> Fiction Books > General Books

It is the biggest treasure hunt in history, and nearly every nation on earth is involved in a headlong race to locate the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. Thousands of years ago, a magnificent golden capstone sat atop the Great Pyramid of Giza. It was a source of immense power, capable of bestowing upon its holder absolute global rule for a thousand years But then, in 323 BC, the capstone was broken into seven pieces and spread to the corners of the Earth, hidden within the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World. Now, with the coming of a rare solar event, the time has come to locate the pieces and rebuild the capstone. Everyone wants it. From the greatest, most powerful countries on Earth, to gangs of evil terrorists and one daring coalition of eight small nations who think no single country should possess such an awesome power source. And so, led by the mysterious Captain Jack West Jr, this determined group enters into an adventure beyond imagining.

About the Author: Matthew Reilly

Matthew John "Matty" Reilly is an Australian action and thriller writer. His novels are noted for their fast pace, twisting plots, and intense action.
Reilly was a law student at the University Of New South Wales when he wrote his first book, Contest. After being rejected by nearly every major publisher in Australia, Reilly borrowed some money and printed 1000 copies himself. Reilly went to a bookstore in Sydney and asked if he could place the copies on one of their book shelves. They accepted the offer and placed them up. Very shortly after, the books had sold out and the owner of the bookstore called Reilly to order more books.
An editor for Pan Macmillan read one, and the rest is history. Reilly has gone on to become an international best seller. Reilly has now written more than a dozen books, and several short stories.
He has made an 11 minute trailer for a film version of Contest, and hopes to secure funding for a full length feature, directed by himself.
