I received this book as an Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts, opinions, and quirky takes are entirely my own—because no one else can read between the spines quite like I do. Big thanks to NetGalley and William Morrow for the ARC—and for fueling my TBR problem.
📖 Best described as:
A fast-paced run through several countries looking for the secret to everlasting life. Who wouldn’t want to join the hunt?
🎭 Mood & Vibes:
Rollins, as he does, created a tight and fast novel ready to entertain those seeking:
- fact blended with fiction (Comte de Saint-Germain, immortality, alchemy)
- witchcraft, spiritualism, and folklore
- young adult (college age) protagonists
- traipsing through England, Italy, and Malta in the search for missing treasure and secrets
🏆 Standout Element:
Rollins never disappoints. He masterfully weaves the history and factual information into his stories in a way that makes it hard to pick out exactly what might be fact versus fiction. Readers get a peek inside each character while always questioning who might actually be the one(s) to trust.
🤔 Who would love this?
Anyone who has read anything by James Rollins.
Anyone who wants to feel the intense tension in the search for something that can either save or destroy humanity.
Anyone who wants a fast paced read that will keep them on the edge of their seat.
🎬 Final Verdict:
It is an absolute must read for any adventure fiction reader!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 – Instant Classic (Memorable, impactful, and worth revisiting.)
