Scottsdale Public Library's Reviews > The Last Kingdom

Steve Berry never disappoints. Kingdom zooms around Europe weaving the Chinese, Germans, the President, CIA, and disgruntled Ex-CIA operatives into a plot that is a hoot. At the core of the plot is plenty of history and another Cipher just to aid the already fast-paced narrative. Berry's hero, Cotton Malone, and a crew of helpers put an end to a Chinese plan to corner rare earth elements and leaves us with another fun fact (there are lots) that made me grin. One of the castles in the intrigue was indeed a model for Walt Disney.

Must read. Fun Read....and best of all, the good guys win. - Tom L.
