A TRAGIC DISAPPEARANCE
After a harrowing, otherworldly confrontation on the shores of Exmouth, Massachussetts, Special Agent A.X.L. Pendergast is missing, presumed dead.
A SHOCKING RETURN
Sick with grief, Pendergast’s ward, Constance, retreats to her chambers beneath the family mansion at 891 Riverside Drive–only to be taken captive by a shadowy figure from the past.
AN INTERNATIONAL MANHUNT
Proctor, Pendergast’s longtime bodyguard, springs to action, chasing Constance’s kidnapper through cities, across oceans, and into wastelands unknown.
BUT IN A WORLD OF BLACK AND WHITE, NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS
And by the time Proctor discovers the truth, a terrifying engine has stirred-and it may already be too late . . .
Preston and Child never disappoint, and The Obsidian Chamber is no exception Stutters just a bit early on, but then smooths out and roars to a nail-biter of a finish. Preston and Child never disappoint, and The Obsidian Chamber is no exception. I recommend it. BE SURE to read “Crimson Shore” before this one, otherwise you’ll have no clue what’s going on.
Absolutely Pendergast I have been listening to the Audible versions of the last few Pendergast books, so much so that now when I switch to reading them, I hear the voice of René Auberjonois. The reading of these books is as brilliant as Jim Dale’s performance of the Harry Potter series. No one else could do it. No one else could do it so well.Â
A nice read. Good story A nice read. Good story, but, imho, not the best they’ve written. But as always, the open ending leaves you wishing for more.
