Black Mountain
(5 / 5)
I LOVE THIS SERIES! Mr Beck I salute you! What an exciting ride!
Alex Hunter is back in the 4th instalment of the Alex Hunt/Arcadian series. After surviving the horrible virus he contracted at the end of This Green Hell, Alex awakens in Israel with no memory of who he is or how he got there. Meanwhile back in the USA at Black Mountain, there has been an earthquake and the movement of the mountain has opened a doorway to an ancient cave, where a monster is released from its prison.
OH MY GOODNESS! What a FABULOUS read! Think Matthew Riley on steroids! Absolutely action packed and FANTASTIC!
This is only the second book I have read written by Greig Beck, and it is going to be the second of many I predict! This Green Hell was extremely impressive, and Black Mountain was even better!
Non stop action, thrills, blood, guts, gore, a bit of romance and angst, violence, monsters.
WOW!
Loved the characters! I have a bit of a book crush on Alex Hunter, I just think he is fantastic! But where was Aimee??? I hope she comes back into the story in subsequent books! But it was nice to have a different focus I guess.
Really enjoyed all the different plot lines throughout the story and one of the things I really like about Black Mountain, and find really refreshing, is that it doesn’t exactly have the happy ending vibe that a lot of books have. People you don’t want to die, die… Gruesome and grizzly deaths.
I don’t know what else to say! Black Mountain is just great! If you are a fan of action books absolutely check this series out. I started at the third one and haven’t read the first two yet so you don’t HAVE to start at the first one – Enough of the story is set up throughout the novel so you are not lost at all. However the beginning is always a great place to start.
The audio version?? FANTASTIC!!! Sean Mangan is SO GREAT narrating this series! One of my favourite narrators ever!
Would I recommend it?
YES YES YES!!! Remember where I said non stop action? Thrills? Blood and guts? Gore? Romance and MONSTERS?? If you like that you will love this series!
