The Emperor's Tomb by Steve Berry
5.0
An exhausting thriller as most of this genre can be. Exhausting in a good way since no normal human can do everything at such a breakneck speed and endure, so the reader can just go along for the ride and imagine.
I enjoy Steve Berry's books since each one is a history lesson. This time it's about Chinese history divulged over the course of the story as Cotton and a flame from the past, Cassiopeia, search for the kidnapped son of a Russian scientist and an ancient relic that will allow China to become independent of foreign oil producers.
There's plenty of rollercoaster thrills with ancient artifacts and brotherhoods, history galore, and everyone after the same thing for differing reasons. Bullets an swords fly.
Definite recommend.
