Do You like book The Europa Conspiracy (2006)?
Part Indiana Jones, part Mission: Impossible, and with a few elements of Left Behind, Karen Kingsbury's novels, and old-school Biblical epics mixed in, The Europa Conspiracy is an action-packed, Biblically inspired thrill ride. As with the previous books, the heroes are admirable, the villains are perfectly despicable (especially Talon, the big boss), the plot is very engrossing, and one particular long scene right in the middle of the novel is so well-written, it's like watching an action flick on an IMAX screen. The problems are minor; the biggest one is that, although there's plenty of wham-bam thrills that'll spin your head "right 'round like a record," there are also a few slow moments, though the insane action sequences that surround it make it worth the while to read nonetheless. Also, some discussion about human reproduction, as well as a few mildly graphic sequences--though they all are a far cry from the final scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark--make this inappropriate for young children. For those who have read and enjoyed the first two Babylon Rising books, this third installment delivers the thrills that the previous novels had and then some.

The Europa Conspiracy is the third book in the Babylon Rising series. In this book the reader learns more about the characters from the recent books, along with new characters. I would recomend this to anyone who has read the first two books in the Babylon Rising series and enjoyed them.This book starts off with Murphy once again playing one of Methuselah's "games". The prize, just like all of the other times, starts Murphy on a search to find Biblical artifacts. This time, it is the Writing on the Wall.Once again, I liked the action/adventure aspect of this book. Once the reader starts reading, they soon realize that it's hard to stop. Some of the action in this book were Arabian terrorists, emplyed by Talon.If you are a person who likes action/adventure books and have read and enjoyed the other Babylon Rising books, I would recommend this book to you.

This was not a bad read, but not my favourite of all the series. There's a glaring writing error between Chapters 59 and 61 where the aftershock of the earthquake destroys the tunnels and Bingman has gone back for the camera. Murphy thinks Bingman is dead and suddenly he pops up, camera in hand and says "Looking for this Murphy?" and is clearly alive and then in Chapter 61 Isis says, "This has been a terrible day Michael.....and thinking Will was dead..." and then in Chapter 62 first paragraph, "Bingham's miraculous escape from the tunnel..." and then almost to the end of the chapter, "In the restaurant, Murphy and Abrams were catching up"....Murphy said. "I still haven't gotten over the loss of Bingman, he was a really nice man. His death brought to mind...". Did anyone else notice this, or am I going totally bonkers?
