This is another Wallace Boys book (check out wallaceboysbooks.com/ ) that takes place in the Southeast Asia area. The boys are again sailing with their friends from Singapore and get involved in a mystery relating back to World War 2 featuring a thrilling adventure on an island with an unexploded bomb. There is also a lot of scuba diving as they search for contraband treasure on a sunken Japanese warship. This is not a series to be missed! It's terrific!
For some reason, when I get to the end of a series, I get bored towards the last 100 pages or so because I can guess what happens, or its because I don't want it to end and hence go in to denial. ANYWAYS. This has been one fun journey, this series was creative and to be honest, quiet bloody, raunchy and incestuous in parts. Though the incest is over soon enough in the last 200 pages or so. I'll give Clare one thing, she wrote forbition love at its finest and then decided to clear it up at the end which I guess is good, love that's 'wrong' can end in complete disaster or complete bliss. Though I love Jace Wayland, I'm not really in love with him like everyone else, I do however have decided I adore Simon Lewis. It's not because he's a vampire. It's because he's Jewish he's the "almost perfect" best friend who is a complete nerd and becoming a vampire is not his cup of tea what so ever. The ending was epic and I'm sad its all over, plus I can't do a re-read because my first two copies are in Thailand! ;( I do hope that some one buys the rights and makes this series in to a kick ass movie!
A compelling, often overlooked history of America's expansion westward across the Pacific to Hawaii, the Philippines, and the Asian mainland. It is also a frightening discourse on the role racism played in early 20th century foreign policy, and the calamitous potential for ethnocentrism on the global stage.
