I have listened to several of the books in this series, one after the other, and have been struck by the similarities between them, which gets rather tedious.
The basic concept of them all is an ancient artefact being sought by an evil entity and Maddock and his team (and a beautiful woman of course) have to reach it first to stop it being used for evil purposes. There are variations on this theme, but not significant ones.
The first book that I listened to was quite exciting with some good action passages, but by book 3 I found that I was having difficulty remembering which story I was listening to and got rather confused.
I can't blame the author for finding a good concept and re-using it, but for me there just wasn't enough difference between the books to keep me enthralled.

Fun but rather silly

I loved the narration of Jeffrey Kafer, he has a great voice, that makes you want to listen to more.

Dane, saves a divers life. Jade who is a professor at a university in Utah and Bones is joined by Amanda, a reporter. There common enemy is called the Dominion.

We have fast paced action, clues to find the final treasure. It is here in Zion Park that they have the fight for their lives to survive not only the Dominion but creatures that live in the depth of the caverns in Zion Park.

There is adventure, danger, intrigue and a little romance through in for good measure.

I enjoyed this book. It's a treasure hunting adventure in the same vein as Indiana Jones or Dirk Pitt. Where the hero gets the girl, finds the unfindable treasure and beats the bad guys but like all good action adventures it's the journey of how they got there more than the discovery in it's self. Especially as in the words of "Bones" Bonebrake there aren't going to be many wonders of the world left at the rate that they are going. You have got to love a good sidekick. Dane is a pretty great main character too. The story starts with are two hero's doing there own thing, so the story does jump around following each of them until they discovery they are coming at the same problem from different sides, then the adventure and bullets really start to fly. This is the 3rd book in the series but having jumped around in the series I feel safe in saying that they work well as standalones and it is only the girlfriends or people needing help that changes.
When Jade Ihara gets into trouble while diving Dane Maddock is there to lend a hand. In doing so he get more than he bargained for and finds himself on another treasure hunt, follow clues that have lain hidden for years. His partner and best friend Bones also finds himself in a treasure hunt and running for his life when his cousin gets attacked on a dig site and the Dominion hunting him. The pair join forces and together joined by an archaeologists and a news reporter they travel though the desert in search of seven hidden treasures, which once put together will rock the world. They are close pursued by deadly foes who will do anything to beat them to the secret and the reward.
I like the narrator. He makes the story entertaining and the adventure fly by.

This was a definite improvement on the first book. It was action packed but had a much better pace this time around. New characters were added and a little twist was added into the mix for an enjoyable story.

An enjoyable adventure
