Relic Hunters: Betrayal of the Gods (Relic Hunters Series) by Martin Ferguson – Review by Heather Bass

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have read a few books from this author and he still blows my mind. This is the fourth book in the very addictive series the Relic Hunters. You do need to read these books in order or you might get lost. I love a good young adult adventure but this book exceeded my expectations. I started this book right away and I read it in only one sitting. I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Adam and Matt are going to go on their first hunt on their own. They are used to having help and more equipment but this mission is more personal. Their journey is in the middle of Greek mythology. They are going to have a lot of skill and tricks up their sleeves. Adam and Matt are so close at getting what they have been searching for but there are things that will try to stop them. Will the brothers get what they want or will they be stoped?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Relic Hunters is book 5 of this short series and this book differently could be read as a standalone. This series is most definitely aimed for the young adult youth crowd, but it was very enjoyable to read still. The story jumps each chapter from present to past, but it was easy enough to follow along. Two brothers Adm and Hunter are challenged to a race of their lives and have to figure out how to survive through the Greek legends. But as the race continues, they are declared as outlaws and are being chased down but not just anyone but also ones they thought were allies. I love the aspect of adding in Greek mythology throughout the book which is always stuff I love about reading and what strikes my interest. This book was very exciting to read, and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen to the brothers and if they were able to get out or finish with this adventurous race.

Admittedly I was drawn to the Relic Hunters series originally because of its whimsical and interesting cover art. I truly had never seen anything like it before, and as soon as I read the back cover of the first book, Eagle Of the Empire, I knew I had to read it. I was immediately transported into Adam and Matt’s world with no way out. Before I knew it I had finished the first five books of this legendary adventure.
I have never read a series as captivating as this one, where each amazing book is so much better than the last. The inclusion of history and myths makes Adam and the gang’s story feel almost nostalgic. I adore Adam and really enjoyed getting to deeply know his character. Ferguson is very skilled at developing his characters and their relationships so naturally. The flow between past and present was smooth, I also loved the structure of these books and the use of different perspectives other than Adam. It also helped the flow of the story and helped me see it as a whole.
I really enjoyed Ferguson’s tone with The Relic Hunters series and his inclusion of humor with the action. Each book is my favorite book until I read the next one in this entrancing and intriguing series. Every book had me more on the edge of my seat than the last, audibly gasping at the pages. This Young Adult Series will have anyone at any age coming back for more! I for one can not wait to sink my teeth into the Sixth installment of this series Kingdom Of The Oceans!

Betrayal of the Gods (Relic Hunters Book 5)Betrayal of the Gods by Martin Ferguson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Hunter brothers are back and this time they are on their own, the team that they have been with is torn apart as the brothers find out some information which they have been seeking all their lives, and more on top of that. The betrayal is something they didn’t expect and ends up with them walking out and beginning a hunt of their own.

This means that for the first time, the Hunter brothers are lacking in equipment, supplies, information or support, but they do have their smarts, skills and tricks to be able to get the help they need. The journey starts out at home where they are shown something both close to their hearts and miles away at the same time, however, it just solidifies their determination to find out the answers they long for.

As usual, nothing is simple and straightforward, however, they do find someone else who can give them their first waypoint and so the chase begins. They realise that although they know a lot about mythology, this chase is going to lead them on an epic journey of discovery where myth and reality collide and with both their friends and enemies hot on their trail, will the two brothers be able to uncover all the information they need, or will this journey be their last one?

This is a cross country race against time as the hunters become the hunted in this dangerous and life altering journey in the footsteps of history.

Betrayal of the Gods is the fifth book in the Relic Hunters series by Martin Ferguson. It is a superb young adult adventure- with plenty of action, historical details, Greek mythology, drama, mystery, danger, investigation, intrigue, tension, dynamic characters, a complex plot, and a race against time.
I was excited to see this book pop up on my recommended books as I have really enjoyed the rest of the series- so diving into this story was a no-brainer. As I have mentioned many times before, and will probably do again- this series would make a really great movie, TV series, or adventure/RPG game. Mr. Ferguson attention to detail is apparent in his cleverly crafted tales- his world building/storytelling is rich and vividly detailed- making for quite an engrossing read.
This action-packed adventure kept me glued to the pages from beginning to end as Adam and Matt are thrust into an epic adventure that will test them like never before. In a race against time, these two are about to face their biggest challenge. What happens makes for a great read.
I really recommend this series to anyone who loves YA, adventure, and history. And even though you could read this as a standalone, I highly recommend reading the previous books before starting on this one- as this is definitely a series you won’t want to miss a moment.
Bring on Book #6!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Martin Ferguson!
