Product Description
Fact collides with fiction in Will Adams third pulse-pounding adventure featuring the enigmatic Daniel Knox.
Twenty years after vanishing without a trace, French archaeologist Roland Petitier makes a dramatic reappearance at a major Athens conference, promising an astonishing find - the legendary Golden Fleece.
But before he can give his talk, he’s found dead in a hotel room; and an out-of-control policeman puts Petitier’s onetime protégé Augustin Pascal into intensive care, then later accuses him of Petitier’s murder. Only Augustin’s two closest friends, Daniel Knox and Gaille Bonnard can prove his innocence.
However, rumours of the fleece’s rediscovery have spread, and. ambitious Georgian oligarch Nergadze is determined to get it first.

I've read Adam's last two books and they were fairly good archaeological thrillers.
However, this has a far more unsavoury undertone and that spoilt it for me. If I wanted to purchase a serial type killer novel with rape and pedophile suggestions, that's the novel I would buy. But I don't, I want a fast paced archaeological thriller with twists and turns, secrets and mysteries, or at least be warned that this isn't what it says on the tin.
Disappointing.

This is the first book I have read by this particular author and although it was an okay read I don't think I would rush out to buy more of his books.
I found the constant toing and froing from one character to the next a bit off-putting, although this is a style of writing that I have read with other authors before and never had a problem with it. In the case of The Lost Labyrinth I found that this particular style made it a very difficult book to get into.

I did not enjoy this book as much as the other two. I didn't like the psychopathic character. The archeology was thin on the ground and the ending was not what I wanted to happen. I hope the next book improves.

Another enjoyable book
Another one of the set which are a great read on the train to work and while waiting at station.

NOT Dan Brown
OK I was swayed by the "if you liked Dan Brown, you'll love Will Adams" tag line. So I'm THAT stupid, but even so I still found this whole dreadful book terribly boring pointless... Read more

Lost Labyrinth
I enjoyed reading this Wills Adam novel, but it's not quite as good as his earlier ones, perhaps he rushed it. The Exodus Quest and the Alexander one were much pacier. Read more

Not in any way an archeaological thriller.
Adams' first two books weren't too bad. They showed the main characters flawed but generally heroic, and the history and archaeology aspects were the main driving force of the... Read more

Unnecessary and detailed violence
I really like archeology/mithological themed books. This, however, is neither of those. The archeology is just a disguise to endless descriptions of the main "bad guy"'s crimes. Read more
