Contains the first six Ben Hope novels, together for the very first The Alchemist’s Secret The Mozart Conspiracy The Doomsday Prophecy The Heretic’s Treasure The Shadow Project The Lost Relic
A great collection of Ben Hope's missions with the gambit of the interact0ns with friends, lovers and most definitely his enemies. Very additive reading. Once started very difficult to stop read the succeeding novel. Scott Mariani , (author) has the uncanny skill of inter-weaving major and minor characters into a follow up novel. So now the reader has a history with the characters and their various outcomes in his future novels. Good writing, a clear and concise story line with still unexpected outcomes. I have been reading action, spy novels for well over half a century, these novels definitely keep me interested and coming back for more!
I've read a lot of action series but Scott Mariani's Ben Hope is definitely the best. So well written, tremendous plotlines that keep you guessing, interesting minor characters sprinkled throughout, and a main character that is believable, human, flawed, and a pleasure to read. If you're lucky enough not to have started this series yet, get ready, it's the best!!
I'm so glad to have found Ben Hope. To me he's a cross between James Bond with a little Bourne added. Purely a good guy, but tough. Anybody that messes with him is always sorry. With technology, what it is, living in the states, I'm fortunate to be able to read an adventure series like this and get a feel for so many places in Europe that I now want to visit. Thanks Scott Mariani, for being a new favorite author. Please keep on writing. Larry Florida, U.S.A.
Loved every one of the books in the series so far. I think Mr. Mariana must have a fondness for the word 'judder' or no synonym for it appears in his Thesaurus. Each book is an action packed thrill ride...hard to put them down. I am off to read Ben Hope's next adventure and, I assume miraculous escape from oblivion.
These first six books in the Ben Hope series puts Scott Mariani on my list of book series that I can’t wait to read. The action and the plots will keep me counting the days until I can read the next one.
I enjoyed these books and would highly recommend them to anyone. I love the character of Ben Hope because he's not your typical hero. He has a past that field who he is and how he behaves.
Good entertaining series. Enjoyed reading a couple then putting it down and coming back to when I needed something a little lighter but a good thriller/chase.
I loved this exciting adventure/ action series. Though it is probably aimed towards male audience, I found it very thrilling. I couldn’t wait to find out what Ben was going to do next!!!!
The author was highly recommended to me by JF Penn. All six books are draped in intensive research of the subject matter. The author has created a central character who is very believable and flawed like all of us. Ben Hope relies on his training,he is impulsive and a very compassionate character. Once you start reading any of scott Mariani books you can't put it down! Extremely well written, action packed...spot on!
