About this listen

A city cloaked in a legend too fanciful to be true.
An ancient tribe, who have vowed to protect their Gods until the end of time.
A shipwreck scattered with gold, and drawings of a mythical beast.

Sam Reilly is on the hunt to find an ancient tomb, before El Dorado is lost forever....

Outstanding!

With every book of Cartwright's, I wonder how it could ever be topped. And then he writes another better than the one before. The characters are wonderful. The narrator is awesome. The story is spell bounding. I have listened to them all and each and every one will leave you wanting more!!!
Please never retire this series!
Sincerely,
A Loyal Fan!!!

Hints of history, treasure hunt, and Sam Reilly!

Wow! Take a typical Sam Reilly adventure, add in a great international treasure hunt, and you end up with a masterpiece. This book was a joy from beginning to end. I loved it.

Good Elements

David Gilmore did an awesome job narrating these 82-plus chapters. I was drawn by the sample and anticipated an exciting adventure suspense.
I loved the fantasy element for where the golden pearls came from but after that reveal the story structure failed. Sadly, I would have scanned through the remainder of the story had I been reading the book.

Another well-written, rollicking Sam Reilly advent

The Tomb of El Dorado (Sam Reilly #18), my eighteenth read from author Christopher Cartwright & the eighteenth book in the highly entertaining Sam Reilly series. A well-written rollicking thriller with captivating & well-developed main characters, probably the best in the series to date. Reminds me of the writings of Steve Berry, Dan Brown & James Rollins. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

I enjoyed this book immensely. I am going to miss listening to Sam's adventures.

Thank you for an excellent series of novels. It was truly worth listening to

Another terrific adventure!

The Tomb of El Dorado
Sam Reilly, Book 18
By: Christopher Cartwright
Narrated by: David Gilmore
I love this series! The adventure and characters always have a terrific myth or legend, a bit of paranormal, but lots of action and suspense! It's a cross between a Clive Cussler and Indiana Jones! Never boring!
The narration was excellent as usual!

Another great adventure

Tomb of Eldorado :
Yet more great entertainment from Christopher Cartwright.
Sam and Tom are like old friends and it's always good to catch up on their latest adventure.
The book starts a little slower than usual , but the author cranks up the pace and the tension to its expected high level.
David Gilmore narration is superb as usual, he is the "voice of Sam Reilly books" and I can't imagine anyone else narrating.
Another great book in a great series.

Enjoyed this

If you enjoy reading Clive Cussler and Dan Brown, you'll enjoy Christopher Cartwright's Sam Reilly. He combines Cussler's treasure hunting hero and penchant for historic treasures with Dan Brown's intrigue. 



The book opens in the past with sea-faring explorers discovering strange animals and lots of gold. As is usually the case in these situations, getting back from these explorations is not as easy as getting into these explorations. 

Forward to present day, where Sam and his lady friend are enjoying the sights of Boliva when a tropical storm hits and when its over, Sam discovers a relic from the past. Now, Sam being an explorer himself immediately knows what this clue is and goes in search for more answers. These clues, to find the Tomb of El Dorado take him from Boliva, to Australia and to China, with the required bad guys on his tail.

Now, there were parts of the book where I was confused - whether it was because I was distracted and missed a passage or what I'm not sure, and I think there were times when my amateur editing ears seemed to catch things the author's editor didn't - and this is where a print edition of the book would be handy, to double check to see if I was right, or just hearing things - but overall I thought the plot was good, and the action was good. 

The narrator wasn't bad, although he has to work on his accents. However, it could have been my assumption of the characters 'voice' rather than what it actually was, so I could be wrong.

Overall, I quite enjoyed the novel, and look forward in going backwards and starting from the beginning to see how Sam's character developed, as well as looking forward to the next books out in this series.
