Saying that the Codex seems to play more of a secondary role in the book, as opposed to the whole military operation, which tends to be at the forefront all of the time.
I would have enjoyed more emphasis on the Codex and the possible repercussions. Instead there are long winded explanations of the motivations and reasoning of suicide bombers.
This book features a recurring character in Jacobsen's books. Karen Vail is drawn into the investigation about terrorism, which in turn links to the missing scroll.
The one thing I can say is that it is continuous action from the beginning until the end. So definitely something for readers who enjoy a fast-paced action type thriller with strong police and military procedures.
Buy The Lost Codex at Amazon UK or go to Goodreads for any other retailer.
