About this listen

 'Long is the way and hard, that out of Hell leads up to light.' – John Milton, Paradise Lost Pompeii, present day: Archaeologist Maria Monti is working at a new dig site. Like hundreds before her she is investigating the night that Vesuvius erupted, consuming the ancient city with choking ash, scalding steam and rivers of lava. But she has just unearthed something that shouldn’t be there, something that makes her question everything she knows about the disappearances of that fateful event. Several hundred miles away Alex Hunter’s family is holidaying in southern Italy when Mount Etna begins to shake, and ash begins to blanket the countryside. Figures are moving about in the smoke, hideous shapes, snatching people from the streets, and scans indicate they are being taken into the core of the erupting volcano. Hell is rising and Alex Hunter must gather a team of his most battle hardened HAWCs to take on an adversary from the very depths of hell. Nothing will stop him from rescuing Aimee and Joshua, not even the devil itself.©2019 Greig Beck (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing Action & Adventure Action Thrillers Fantasy Mystery, Thriller & Suspense

Critic Reviews

'Greig Beck’s latest novel, FROM HELL, is yet another explosive instalment to the Alex Hunter series. This time, Beck takes readers into the history of Pompeii, in order to stop what could very well become the next apocalypse. A thriller so extreme, it could give readers both nightmares and teary eyes. FROM HELL is the best of Beck to date, in what has to be a #1 Best-Seller!' (A. Renee Hunt, BooksBookBooks)

Re-imagining of Pompeii's destruction

This is good follow-up in the series which I have been following closely. It felt the weakest book so far. Greig's concepts and handling of extraordinary incidents are fantastic especially with his consistency of out of the box solutions.
But in this story somehow despite fantastic action set pieces the pace seemed slow for me. The story meandered around in setting up the background and somehow the brilliant start with a fresh explanation of the destruction of Pompeii was never sustained in the book.
Now whether it is me who needs a break from Grieg's books for sometime or whether it was just this story is something which I will ascertain only after starting the next book in the series. I had just come out of a fabulous time with his Mysterious Island trilogy so it could be just this book.
I have enjoyed too much of his books from these Alex Hunter capers to Matt Kearns, Centre of the Earth, Deep Seas and so many more to just let go with this one.
Overall this is still a great story and it hits all the right notes and also ends with a cliffhanger.
