In pursuit of three lost gems that could unleash an ancient power, Gabriel Hunt travels to Borneo, Turkey, and the Kalahari Desert with the deadly Cult of Anatolia hot on his trail. From Publishers Weekly Drawing firmly on the pulp tradition but never shying away from the latest and most improbable gadgetry, Gabriel Hunt's third adventure (after 2009's Hunt Through the Cradle of Fear) proves him a contemporary heir to Indiana Jones, Bruce Wayne and Travis McGee. Kaufmann's storytelling, all action and little introspection, enhances the autobiographical conceit as anthropologist-archeologist Hunt, backed by the fiscal resources of the Hunt Foundation and his brother's extensive research library, travels to Borneo in search of Joyce Wingard, a family friend who disappeared while working on her doctorate and searching for information on an ancient Hittite weapon. Readers willing to suspend disbelief and embrace a touch of the supernatural (not to mention millennia-old death cults whose members engage the protagonists in hand-to-hand combat in the 21st century) will enjoy Hunt's romp across several continents |

A mission to Antarctica to find a missing scientist takes a shocking turn when Gabriel Hunt and the scientist’s beautiful daughter discover a secret valley and the ruthless civilization that inhabits it. From Booklist Each volume in the Gabriel Hunt adventure series, all purportedly written by protagonist Hunt, has a different real-life author. Doing the honors this time is Christa Faust (Money Shot, 2008). Fresh from recovering a necklace for a museum, adventurer extraordinaire Hunt wants to take some time and relax. When he gets home, however, a gorgeous woman is waiting for him and pleads for his help in rescuing her father, who disappeared on an expedition in Antarctica. With a team of people he can trust, Hunt leads a rescue effort in the coldest place on Earth. This series is intended as a kind of homage to the pulp-adventure novels of the early twentieth century, and Hunt makes the perfect over-the-top hero, combining the sexiness and savoir faire of James Bond with the derring-do of Indiana Jones. Nonstop action, combined with the flamboyant style typical of the early pulps (think Doc Savage) make this super-quick read perfect for beach or travel. Familiarity with the previous installments is not necessary, but they will be sought out after finishing this one. |

The warlord’s men came to New York to preserve a terrible secret – and left a dead body in their wake. Now Gabriel Hunt is on their trail, a path that will take him to the treacherous alleyways and rooftops of Shanghai and a showdown with a madman out to resurrect a deadly figure from China’s past… From Booklist This very entertaining series of adventure novels rolls merrily along. This one, credited as usual to its hero (but really written by horror novelist and screenwriter David J. Schow), finds Hunt heading off to China on a mission of mercy. Seems that a close friend of Hunt's sister is up on a charge of murder, but the real villain appears to be a Chinese financier who's up to some serious no good. Aside from helping out his sister, Hunt is also very interested in the possibility that a fabled treasure (some incredibly valuable nineteenth-century terra-cotta warriors created by “the Vlad the impaler of Chinese history”) might actually exist. The Hunt novels are old-fashioned thriller-adventures with a modern touch— guns that shoot acid bullets, Twitter, that sort of thing. Gabriel Hunt, the wealthy adventurer who charges headlong into danger armed only with his wits and a Colt Peacemaker (circa 1880), is a great character, cut very much from the Indiana Jones cloth but not by any means a pale imitation of Indy. This is a fine series, and adventure fans will look forward to many more tales of Hunt. |

Of all the priceless treasures Gabriel Hunt has sought, none means more to him than the one drawing him to the rugged terrain of Corsica and the exotic streets of Marrakesh: his own sister’s life. To save her, Hunt will have to challenge the mind of a tyrant two centuries dead—the calculating, ingenious Napoleon Bonaparte... From Publishers Weekly In his pulpy sixth adventure (after Hunt Among the Killers of Men), millionaire playboy/archeologist Gabriel Hunt takes on the Alliance of Pharaohs, a shady group that wants all of Egypt's ancient artifacts returned to Egypt. Gabriel's sister, Lucy, has been kidnapped; as ransom, the culprits want Gabriel to find a long-lost second Rosetta Stone stolen by Napoleon. Gabriel swashbuckles through the streets of Cairo, Marrakech, and Corsica with Sammi, a beautiful street magician. The duo have to avoid Corsican guards and the traps set by Napoleon while keeping the artifact out of the alliance's hands. Despite his experience writing James Bond novels, Raymond Benson's venture under the Hunt shared pseudonym is slow out of the gate and so chock-full of details and lists that the pulse-pounding never quite takes. |
