Temple

Deep in the jungles of Peru, the hunt for a legendary Incan idol is underway - an idol that in the present day could be used as the basis for a terrifying new weapon.

Guiding a US Army team is Professor William Race, a young linguist who must translate an ancient manuscript which contains the location of the idol.

What they find is an ominous stone temple, sealed tight. They open it - and soon discover that some doors are meant to remain unopened...

There is no denying it. Matthew Reilly has really arrived"

DAILY TELEGRAPH

'Like Ice Station, Temple is well researched and technically adept.

Diehard action buffs will enjoy'

WHO WEEKLY

"Probably the most breathless read in the history of airport fiction'

AUSTRALIAN BOOKSELLER & PUBLISHER

Praise for ICE STATION:

'It takes a really good action thriller to shove its way into this space, but Ice Station, by Australian writer Matthew Reilly, made it with ease.

What follows are some of the wildest and most sustained battles in an action thriller in a long time"
