The Tenth Circle by Jon Land - Review.

The Tenth Circle - Jon Land

Coming 24th December from Open Road Integrated Media

 

Thanks to the author and publisher for the review copy via Netgalley.

 

Blaine McCracken races to stop terrorists from unleashing an ancient weapon of unimaginable power at the president’s State of the Union speech.

1590: An entire colony of British settlers vanishes from their settlement on Roanoke Island, seemingly into thin air.
1872: The freighter Mary Celeste is found drifting at sea off Gibraltar, its entire crew and passengers gone missing without a trace.
What if there’s a connection between two of the greatest historical mysteries ever?

 

So an interesting premise as always for this, the latest Blaine McCracken thriller (I have dipped in and out of this series on occasion) and perhaps the best one that I have read so far for pure page turning madness.

 

Jon Land has a gift for blending the mythical with the material and this is no exception – starting us off with a bitesize view of the historical Roaonoke and Marie Celeste disappearances, forwarding through history to bring us bang up to date to the world of today where dangerous and enigmatic Reverend Jeremiah Rule preaches his messages of hate – we are set for Blaine McCracken to face perhaps his most formidable enemy yet.

 

From then on in its a rollercoaster ride of madness and mayhem as Blaine and the usual suspects try to stop the unthinkable, survive the experience and bring down a man who is more dangerous than even those manipulating him know..can Blaine save the world once more? Ah well. We will see.

 

Terrific writing as usual, a fast paced joyride of a novel that will make your heart pound and give your brain a work out. Recommended for fans of Thrillers with a twist.

 

Happy Reading Folks!
