Product Description:
There’s no rest for the weary treasure hunter, but that’s how Indiana Jones likes it. Fresh from spying for the Allies in the thick of World War II Germany, the globe-trotting archaeologist doesn’t need much persuading to join his cohort “Mac” McHale in searching for one of the most coveted of artifacts: the fabled black pearl known as the Heart of Darkness. But the partners in adventure are not alone on their foray into the mysterious jungles of Haiti. German and Japanese agents are in hot pursuit, determined to possess the ebony artifact–and its secrets–for their own sinister purposes. And shadowing them all is an infamous voodoo priest, with powers of both diabolical science and black magic at his command.
On a treacherous odyssey across the Island of the Dead, where the legend of the zombi looms large, spiders, snakes, and booby traps will prove the least of Indy’s challenges. And capturing the prize will be child’s play compared to confronting an enemy unlike any other, whose numbers are legion and nearly impossible to kill–because they’re already dead. . . .

In this novel Indiana Jones and Mac seek a cursed pearl in Haiti during WWII, dealing with both the Japanese and Germans, who are also after the pearl. It's a good story and a real page-turner, certainly in the same league as some of the other Indiana Jones novels which came out in the 1990s. There were some quirky things with the attempts at German, but you can't have everything.

Having read all the other Indiana Jones books, I was looking forward to this one. I enjoyed all but the last two Jones adventures and had high hoped for this one.
It is largely a bust.
Firstly, Steve Perry's writing style is boring. As a professional writer, I have had stories rejected because I switched points of view, and included meaningless descriptors. For some reason, Perry did not suffer the same fate. This book is sadly in need of editing!
Secondly, ... Read More

Having been a fan of the Indy novels and Steve Perry I expected this book to be amazing- and it was. For all the wrong reasons.
The story is the main problem. There ain't much of it, and what there is moves in predictable patterns. Indy and Mac walk in the jungle. The Japanese walk through teh jungle following them. The German's walk through the jungle following them (or was it the other way around... ?). A Haitian voodoo man follows all of them astrally. The McGuffin is lame and ... Read More

I was thrilled to see a new Indy novel after all these years and even more excited that it was being handled by a fairly "big-name" author. Unfortunately, while the story wasn't bad per se, it didn't really succeed as an Indiana Jones adventure. There were times when the book's pacing was too slow and things seemed almost pedestrian (even with Zombies and Nazis running around!). There was no real sense of danger or excitement -- it was like we were being told about things that were exciting, but without ... Read More

Indy vs Zombis? Count me in! Not so much though. No backstory to Indy and Mac's friendship. Too much of the German and Japanese characters background, which doesnt move the story forward or are even relevant to the events occurring. When the zombis appear there is no feeling of horror or suspense one may expect when reading a story about the living dead. Interesting concept on the zombis however, but nothing really ever "fleshed" out. Hope there is another Indiana Jones novel coming out. Im sure the folks ... Read More
