Joining up with a new group the Army of God's numbers grow in their fight against the Hexad. Will the Army of God succeed in collecting the second artifact or will the Hexad finally wind up with a win for the first time in centuries?
Kept your attention throughout. Only drawback I have is if the reader does not have a background in the Bible or a knowledge of biblical history. You could still read it but I feel so much would be lost. I hope the third book in the trilogy comes out soon because I want to find out what happens to Joseph.
What a rush! An amazing twist and turns of high caliber adventure with humor. Added with awesome characters, vivid description of sceneries that made you feel like you are one of the characters bring chased. Highly recommend to readers who love archeology, a little bit of danger and fast-paced roller-coaster adventure ride!
A fast moving action thriller around religious relics and how the unworthy can get lost in their addiction to power, however false it may be. Non-stop action.
Another great book by Matt James and can’t wait for the last installment of the trilogy! I loved the storyline of the decendants of Jesus and Moses, the relics and Eden!
