I just got the book, and will start it tonight!!

When I looked for a book for a different challenge I was shocked to discover the GR page number for this book with 738 - luckily it was incorrect (I replaced the page # with the one from Amazon) though still plan to start it during this weekend.

I've read read The Bishop's Pawn a few years ago (published as #13, but chronologically #1) and enjoyed it a lot so I have high hopes.

I'm about 30% done, and I really, really like this book! It's a great pick you made, Danielle!

Cotton Malone is a great character in most of Berry's books.

It wasn't me who made the nomination, but I'm glad you're enjoying it!

I just finished reading this, and I thought it was great! So interesting and exciting, with a cool ending. I'm going to look for another Steve Berry book with Cotton Malone.

Thank you to whomever recommended this!

I've not got far in the last couple of weeks. After loving the chronologically frist book in series I struggle with this one very much. I'm aware my issue is mainly because of the very negative view of Christianity. I won't give up on this book yet but won't force it to fiinish it within the next week.
I hope when the basics are completed I'll like it as much as I liked the previous one.

Hi Agnieszka, I can understand where you're coming from. I don't enjoy books if they speak negatively about my beliefs or if the content is negative about something I value. The Templar Legacy doesn't change its tone on Christianity, so keep that in mind.

My personal feeling on it is that if I'm not enjoying a book, I don't finish it and I move on to the next one (there are lots of other books that I would enjoy reading). But I know that lots of people don't like that approach and want to finish a book.

Whatever you do, I hope you just have fun reading!

The only reason I'm willing to struggle through is because I've heard so much great stuff about this series and I can learn a lot while reading it. Usually I'm willing to give up on a book (even if it's still difficult for me) but I loved The Bishop's Pawn a lot and don't want miss any of the inter-relationship development in case I want read future books in series.
