Today, I’m happy to say I am bringing my review for The Logos Prophecy by Martin Treanor on behalf of Literally PR. Thanks to both LitPR and Martin Treanor for the copy of the book to take part.
Synopsis
Ary Long is a conspiracy theorist, Jordan Burke is a science guy – and never the twain shall meet… until, through chance encounter and a bizarre symbol, their lives take an extraordinary turn
Thrown together by a mysterious group and hunted by their bitter enemies, the unlikely pair scour the globe searching for the roots of the ancient symbol, uncovering the reality behind the existing world order and the arcane, metaphysical wisdom known as Logos.

HISTORY IS NOT WHAT YOU BELIEVE
Whenever I see a book that involves conspiracy theories, ancient symbols, texts, or artefacts, I have to read it. The Logos Prophecy is a conspiracy thriller with spades. From an author I haven’t come across before so I had no idea what to expect. Well! I want to read book number two in this series now.
As soon as I saw the synopsis for The Logos Prophecy, I knew I wanted to read it. When I started it, I didn’t realise just how much it would hook me. I was sucked into the world that Martin Treanor had built and so much invested in Ary and Jordan. They are the chosen ones who travel far and wide to attempt to discover the meaning of a symbol they have found. The Logos is connected to London, Peru, New York, and even Cambodia as they do their utmost to save civilisation.
I got so immersed in this adventure that I read it in less than two days (would have been one, but family gets in the way!). I really got behind Ary and Jordan, two truly different characters. Ary is definitely one to stand up for herself, and she is so curious to know everything. Jordan is the careful one, so intellectual, and there are times they clash, which makes for entertaining scenes as the story develops.
Fast paced and crammed with ancient mysteries, myths, religions, and everything that I find, oh, so interesting. The twists just increase the intrigue along the way, too. I loved this adventure and am waiting oh, so impatiently for Fall Of The Ancients Book 2!
