Reviews
Another Bad Sequel
2By GatehallWhile the historical aspect was nicely addressed, this was a poor follow up to the first book. The plot twists were too manufactured to the point of being silly. He also managed to somehow conceptualize the biggest possible pansy of a CIA agent. I couldn't wait to be done with this. What a piece of junk.The Templar Salvation

4By mazzam25Another great thrilling novel by N Khoury!Terrific action!
5By stevethedogguyThis is a must read for historical adventure fans. Khoury fills this book with non-stop action and historical puzzles that capture the reader's imagination. From the Vatican to the backwoods of Turkey, the plot is riveting and difficult to put down. This is by far the best Templar adventure I've read since it actually provides a basis for the Templar origins. If only it were true!The Templar Salvation
1By Tbone607Extremely formulaic...endless fights, zero character development all enveloped in what could have been an intriguing historical mystery action book. Had to literally skip pages every time the book came to yet another fist fight/knife fight or shoot out between our superman hero and our equally talented bad guy...arrgh!
