Críticas:

'Complex and fast-moving thriller writing, delivered with a great deal of dash, and shades of The Da Vinci Code' -- Good Book Guide on THE TEMPLAR LEGACY 'A major twist... the puzzles are so much fun... radical thinking of the Gospels that's sure to spark some lively debate ... pretty grabby stuff' -- Wall Street Journal on THE TEMPLAR LEGACY 'Not to be missed. Anagrams and complicated symbology... a complex, well-written, and extremely readable story.' -- Library Journal on THE TEMPLAR LEGACY 'Pure intrigue. Pure fun.' -- Clive Cussler on Steve Berry 'Writes with the self-assured style of a veteran' -- Dan Brown 'Steve Berry is a writer on the rise.' -- David Morrell, author of NIGHTSCAPE and CREEPERS 'Conspiracies and plots abound ... Berry handles his thriller tradecraft skilfully, [and] his descriptions are stellar.' -- Booklist on THE THIRD SECRET 'Sexy, illuminating ... my kind of thriller.' -- Dan Brown on THE AMBER ROOM 'International intrigue, swashbuckling action, indestructible hero from the American South... Not to be missed.' -- Kirkus Reviews, on THE ROMANOV PROPHECY

Reseña del editor:

Steve Berry returns with a heart-stopping adventure that places Cotton Malone and his family in grave peril - and puts Cotton face-to-face with a baffling truth long ago pulled from the shelves of the legendary Library of Alexandria. The Library of Alexandria was the most ambitious and important collection of ancient knowledge ever assembled. The building stood for 600 years and at its high point contained more than 500,000 manuscripts. Fifteen hundred years ago, it vanished. No archaeological trace of the main library has ever been unearthed. Now, Cotton Malone's ex-wife appears at his doorstep, panicked: their son has been kidnapped. Minutes later, Malone's bookshop is attacked - all because he's the only man alive who knows the whereabouts of the Alexandria link, the conduit for locating the missing library. But finding that lost cache of knowledge, truths hidden away for a millenium and a half, will have grave consequences - both for Malone and for the balance of world power.
