Once again Steve Berry delivers a great "what is real and what is fiction" thriller. This one kept me on the edge of my seat for 3 days. I couldn't wait to finish it. If you didn't know or just didn't want to know about the Romanov's this book will definitely make you want to look deeper into the whole Czar history. The Romanov Prophecy centers on the relationship between the Romanovs and Rasputin's "predictions" of the future. Throw that in with a secret Russian group of "business men", a secret society of protectors, and a lawyer from South Carolina and you have one great thrill ride that will leave you wanting more. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves thrillers and also who love history.
Let me just say that I know nothing about Russia (except what I wrote in a report for 4th grade), yet this book was wonderful. Even with all the history, the backstory, the politics, Steve Berry pulls off a wonderful thriller. I have become very interested in the history of the Romanovs and Russia since finishing this book a few weeks ago. I have become a permanent fan of Steve Berry; I have read his 2 of his other works (3rd Secret, Templar Legacy) and can't wait to read The Amber Room. If you like historical thrillers, even if you know nothing about Russia and the Romanovs, READ THIS BOOK!
It true thriller so very well written had me on the edge of my seat the entire time I almost binge read the whole book. This is definitely a must read a mixture of fiction and nonfiction creating an incredible story just reading the prologue we'll have you so interested that you have to go to chapter one. And then you have to find out what happens from the events of chapter one so you have to go to chapter 2 right away and finally there I was able to take a breath.

I am a great Steve Berry fan...I prefer his work to Dan Brown's. Steve Berry mixes historical fact with fiction plus adding mystery with action adventure! I have all of his books but his present one. His writing never disappoints!
I enjoyed how much research is evident in the novel.
