THIS VIRUS IS SATAN'S REVENGE... Multiple time USA TODAY & Amazon 5-million copy bestselling authors DAVID ARCHER and BLAKE BANNER have combined forces to create one hell of a thriller series!

When a leading international financier is murdered in his Beverly Hills mansion, at first it looks like just another daemon at work in the City of Angels. But when the ritual nature of the killing emerges, the FBI take an interest. And then the international connections start to emerge: the European Commission, high ranking officials in Hong Kong…and Iran.

That’s when the file gets passed to ODIN, and Alex Mason.

When Mason starts to dig he soon realizes that the murder of a single financier is just the tip of the iceberg. Because wherever he looks, whomever he talks to, one word keeps repeating itself, and that word is ‘virus’.

In a case that will take him and Gallin half way round the world to the Pyrenees in France, London and the Chilean Andes, they will both realize the terrifying truth that this is no ordinary virus. This is on the brink of madness.

This virus is Satan’s Revenge…

Absolutely stunning work David and Blake. This is definitely the best action adventure spy series I have yet to read, and I’ve read a lot.
Action packed all the way and the rapport between Alex and Gallin is priceless.
I look forward to another episode soon.
Thank you once again for a breathtaking read.

Archer is a master of suspense action and reality. The tropics he covers are most current and need to be addressed. We do live through times where politicians and billionaires act with impunity to further their own plans. We all need to believe something like Odin and people like Banner and Gallin do exist.

This was a great Mason and Gallin chapter ! They had to get past the big ape Humberto . With inhibiting drug was his down fall. Luckily Mason got the Federal Reserve and Stock market offline so he wouldn't destroy the Western economy! Just a fantastic story!!! Keep up great work!!! 20 stars plus!!! Thanks, Carl Clause

Not the best in the series

Love this Alex Mason series, but this was not a good one. Ridiculous premise without much of an attempt to even flesh it out. A million loose plot ends dangling at the end. Flat, predictable dialog. Not giving up on Alex Mason, but you can skip this one in the series and not miss anything.

Awseome

Thank you both for another suspense filled page turner. Found myself reading for an hour or more instead of just a few minutes. The crazy story line was amazing.
Thank again for a great story.

Freezine frenzy must be stopped

Alex and Gallin must act decisively to stop the Head Goat who plans to topple the world's population. What a trip of death and destruction as morality flips upsidedown. Two gets you twenty, this story has allegorical qualities.

Can't put it down !

A suspenseful thriller. Alex and Gallin at their best against a diabolical madman. When you think you have it figured out, the story turns upside down. Great Read!

A madman thinks he's a god.

Alex has his work cut out for him. He must infiltrate a secretive organization and learn their plans. That plan is to change the world to their liking, while killing millions in the process.

Love the chemistry of these two characters. Good story line, in line with the possible reality we as a planet of humans may face based on world economy dominated by the few, add in the unknown of AI technology.

This is a short book with a stupid plot . Deals with eliminating most of those alive and switches to taking over the stock markets by this nut on drugs. Archer threw in some sex to make it interesting I guess. He failed.

Brotherhood of the Goat

While I normally really enjoy an Alex Mason story this one was not among my favorites. It was hard to believe the storyline and the plot seemed to be out of sink.

Amazing ride

This was a great read. The plot was unique, made me think! Alex and Gillian find that they must act quickly to save the world again, but this time the threat is …..very different!

Did not finish.... Not at all my type of my book and a bit of a departure from what I have previously read by these authors. Little character development and too much murder for no real reason...Not my cup of tea at all....JMHO.
