	Matthew Reilly : Seven Deadly Wonders : Book Review
		Reilly includes drawings to clarify the elements of the search, but most readers will be confused by the multitude and complexity of the clues.
		I liked Reilly’s nifty gizmos, including a specially outfitted 747 that enables the Nine to make their escapes, and there are a few moments of sweet sentiment between Lily and her protectors.
		Matthew Reilly was born in 1974 in Sydney, Australia.

	Review - Contest by Matthew Reilly
		Contest is Matthew Reilly’s first novel that he self-published after it was turned down by numerous Australian publishers.
		As Matthew himself says, this story laid the foundations for Ice Station and the character Scarecrow…; and as such it is a very firm foundation indeed.
		Ah, I hear you say, is this the same Matthew Reilly that did Ice Station, and yes, it is. This was his first novel and although it has been tweaked for this release, you can tell that it is one of his stories.

	Matthew Reilly (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.isi.jhu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		'''Matthew Reilly''', born July 2nd, 1974, is an Australian thriller writer.
		Reilly is well known for his style of writing, which, unlike any other before it, focuses entirely on Hollywood-style action scenes, relegating drama and character development to second priority.
		Many critics condemn this, and point out that Reilly unashamedly writes his books to read like movies; however, Reilly's fans argue that his writing style is what makes the books unique and exciting.

	Amazon.fr : Area 7: Livres en anglais: Matthew Reilly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Matthew Reilly's Area 7 shows an even more concentrated skill at keeping us turning the pages than his previous bestsellers Ice Station and Temple.
		Reilly's speciality is the steady accumulation of cliffhanging situations (as he demonstrated so readily in Temple) and he pulls off the trick with his usual aplomb in this one.
		Reilly, the pedal-to-the-metal action novelist from Australia, returns here with yet another inelegant yet oddly invigorating rip-snorter about what else world domination.

		Matthew Reilly was born in Sydney, Australia on July 2, 1974.
		Reilly followed up 'Ice Station' with his second best-seller, 'Temple', about the race to find a legendary Incan idol.
		Matthew Reilly's motto is "life's too short", and he enjoys golf, soccer and cricket.

		Reilly is a writer who in his media interviews candidly says that his books are not meant to be epic works of fiction aimed at educating the world about the meaning of life.
		Matthew Reilly's first novel, Contest- initially written and self-published in 1994- ranks as one of the best Matthew Reilly novels to date.
		If Matthew Reilly didn't have an incredible talent for creating characters that matter, his novels wouldn't have you on the edge of your seat.

		I've never read any of Matthew Reilly's other work and was drawn to this for two reasons: a) the great book cover and b) the fact that it's based around Ancient Egypt (which I have a high interest in) and the Seven Wonders of the World.
		I have loved Matthew Reilly books since Contest, Ice Ststaion etc. Yes they were far fetched, but still on the very edge of beleiveable.
		With This latest offering, Matthew has entered the realms of darn right ridiculous - Sorry but it was not even a roller coast of a ride that has in the past had us all on the edge of our seats.

	Matthew Reilly - Palimpsest (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Reilly's story has all of the latter: tautology ("pointed peak"), feeble descriptions ("fashionable Fifth Avenue"), clichés ("blasted the window to smithereens," "small and wiry and compact"), Dan Brown-style clunking explication - ("Grauss pressure cases are all but impossible to break open.
		Matthew continues to have fun both experimenting and testing his limits when it comes to word-smithing.
		Reilly justifies the fact that he can't write decent English by saying that it's not needed for his 'genre' and looking at even the positive reviews extracted by Blixa above, that's something his fans buy into as well.

		Capt. Shane Scofield hero of Reilly's first novel, Ice Station has been assigned to guard the President on his helicopter journey to the Nevada desert, where he will conduct a routine inspection of air force bases.
		Second, Reilly really is a master of the action thriller in a way that those who made Temple of Doom aren't.
		But Matthew Reilly keeps you reading despite these weaknesses because he has a couple of tricks up his sleeve.

		Reading a book by Matthew Reilly is like going to a liars convention, where the person who tells the most outlandish, unbelievable, crazy, entertaining story is the winner.
		Reilly is very up-front about writing books that attempt to pack as much action as possible between the covers, and he also describes how he became an author:
		Not only does Matthew Reilly have an exquisite knowledge on weaponry, he uses it to its full potential to give the reader an extreme sense of imagery.

	Amazon.de: Scarecrow: English Books: Matthew Reilly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Reilly knows exactly what kind of book he's writing.
		Obviously enjoying himself, he knows just what words to punch in order to get the most out of each action-packed sentence, and he supports his Clint Eastwood-like delivery of Schofield's dialogue by giving each of the numerous secondary characters their own distinct voices and accents.
		If you've read Reillys other books (as I did), you know prior to the first page that you might as well switch your brain to cruise control and enjoy the ride.

		As an avid reader of Matthew Reilly novels, I expected the best from this book, and was not disappointed.
		If you have read Reilly's previous books including the likes of Ice Station and Area 51, this is definitely a must-have, even if it is just for the milestones in certain characters' lives.
		Personally, I found that one of the most appealing things about Reilly's books is the way that it is so easy to become engrossed in the characters.

	Cybamuse Independent Book Reviews - Matthew Reilly
		As depressingly young as Matthew Reilly is, he set out to write stories with non-stop action and has more than succeeded!
		The Ice Station is an extremely well though out, well researched bit of action which to my count, let me come up for air on only three occasions.
		The only flaw in this nonstop thriller was Reilly constant use of italics to emphasise every key word or phrase that we might overlook in our hasty reading as the pace carries us along...

		In this interview, Matthew Reilly talks about the writing of SCARECROW.
		With that in mind, what I really wanted was for SCARECROW to be seen as a new kind of Matthew Reilly novel, a faster book, a book that was more densely packed with plot: a book that was a stylistic leap forward from my previous efforts.

	Jedi Council Forums - The Matthew Reilly fan thread
		I seem to remember reading part of an interview with him that he wrote the really freaky action scenes in "Ice Station" because they were unlikely to be made by Hollywood...
		As I was reading them I couldn't help thinking they were written whith the design to be made into movies...but that's just me, and I didn't think about it long enought to imagine the budget that would require and all that crap.
		I reckon he should have given Scarecrow a Mark23 Mod0, but as absolutely no one has heard of that, it wouldn't have resulted in higher sales, having a deagle does that, as people have seen enough bad guys in films use it that they could spot one literally a mile away.

	Blogcritics.org: Book Review: Seven Deadly Wonders by Matthew Reilly
		The plot centers around the search for the capstone of the Great Pyramid of Giza, the pieces of which were hidden with the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
		Back-story, especially on the wonders, is delivered at the beginning of the pertinent section, in a straightforward, lecture format.
		The book reads and is structured very much like a movie script, which I suspect Reilly has in the back of his mind.
