I have to say I had high expectations of this novel following on from the crowning star of adventure novels -“Masks of the Lost Kings” and it’s kickass heroine Suzy da Silva, if “Cauldron of the Lost Ancestors” was worthy of that crown, then it had a steep hill to climb. Well I have to say, it matches it’s predecessor and in some elements surpasses it. The pace is tighter and the plot is razor sharp, the dialogue packs more of a punch and the martial arts scenes get you on the edge of your seat. If you like thrillers you’ll love this, if you are passionate about adventure you’ll dream about it, if you’re infatuated by suspense, you won’t be able to put this down, this book delivers and it is well written with some really beautiful passages. You can read this book on two levels, as a superlative piece of fiction or as a collage of complex conspiracies and extraordinary facts, either way it keeps you engrossed. Hats off to Tom Bane!
