Official Review: The Expansion by Christoph Martin

[Janetleighgreen]

I don't mind cliffhangers. I love the thriller mystery genre. I got my copy today. Thank you for such a detailed and interesting review.

Intrigue with mystery, crime, sabotage & murder against a real-life backdrop...what more could you ask for, besides multi-faceted characters?? Oh! It's got that too! Sounds like a real fun read, and a way to learn a few new things as well...thanks!

I'm wondering, tho...since it's a cliffhanger, is this the beginning of a series? Will there be a sequel?

I like stories whereby a high profile secret is being sought. In this case Karis has a one that can completely ruin existence of Max. Congratulations to author Christoph Martin.

The Expansion by Christoph Martin

Really enjoyed reading this book. It's interesting, and lots to learn. I'de rate it 5 out of 5. Easy to understand and its exciting. The introduction alone is intriguing.

[Kalemba]

The Expansion opens with one of the most fast-paced, explosive prologues that I’ve read in a long time. It sets the scene for a novel that is packed full of international espionage, murder, intrigue and the beautiful setting of Panama.

The novel follows British engineer Max Burns as he works on a complex project to expand the Panama Canal. It gives Max the opportunity to work with an old school friend, Godfredo Roco, and his mercurial father Paco. But projects like this are rarely straightforward, and there are forces at work behind the scenes to complicate matters.

Working in Panama also introduces Max to Karis Deen, a research scientist working in the area. Max feels he can trust her, even if he can’t trust anyone else, but Karis has a secret of her own…

Compared to its explosive opening, the first part of The Expansion feels quite slow burning. That makes sense when you consider that this is the first in a series of four books. Christoph Martin is introducing the reader to characters who they will be following through different countries and different challenges. And he gives his characters real depth. In fact it opens ones mind, when you start to write or comment on this book you meet yourself writing a similar copy because you can leave nothing out,

"He delivers his dish of intrigue one delicious bite at a time." After reading this, I'm ready to devour this book.It sure sounds as a delightful entertainment. The only letdown will be the cliffhanger. Nevertheless, it brings out an update to a real situation in Panama, the expansion. Thanks for your amazing review!

Sounds interesting, but I'm not one for history.
