Book Review: The Ancient Secrets Book 2 The Extinction Threat

The 2nd book in the series, opens in the past where an ancient civilization known today as the Indus Valley civilization was fighting to survive an invisible enemy that was killing their people. They had no way of fighting this invisible killer other than praying to their gods for help and burning the dead. Later we jump to the present day where Elliot the archeologist is back in London along with Ashra trying to relax after the last adventure.

Ashra tried to resign from the Napal version of the FBI when she received a call that some artifacts were stolen from a museum that has been tracked to London, and she has been tasked with finding the artifacts and whoever stole them. Once Ashra starts looking into the case, she soon realizes that she will need Elliott to understand the artifacts that were stolen and why.

They are soon running for their lives again this time from a group that wants to harness whatever killed the people of the Indus valley. Someone is trying to change the world through a plague, and they must find a way to stop him and stay alive.

On my scale of 1 to 5, a 1 being doesn’t bother and a 5 a real page turner. I’m going to give The Extinction Threat a solid 5. This book and the series so far are highly engaging with great story lines, strongly developed characters, great plots and surprising twists throughout at the end.
