Chambers' slick novels follow young Cockney billionaire, and one-time 'super trader' Jim Evans around the world on audacious crime-busting exploits involving private jets, pretty women and crazed crims fixated on his vast wealth.

The Armageddon Trade is the first in the popular series of adventure-packed crime novels, followed by The Twain Maxim and Kusunagi.

The fourth installment is set for release in November 2012, and is available for pre-order now.

Pitting Evans against a mad scientist with bio-weapons on the verge of unlocking the secret to immortality, and a psychotic lab assistant with a penchant for dismemberment, 'Britain's Most Eligible Bachelor under 30' once again has attracted all manner of evil to his door - or his money has.

Chambers is CEO of stocks and shares site ADVFN. He is a regular face on global news networks (BBC/Sky/CNBC/Fox/Al Jazeera/BNN) appearing as a financial media commentator, whilst he's also penned a series of investment guides, including the Amazon best-sellers 101 Ways To Pick Stock Market Winners and A Beginner's Guide To Value Investing.

A great read.

This rollicking adventure tale was great fun to read. I read it in one session. I am truly exhausted but satiated, but, probably only until I start my next Chamber's book.

A charmingly complex protag, a quicksilver pace, and enough death and destruction -- both from man and nature -- to keep the pulse pitter-pattering. A Big Dog Doombah of a book (read it -- you'll understand).
