SCOTT MARIANI
Star of Africa
âDeadly conspiracies, bone-crunching action and a tormented hero with a heart ⦠Scott Mariani packs a real punchâ
Andy McDermott,bestselling author of The Revelation Code
âSlick, serpentine, sharp, and very very entertaining. If youâve got a pulse, youâll love Scott Mariani; if you havenât, then maybe you crossed Ben Hopeâ
Simon Toyne, bestselling author of the Sanctus series
âScott Marianiâs latest page-turning rollercoaster of a thriller takes the sort of conspiracy theory that made Dan Brownâs The Da Vinci Code an international hit, and gives it an injection of steroids ⦠[Mariani] is a master of edge-of-the-seat suspense. A genuinely gripping thriller that holds the attention of its readers from the first page to the lastâ
Shots Magazine
âYou know you are rooting for the guy when he does something so cool you do a mental fist punch in the air and have to bite the inside of your mouth not to shout out âYES!â in case you get arrested on the train. Awesome thrilling stuffâ
My Favourite Books
âIf you like Dan Brown you will like all of Scott Marianiâs work â but you will like it better. This guy knows exactly how to bait his hook, cast his line and reel you in, nice and slow. The heart-stopping pace and clever, cunning, joyfully serpentine tale will have you frantic to reach the end, but reluctant to finish such a blindingly good readâ
The Bookbag
â[The Cassandra Sanction] is a wonderful action-loaded thriller with a witty and lovely lead in Ben Hope ⦠I am well and truly hooked!â
Northern Crime Reviews
âMariani is tipped for the topâ
The Bookseller
âAuthentic settings, non-stop action, backstabbing villains and rough justice â this book delivers. Itâs a romp of a read, each page like a tasty treat. Enjoy!â
Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author
âI love the adrenalin rush that you get when reading a Ben Hope story ⦠The Martyrâs Curse is an action-packed read, relentless in its pace. Scott Mariani goes from strength to strength!â
Book Addict Shaun
âScott Mariani seems to be like a fine red wine that gets better with maturity!â
Bestselling Crime Thrillers.com
âMarianiâs novels have consistently delivered on fast-paced action and The Armada Legacy is no different. Short chapters and never-ending twists mean that you canât put the book down, and the high stakes of the plot make it as brilliant to read as all the previous novels in the seriesâ
Female First
âScott Mariani is an awesome writerâ
Chris Kuzneski, bestselling author of The Hunters
