Commentary Supposing Books The Gilded Seal (Tom Kirk #3)

The Gilded Seal is an thriller/mystery book on a former art thief named Tom Kirk and his comrades trying to find the truth of you’ve guessed it, the Mona Lisa. *groans* I’m not the kind of person that enjoys a crackling paced novel that takes the space of just a few days. I found that there was really little to no character development, nothing really changed and much of it in this book was incredibly predictable. Nothing was shocking or surprising.

There’s a bad guy who kills people and wants money, a good guy who wants to stop the bad guy but people thinks he is also a bad guy. Bad guy kills someone, bad guy kills someone else, good guy tries to stop the bad guy, and repeat. Someone’s who is close to the good guy betrays him but we already know so it’s not even a surprise anymore. There’s nothing wrong with this book and thrillers, but it doesn’t suit my taste of more slow and beautiful writing. I’ll stick to my fantasy and historical fiction, thanks. 5/10

This is the 3rd book by James Twining about Tom Kirk, an art thief who is now a good guy helping to thwart the theft of the Mona Lisa. What secrets hide behind the most famous smile in the world? A master forger is killed, then a prominent attorney dies and drags FBI agent Jennifer Browne into the mix. Secrets go back to the time of Napoleon who was a power-mad emperor. Read this entertaining book for a very enlightening story about the Mona Lisa portrait.

Better than the double eagle but still twaddle.

The characters were interesting, and the constant battle between the art thieves to con one another reminded me of the ocean 11 movies. The plot was great, and the balance between character development, action, planning the heist, etc. was just right. I plan on reading more books by this author.

An awesome book!The only regret I have is reading this before reading the previous books in the Tom Kirk storyline. What I loved most is the story - it's exciting, it's fast paced and it always leaves you guessing. I just couldn't stop reading.

Too many characters to keep track of and way too complicated. About half way through it became more interesting and easier to follow what was going on. Twining goes very much into detail about art etc., that has to be a big interest of his personally. Anyway no more of Tom Kirk's stories.

Having read James Twining's previous two books, The Double Eagle and The Black Sun, I expected a little more from this offering. The historical mystery seems overshadowed by action sequences that are a cross between Jason Bourne, Mission Impossible and Wile E Coyote. He also introduces several shadowy underworld figures that are almost unbelievable and are certainly unrealistic.If judging this book as a screenplay for an action movie, I would give it 3 stars. As an Dan Brown-esque historical,
