Description
The no. 1 bestseller from Australia's favourite novelist, author of the Scarecrow series and the Jack West Jr series, with new novel Mr Einstein's Secretary out now.
An incredible victory but at a terrible price...
Against all the odds, Jack West Jr found the Three Secret Cities but at a heartbreaking cost. His beloved daughter Lily, it appeared, was slaughtered by Sphinx in a cruel ancient ritual.
To the mountains and the fall!
With his rivals far ahead of him, Jack must now get to one of the five iron mountains—two of which have never been found—and perform a mysterious feat known only as 'The Fall'. Although what is this object on the moon that is connected to it?
A new player arrives
Amid all this, Jack will discover that a new player has entered the race, a general so feared by the four legendary kingdoms they had him locked away in their deepest dungeon. Only now this general has escaped and he has a horrifying plan of his own...
Praise for The Two Lost Mountains
'The Jack West Jnr books are pure escapism. An action hero worthy of Lee Child leads a team to save the world against elaborate threats that owe as much to the camp machinations of Bond supervillains as the myth-tinged conspiracy fiction of Dan Brown. Reilly churns out big, glossy page-turners with imagination and skill.' Sydney Morning Herald
'Thrilling ride...it's excitement and entertainment that is his stock in trade, and it's here in spades.' Herald Sun
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

The Sydney Morning Herald calls it "pure escapism" with an action hero worthy of Lee Child, while the Herald Sun hails it as a "thrilling ride" packed with excitement and entertainment. Previous entries in the series have received acclaim from sources like the Washington Post and Publishers Weekly for their imaginative, rollercoaster-style storytelling.
