Matthew Reilly

Soldier Jack West, Jr., and his elite team work to counter the efforts of a dark cabal that has been steadily undermining their past efforts with the intent of staging a catastrophic attack.

The Six Sacred Stones

The world is in mortal danger. For Jack West Jr and his loyal team of heroes, the challenge now is to set six legendary diamonds known as "the Pillars" in place at six ancient sites around the world before the deadline for global destruction arrives. The location of these sites, however, can only be revealed by the fabled Six Sacred Stones. With only the riddles of ancient writers to guide them, and time rapidly running out, Jack and his team must fight their way past traps, labyrinths and a host of deadly enemies - knowing that this time they cannot, will not, must not, fail. The mission is incredible. The consequence of failure is unimaginable. The ending is unthinkable.
