To say that finding this treasure is to be a disheartening job is an understatement, but Sam and Remi prove they can manage the task.
Stuffed with intrigue, and plenty of suspense...The Kingdom is a great book to read when you just wish to run away from it all. There are tons of plot twists, impossible scenarios, and absolutely unbelievable strokes of good luck thrown into this story. However let's not forget the book is a made up story...and that is why it proves so much fun.
We don't read books because expect everything to be perfect with timelines, character development, and pacing...we read fiction books to be entertained and give us a short lived escape from our busy realities of everyday life. The Kingdom from writer Clive Cussler has proved to be just that ,, an enjoyable and fun to read break from the day to day we all live with.
