The Venetian Betrayal by Steve Berry

4.0

Very action packed, thrilling and entertaining.

This time we follow Malone, Cassiopeia and Thorvaldsen in a adventure involving Alexander the Great.

What I like the most about Berry's books is how fast paced they are. He can describe the setting in a way you are transported there but aren't overwhelmed with excessive details. The chapters are short so you want to know what happens in the next one. It's full of twist and turns that keeps you at the edge of your seat. He does a good job mixing real and fictional facts.

The only thing I didn't like was Malone overall involvement, even though he deciphered the clues, he was most of the time the muscle.

I recommend it to those who like Dan Brown's novels, with action, puzzles, mysteries, history and adventure.
Spoiler This one is about a ficticios nation that wants to use biological weapons and then profit from a cure found in Alexander the Great’s tomb. The cure is real, Casiopea is cured from aids thanks to it. In the end the threat is stopped.
