Book Reviews of Indiana Jones and the Philosopher's Stone
Book Review: Indy and the Philosopher's Stone: Everything you'd expect
Summary: 5 Stars
This was an absolutely terrific book. Max McCoy is, in my opinion, the best author so far in the Indiana Jones novel series. Here he captures the true spirit of the movies, from Indy's daredevil ride on the OUTSIDE of a 1930's airship to his climactic desert showdown with cruel Italian Facists for the possession of the fabled Philosopher's Stone. Sallah makes a welcome appearance in this book (I hope he'll show up again in some future novel), and Alecia, Indy's female companion this time around, is the best he's ever had. In either the books OR the movies (sorry, Marian and Deirdre, but...). It saddens you to know that their relationship is doomed, but at the same time you can always hope. So while you wait eagerly for Indiana Jones IV to come out in theaters, you can wisely quench your thirst for his adventures by picking up a copy of this book. Don't miss it. Hat's off to McCoy.
Summary of Indiana Jones and the Philosopher's Stone
For centuries the lust for wealth and immortality has driven men mad. Now Indiana Jones is called to London to recover an ancient alchemist?s manuscript rumored to contain the formula both for turning lead into gold and granting its owner eternal life. Certain that a missing British alchemist and an insane Renaissance scholar are involved in the theft, Indy?along with the alchemist?s beautiful sister?travels to Rome, and straight into the hands of Mussolini?s fascists.The mad scholar Sarducci has stolen the Voynich Manuscript, all right. But that?s only half the story. The manuscript is really a map, leading into the desert and the most ancient and magnificent crypt in the world, where Indiana Jones will either witness an astounding miracle of alchemy?or become the tomb?s next inhabitant.
