About this title

Review:

"A fine addition to a popular series, this volume sends the three main characters into adventures that they can survive only by relying on one other. Series fans will enjoy the dialogue and camaraderie as much as the action." (Booklist)

"It's clever, it has some great tension and when backed with the authors flamboyant writing style alongside his grasp of tactics and strong characters makes this a title that was hard to put down . . . It's a title that really will please as well as enthuse the reader for more. Great stuff." (tattystreasurechest.blogspot.com)
