The Amazonian adventure
Another 5 star book. Turner does it again, and the ending is superbly crafted for anticipation. I hope book 8 is on the way

Not sure the reasons why, but I think this was my favorite book of the series thus far...

After the nail-biting previous book, Nemesis, this book is refreshing, relaxed, things-are-well-for-the-good-guys book. A fast-paced thriller nonetheless.
Quite a lot of positives:
- Heroes are not invulnerable
- Combat pragmatism - when outnumbered by large numbers, the good guys adopt realistic methods to even the odds, and don't go all Rambo
- Good client, which is a good break from 'rich is evil'
The background history could have been made more interesting, but then I'm nitpicking.
All in all, a nice relaxing read for the thrill-seeker.
