This ebook is on sale right now and it‘s a marvelous read. It‘s the best #letterQ book I‘ve read since doing the #LitsyAtoZ challenge. I highly recommend it and I hope to read it again someday. Definitely an action-packed historical thriller.

Two rereads for challenges this month: Rebecca (I‘ve probably read five if not more times, it was a childhood favorite, and this is the $2.95 copy I probably bought as a teenager) for #authoramonth, and the tagged book for #Ethiopia #foodandlit, a previous five-star read I‘d hoped to read again.
I‘m planning what to read for #FoodandLit #Ethiopia and I‘m going to cheat a little bit, and jump at the chance to read this one again, largely set in Ethiopia. It was a huge five-star read for me & see my Mom‘s post-it note raving about it as well if you scroll down the posts for this book. It‘s my fave kind of book and I can‘t wait to revisit it!
Makes sense. 😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #LitsyHumor

Has anyone read this? It‘s another #tbr I have on my shelf.
I️ finished my Q book for #litsyatoz and WOW! What a great book! Very much like my fave author James Rollins: an adventure to solve an ancient mystery, the search for the Holy Grail in war-torn Ethiopia during the early 1970s. Extreme peril along the way. A satisfying conclusion, meaning it wasn‘t rushed and no “deus ex machina.” I️ strongly recommend this book! Two more to go to finish #Litsyatoz: X and V. So close!
Working on my Q book for #litsyatoz. I‘ve never been able to get into a DeMille book but I‘m happy to say this is a first. The “quest” is for the Holy Grail, said to be in an Ethiopian monastery. Unfortunately it is the early 1970s (the book was written slightly later) and Ethiopia is in the midst of a civil war. Think a slightly milder version of a Wilbur Smith book. I‘m 150 pages in and enjoying it so far.
I love a good adventure novel, and the first half of this was great. I struggled with the slow pace of the 2nd. It focused more on a love triangle and had 2 of the most awkward cringe worthy love scenes that I have ever read. The ending was decent and left nothing unanswered. I would be interested in checking out some of his other books.
I haven't read a good grail quest novel in a while. I dug this out of my tbr stack today. It looked interesting enough, so I figured that I'd give it a try.
