The Alexandria Link

ISBN-13: 978-0345485762
Cotton Malone’s teenage son has been kidnapped, and an anonymous e-mail from those responsible proves they will stop at nothing to get their hands on the coveted prize: the legendary lost Library of Alexandria, which vanished fifteen hundred years ago, its untold secrets rumored to hold the keys to ultimate power. Pursued by lethal mercenary, Malone crosses the globe in search of this vast bounty of wisdom. His quest will lead him to England and Portugal, even to the highest levels of American government - and shattering outcome , deep in the Sinai desert, will have worldwide repercussions.
Berry did it again. Since reading his The Third Secret book, he has been one of my sought after writer. I like the way he writes, the story is smoothly narrated and you don’t want to put down the book .
In The Alexandria Link, the main focus was the of course the library of Alexandria which holds the most or the greatest treasure of all: Knowledge. Unfortunately, it is lost forever, the works of the worlds greatest minds. And then there is the story of the Old and the New Testament, now am not going to elaborate on that, spoils the fun in reading.
A great read.
