I am an avid reader and a stickler for detail. This author did an outstanding job on research and accuracy. The plot structure is a ranging arch which keeps one step ahead of the readers immagination. It is no doubt the most entertaining book I have ever read. I could not put it down. If I were to place this book in a genera, I could not. It has something for everyone. It easily compares to the Lord of the Rings, Stranger In A Strange Land, and even Star Wars with Indian Jones tossed in the mix. This novel is the beginning of a legend which begins with the ancient Maya and takes you to the far reaches of the universe. I hope to read more by this outstanding author.

The fact that Mr. Alexander draws from his own life experiences gives the reader candid excitement throughout the novel. His passion for giving us realistic sequences allows us to feel the movement of every action packed moment during the first episodes; strategically placed from the jungle whacking slinging blades, to creepy crawling worms, illusive natives, and titillating romantic interludes. This author offers us adventure to satisfy the longing desires of the heart. He explores the curious nature of our minds in creating an ever present struggle between good and evil offering us his innovative lust for life. The final episode approaches the unknown we all venture to understand, and embrace. It widens the horizon to each of us as individual seekers of truth. I give the book a grand applause for touching every sensation ignited from the written word.

The Sabastian Cane Chronicles
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book about the exploits of Sabastian Cane. The author takes his readers on an action-packed thrill ride and barely gives you time to catch your breath from episode to episode. The characters are well-developed, the locations are spectacular, and the plot has enough twists and turns in it to keep you on the edge of your seat. This has all of the elements of being a major Hollywood blockbuster!
