The Relic Hunters #6
The Illuminati Sanctum
Part one of a two-part adventure!
When the Relic Hunters escape the clutches of the CIA and settle on a Mexican ranch, little do they know that they’re about to be attacked by the Illuminati. Captured and dragged away to an ancient castle, they are questioned, tortured and tormented in preparation for their execution.
But when the Illuminati reveal the existence of an apocalyptic prophecy that will lead the world into disaster, Bodie and his friends escape, embarking upon a desperate, wild quest to find the world’s ten most powerful sanctums. These good and evil sanctums, all centred around powerful ley lines, hold the keys to victory or defeat, and the start of a new world.
From the great Pyramid of Egypt to the Algerian Megalithic ruins and the ancient haunts of Karachi, they engage in a running battle to beat the Illuminati. Then, after heading back for a confrontation at Atlantis, they face an epic showdown in the savage and ferocious Himalayas, in sight of Mount Everest, a battle that may cost them all their lives . . .

The Illuminati Sanctum - a review by Rosemary Kenny
Bodie and his fellow Relic Hunters must race against the clock to beat the eponymous threat and save the world once more, in The Illuminati Sanctum, by the amazing Master of Treasure-Hunter Thrillers, David Leadbeater.
Before giving up their current location, they lay separate false trails for their enemies, before meeting up for what they assume will be the last time, so they can go out on a high note. High speed helo and car chases ensue, as the team flee their safe house with unknown enemies in hot pursuit and after gaining intel from an unexpected source and escaping from gruesome deaths at the Illuminati stronghold, their mission takes them on a perilous international chase, seeking specific items needed to overcome their Illuminati enemy.
Can they complete the quest and escape with their lives?
The Illuminati Sanctum, (Part 1 of a 2-part set) by David Leadbeater, will set you on the right track to adventure, that concludes in Part 2, in late 2021!

Part One of a two book story, full of action, adventure and excitement.
Guy Bodie and his team of Relic Hunters have finally cut their ties with the CIA, and go on the run to Mexico. In Mexico, they're found by the Illuminati, a villainous terrorist group of devil worshippers, with a bottomless bank account and many supporters to call on in times of need. The upper echelons of the Illuminati are all totally committed to completing a mission to obtain ten specimens of ore from specific areas round the world, combine them in a ceremony, and fulfil Satan's Prophecy. Bodie and his team are stalking them, in the hope, vain or otherwise, that the Illuminati will fail and be wiped out.
Half way through the story, we're left at a cliff-hanger, as Bodie's team and the Illuminati have just crossed paths for the fifth time, at Mount Everest. Next stop Scotland and Loch Ness. Will start part two in a day or two. I need time to calm down.

The 6th book in the Relic Hunters Series was probably one of my favorites in the series so far. Finally free from the CIA but not free from their past, the gang is forced into a race to collect all of the ore from the 10 shrines before the Illuminati. If they fail who knows what disaster awaits the world, especially with the mention of Hades. The story was fast paced and entertaining. Each shrine so far has had Its time to shine, the right amount of time was dedicated to each one and they have all had their own trials and tribulations. It did have a bit of an abrupt ending because I wasn't aware the adventure was split between two books but it makes sense to separate them to allow the adventure to be more detailed.

I had to pick this up to see what happened from reading the last book. I was in such a hurry to read it, I didn't read the beginning caption when I downloaded it... The next installment of this 2 part book doesn't become available until Sep '21. UH! So I buzzed though this one, as I have done with all of the Relic Hunter books and the story stops mid telling. UH! So I moved on to one of his other series. Obviously well worth the read, gripping action. They tried to hide from the world and make an easy life. Knew that wasn't happening. So flung back into the fray with a mind gripping story with action worthy of Hollywood movies. Looking forward to the next installment... I hate waiting. :)

Very different than the earlier books
I was
a little disappointed in this one as the first half of the book seemed to just wander without any clear direction. The concept of them running away to Mexico to hide out in a ranch that was a wreck without a roof was just a little off base for a group who were always planning ahead. The second half of the book picked up once they escaped their kidnappers and began racing towards 10 different sites. Ends in a cliff hanger as you have to wait for the second part of the book

They are relic hunters once again
Although still being chased by Pang and Heidy they are back again now trying to head off the illuminati after getting captured by them and finding out what they are really after they are relic hunters once again but haven't a clue as yet what this reward is. It's fast and dangerous getting in to corners there seems no escapes from, but they keep going. A great start to a double story so looking forward to book 2

No where is safe for this team
Just when the team thought they had escaped the clutches of the CIA, the dreaded illuminati get there claws into them. No where is safe for Bodie and the gang. What a great start to this 2 part story, I really can't wait for the next book. If you like books with lots of action and team spirit, washed down with a sense of humour, I would suggest starting from book 1of the relic hunters, you will be glad you did.

Battle after battle
Non stop action from beginning to end, you feel yourself rooting for the thieves to win every time against the Illuminate. Splendidly describing every part of the world, an education on to itself . Looking lforward to book 2.

I love this series. Th relic hunters love adventure, with a little danger.
The Illuminati are giving them their greatest challenge but I have no doubt they will prevail. On to the last five events of the Illuminati duo logo.

Well what a barn stormer that was, action all the way. As ever there are enough twists and turns to even keep Lewis Hamilton happy.

This story was so big the author cut it in two. This is part one. With 5 good and 5 bad sanctums to travel to and explore no wonder the story takes so long. But it’s fascinating reading as they go from one to the other.
The gang have run away from the CIA and are endeavoring to ‘disappear’ and start a new life. But in spite of all their subterfuge and hard work to hide from the CIA, they get found by the Illuminati and things get even worse.
They should have known that they wouldn’t be able to hide forever. No matter how careful they are, something, or someone’s, going to mess them up. And the CIA and others will be just waiting for that moment. Though they did make a good try.
Fave scenes: stealing the bird, no drawbridge, Brodie’s RPG aim and the avalanche.
