Author didn't do proper research on Aztecs. They weren't anywhere near South America let alone the Amazon. The lost civilization of the Amazon isn't well understood.

Deadly Jungle

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 4, 2020

I’m particularly fond of action adventure stories where the hero faces danger from monsters, creatures and evil men. The Curse of the Viper King is one of those stories featuring a snake larger and older than anyone has encountered, giant spiders who throw deadly webs at their victims, and evil men intent on plundering treasure from a lost pyramid which just happens to be the lair of the snake. Entertaining and fun reading.
Recommend to readers who enjoy the creature feature stories.

Picks up where Monster in the Clouds left off. Grant and Janaina come across a lumber camp while trying to make their way back to civilization. They hope to catch a boat ride back to civilization. But the camp botanist has his own agenda and Grant and Janiana get caught in the middle of it.

I liked it

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 6, 2019

I really liked this book. I could see the 2 main characters doing a whole series of books. The way the author has portrayed their individual characteristics they work well together . It would also make a good tv series.

Last of a trilogy

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 21, 2019

Nonstop action, sympathetic characters, with a light touch of humor. Start in Cavern of the Damned, dust yourself off, fly to Monsters in the Clouds (great monsters!) and finally tumble into this one. Doesn’t let up, doesn’t disappoint.

Great characters. The interplay between the characters is excellent. This story was a fun read. Truly enjoyable. The action scenes interspersed with sarcasm were quite entertaining.

Paleontologist Grant Coleman is back. After battling prehistoric creatures in Cavern of the Damned and Monsters in the Clouds, our modern day Indiana Jones, along with environmentalist Janaina Silva, is lost in the Amazon jungle and, once their boat develops a leak, forced to proceed on foot in a desperate attempt to find their way back to civilisation. They come across a logging camp - exactly the sort of people Janaina hates most for the damage their are doing to the environment. Soon though, that is the least of their worries as they discover that centuries earlier, someone has built a wall - a fragrant one decked with orchids. But is it to keep something in - or keep something out? And why the orchids? All too soon they find out and are faced with a race against time to escape the terrifying, monstrous creatures that are hell bent on killing. A strange and mysterious pyramid could hold some answers but entering that brings a whole new set of dangers. 'Curse of the Viper King' is fast paced, thrilling adventure reminding me of Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park and Conan Doyle's Lost World. It's the sort of story you can lose yourself in completely and is a brilliant successor to the previous two in this series. Looking forward to more adventures with Coleman and Silva
