Overview

The sixth electrifying thriller in the Jack West, Jr. series from New York Times-bestselling author Matthew Reilly

AN INCREDIBLE VICTORY BUT AT A TERRIBLE PRICE

Against all the odds, Jack West Jr. found the Three Secret Cities, but at a heartbreaking cost. His beloved daughter Lily, it appeared, was slaughtered by Sphinx in a cruel ancient ritual.

TO THE MOUNTAINS AND THE FALL!

With his rivals far ahead of him, Jack must now get to one of the five iron mountains—two of which have never been found—and perform a mysterious feat known only as 'The Fall'. Although what is this object on the moon that is connected to it?

A NEW PLAYER ARRIVES

Amid all this, Jack will discover that a new player has entered the race, a general so feared by the four legendary kingdoms they had him locked away in their deepest dungeon. Only now this general has escaped and he has a horrifying plan of his own.

Editorial Reviews

05/24/2021

The stakes couldn’t be higher in bestseller Reilly’s over-the-top sixth thriller starring Jack West Jr. (after 2018’s The Three Secret Cities). In less than a week, Jack and his oddball team of adventurers, whose members have silly names like Pooh Bear and Sky Monster, must prevent the Omega Event, in which the universe will stop expanding and “collapse inward in an all-consuming rush, withdrawing into a singularity, destroying every planet, every star, every single thing in existence.” The frantic, predictable plot includes numerous perils, the destruction of religious landmarks, and the fortuitous discovery of a secret letter written by Albert Einstein that may offer hope for stopping the Omega Event. Reilly doesn’t sweat the details, such as explaining why Einstein made only one attempt to warn of the disaster-to-come, or how a nun survived being eaten alive by eight cannibals as long as she did before succumbing. Clearly, the complete suspension of disbelief is the order of the day. This is for devoted series fans only. (May)

Publishers Weekly

'"Reilly has crafted a fantastic follow-up to The Four Legendary Kingdoms. The clever mix of history, mythology and geography make this one of the best action-thrillers published in the past few years." —Washington Post on The Three Secret Cities

"Buckle in and enjoy the ride. Another spectacularly fun romp from the reigning master of high-concept adventure!" —Booklist starred review of The Four Legendary Kingdoms


"Think of it as watching an Indiana Jones film on a moving roller coaster!" —Library Journal on The Five Greatest Warriors


"The wildly imaginative Reilly has taken inspiration from comics, video games, thrillers and Code-style puzzle novels to create this rocket-fueled sequel to his 7 Deadly Wonders...A tongue-in-cheek quality (one that extends to the low-tech looking maps and illustrations) will help readers find this outlandish adventure thrilling." —Publishers Weekly  on The Six Sacred Stones


"Nobody writes action like Matthew Reilly." —Vince Flynn on Seven Deadly Wonders
