Rating: - Interesting but...
Is it just me or does this book seem to end very abruptly?
Well written with a healthy dose of factual history thrown in but ultimately seems unsatisfying somehow...
There seem to be some holes in the plot(e.g. where's Andropolous during the big fight on the mountain?)
Payne & Jones are good characters altohugh some of the more peripheral ones (Andropolous, Nicholas, even Nick Dial and particularly Jarkko) seem a bit two-dimensional.
An entertaining enough read overall though.

Rating: - fantastic
this book is on the go from the beginning, action, fun and a great story, lots of research went in to this book, and the way that fact and fiction have been mixed together is very well done. Mr Kuzneski is an action writer to watch out for in the future.

Rating: - From across the pond
I became a fan of Chris Kuzneski when I had ran out of other books I was currently reading and saw his "Sign of the Cross". I was hooked.

"The Lost Throne" follows the expected pattern: a secret, short chapters, different guys following the same story from different angels. Those having read his two previous novels one meets again Payne and Jones and Nick Dial.

The book is written with a great flow and indeed makes a gripping yarn, easy to read and not at all boring. The style is however not as flat as it used to be Kuzneski managed to give its eading personalities a bit of depth, even tough that is very so slighty. But he can ... Read More

Rating: - Spellbinding!
Interesting and original plot, believable characters. History, arhaelogy, geography and religion lessons in small portions, easy to digest and never tiring. Good balance of suspence and humour. Well-researched facts. In all, a very enjoyable read, a book that I will certainly read over and over and recommend to my friends.
