Emerald Buddha is a great continuation of Drake Ramsey's adventures. Not only are Allie and Spencer back, there are two new quirky characters that had me laughing non-stop. My favorite was Uncle Pete. He was just the right amount of wrong.I've read and enjoyed all of Russell Blake's books. Each series has its own feel, so I know what to expect when I buy the next one. With Drake Ramsey, I know I'm gonna have fun.

Emerald Buddha (Audible Audio Edition) Russell Blake Ray Porter Audible Studios Books Reviews
This was a pretty good book, but not as good as the first one. The first half of he book was rather slow, setting up the back stories. Once they got into the jungle the excitement really ramped up. Seemed like a lot of loose ends at the end, but I guess that is motivation to buy book 3.
I am a great fan of Mr. Blake and have read most all of his books. The author has a neat way of throwing a few curves in here and there, the nature of which I don't see anyone else doing. I enjoyed Ramsey's Gold, but thought this one just didn't gell. In fact, it's probably the weakest of his books. It's ok, but not at all great. Everyone has an off day now and again, perhaps this is his off book...
This is my first Drake Ramsey book. It was very entertaining light reading. The characters were well developed and there was a lot of action. There were a lot of surprises along the way that my interest up. The CIA is the instigator of Ramsey's involvement and that should give you some idea of how it all goes. Authors like to present the US government agencies as callous groups with no concern regarding collateral damage as long as the mission is accomplished. I would recommend this book.
"Look at the seal on the handle. Clay and rope. It's never been broken." "Pretty elaborate. Why wall it off like this?" "I'd guess to avoid detection." An example of the awesome power of deductive reasoning demonstrated throughout this book. One good thing, the two heroes don't start rolling their eyes until the last part of the book. Everyone falling and hurting themselves but remarkably resilient. Perhaps a book for young adults as drugs are predominate in the story.
This is the second book in the series and it can be read as a standalone book, though some things will mean more to you if you have read the first book. Once again the three main characters are searching for a lost treasure, this time near Thailand and brought to their attention by the CIA. The CIA tells them about the treasure to lure them there to also look for a crashed plane and possible survivors. Searching for the plane and the lost treasure they face the perils of the jungle, drug gangs, the Chinese military and many other surprises. All in all a good read for this genre, just not quite as good as the first book.
A great follow up to Ramsey's Gold. The plot is fast paced with twists and turns, the action is fast and furious, writing is very descriptive, the characters are likeable and well developed and a nice touch of humor thrown in as well. The new characters are colorful and add a lot to the story. I hope to see more of Joe in future books, as he added a nice balance to Ramsey, Allie and Spencer. Looking forward to the next one in this series.
The second book in the Drake Ramsey series finds Drake, Allie, and Spencer once again searching for hidden treasure, this time in the Golden Triangle of Southeast Asia. An ancient Khymer hoard of gold, jewels, and a magnificent jade statue, lost for centuries, is their goal. But they also are drafted by the CIA to hunt for a downed plane whose passenger was a senator's daughter and her boyfriend, a Chinese hacker who had penetrated the DOD computer system. The Chinese are also looking for them, wanting the information for themselves. Throw in the myriad drug runners, hostile foreign armies, and an expatriate American living in the jungle with a tribe of farmers, and you have another exciting page-turner from Russel Blake. Highly recommended!
Emerald Buddha is a great continuation of Drake Ramsey's adventures. Not only are Allie and Spencer back, there are two new quirky characters that had me laughing non-stop. My favorite was Uncle Pete. He was just the right amount of wrong.
I've read and enjoyed all of Russell Blake's books. Each series has its own feel, so I know what to expect when I buy the next one. With Drake Ramsey, I know I'm gonna have fun.
