Meet Morgan Sierra. Ex-Israeli military psychologist, specialist in religious cults at Oxford University, Krav Maga expert ... and now recruited to work for ARKANE, a secret British government agency investigating supernatural mysteries around the world. Includes the first 3 full-length ARKANE thriller novels. STONE OF FIRE #1 INDIA. When a nun is burned alive on the sacred ghats of Varanasi and the stone she carried is stolen, an international hunt is triggered for the relics of the early church. Morgan Sierra is forced into the search when her sister and niece are held hostage. She's helped by Jake Timber from the mysterious ARKANE. Morgan must risk her own life to save her family, but will she ultimately be betrayed? From ancient Christian sites in Spain, Italy and Israel to the far reaches of Iran and Tunisia, Morgan and Jake must track down the stones through the myths of the early church before the fires of evil are summoned again. CRYPT OF BONE #2 The prophecy in Revelation declares that a quarter of the world must die ... ISRAEL. A man jumps to his death from the top of the Western Wall, his body smashed on the ancient stones. Another disembowels himself under the scrawled figure of the Pale Horse of the Apocalypse. As she investigates the deaths, Morgan Sierra becomes embroiled in an international conspiracy that will use technology to carry an ancient curse to mankind. Working with ARKANE agent Jake Timber, they hunt down the Devil's Bible, pursued all the way by the evil forces of Thanatos. From the catacombs of Paris to the skeletal ossuaries of Sicily and the Czech Republic, Morgan and Jake must find the Devil's Bible and stop the curse being released into the world before one in four are destroyed in the coming holocaust. Because in just seven days, the final curse will be spoken and the prophecy will be fulfilled. ARK OF BLOOD #3 EGYPT. The curator of the Museum of Antiquities is ritually murdered by a group wearing the masks of Ancient Egyptian deities. USA. In Washington DC, a decapitated head is placed on a replica Ark of the Covenant with a chilling message that warns of a terrifying escalation of violence in the Middle East. Morgan Sierra must race against time to find the real Ark, while her nemesis, the vicious mercenary Natasha, is in the hunt and out for bloody revenge. Morgan travels across Egypt, Jordan and back to London, following a trail of clues that takes her into the mists of history - and mortal danger.

J.F. Penn has created a wonderful world with the ARKANE novels. These books encompass everything you could wish for in a suspenseful action thriller. ARKANE is the shadowy organization that winds its threads around the world. With rare antiquities, high-speed chases, shadowy alleyways, exotic locales, mysterious journals and amazingly researched detail, these are books you will not want to miss. Each of these alone are well worth the price of admission, but to get the first three entries in the series in one beautiful boxed set is a rare treat indeed.

Comparisons will be made to Indiana Jones, Sydney Bristow and Alex Archer’s “Rogue Angel” series; however, nothing can really prepare you for the exquisite experience these novels will bring to you. The amount of research is staggering, but it is interwoven with the fast-paced plot in a way that it never becomes overwhelming or burdensome. The characterizations are a bit deeper than you might expect from these types of stories since the author gives a bit of background history to each of the main players and this helps bring them into focus much more clearly and clarifies their motivations.

This boxed set contains “Stone of Fire” (Pentecost), “Crypt of Bone” (Prophecy) and “Ark of Blood” (Exodus). As each novel unfolds, you’re drawn further and further into this mysterious labyrinth of mazes, puzzles and truly arcane treasures. Blame it on Nancy Drew as my first foray into the pleasures of reading, but my stories must have mystery, adventure, hidden doorways and secret clues. This series of books by J.F. Penn has all this and more. I couldn’t have conjured up a more satisfying or perfect series of books if I had custom-ordered them myself.

**I was given a free copy of this set by the author in exchange for an honest review** ( )
