The Two Lost Mountains: A Jack West Jr Novel 6

I'm not in anyway prepared to write a review for this book because I can't. I'm too attached to this series and even when bizarre and impossible things happen, I only squeal with joy because I'm all fired up, cheering for my favorite characters.

In the interview at the back of the book, the author says that the first book was published in 2005 and it has been a long journey for him. But it's also been for me because I discovered this series in 2008 and completely fell in love. And even when there was a six year gap between the publication of the third and fourth books, and an eight year gap between my reading them, my love for Jack West Jr. and his family and his mythological adventures never went away.

I'm in awe how the author connected the myths of the Sirens, more mysteries surrounding Imhotep and the Great Sphinx, some absolutely jaw “dropping” moments and a few devastating deaths. Through it all, Jack has to power through when all his enemies are more powerful, more connected and always way ahead of him. He has now got three different factions of villains ahead of him on his next quest and I am feeling quite scared.

Overall, I know this review is a mess but what can I say. I enjoyed it thoroughly, I flew through the book and even loved enjoyed parts of it on audio which was wonderfully narrated. The odds seem stacked against my heroes for the finale and because I can't bear to wait anymore, I'm gonna put my very long planned TBR of March aside and start the final book of this beloved series immediately. Let's see what the Labyrinth has in store for everyone.
