006 and the coming of a rare solar event means it's time to locate the seven pieces and rebuild the capstone. Everyone wants it - from the most powerful countries on Earth to gangs of terrorists ...and one daring coalition of eight small nations. Led by the mysterious Captain Jack West Jr, this determined group enters a global battlefield filled with booby-trapped mines, crocodile-infested swamps, evil forces and an adventure beyond imagining. 'More action, hair-raising stunts and lethal hardware than you'd find in four Bond movies. Reilly is the hottest action writer around' - "Evening Telegraph".

Denne boka virka tålig bra utifrå kva som sto bak på coveret. Det er eit framifrå eksempel på at ein ikkje skal tru alt ein leser. Eg har ingen problem med at historie, sanning og fysiske lover blir tøyd litt i fiksjon, men det må gjerast med ein viss eleganse og finesse slik at det blir nokonlunde truverdig i historien sitt univers. Den einaste slike elegansen ein finn i "Seven Ancient Wonders" er i den nevnte omtalen på baksida.
I tillegg er boka verken spennande, morsom, engasjerande eller tankevekkjande.
Det einaste eg sat att med når eg var ferdig med den var anger. Eg kunne brukt tida på så mykje anna fornuftig!
