Kurzbeschreibung

For two thousand years the Triarii have protected us, influencing history from the crusades to the discovery of America. Descendent from the Roman Empire, they pervade every level of society, and are now in a race with our own government to retrieve an ancient artifact thought to have been lost forever.

Caught in the middle is archaeology professor James Acton, relentlessly hunted by the elite Delta Force, under orders to stop at nothing to possess what he has found, and the Triarii, equally determined to prevent the discovery from falling into the wrong hands.

With his students and friends dying around him, Acton flees to find the one person who might be able to help him, but little does he know he may actually be racing directly into the hands of an organization he knows nothing about...

The Protocol is a complete novel at 80,000 words or 310 trade paperback pages.

Other James Acton Thrillers Available:

Über den Autor

J. Robert Kennedy wrote his first story when he was five. Everyone in it died. Things didn't get much better from there. After horrifying his teachers in creative writing classes he took an extended hiatus, returning to writing on a whim, haunted by the image of a woman standing in tall grass, the blades streaming through her fingers. The result was a short story, written in a single evening, Does It Matter? And then he let it sit. A couple of years later he let several friends read it and they encouraged him to try and get it published. He submitted it to The Sink and it was immediately accepted. Encouraged, he wrote a second story, Loving the Ingredients, and it too was accepted, along with a reprint of Does It Matter? by The Writers Post Journal. With several publishing credits under his belt, he was ready for something bigger. A phone conversation with a best friend led to Robert writing his first novel, The Protocol. Lachesis Publishing, the first publisher he sent it to, agreed to publish it and cloud nine got a little more crowded. His next effort, Depraved Difference, was accepted for publication by a diferent publisher, however he turned down the offer, and decided to publish it independently on the Kindle, allowing him to offer his books at the prices he felt readers wanted to pay for eBooks. Robert was born in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, and grew up an Air Force brat, living in Halifax and Greenwood, Nova Scotia, Goose Bay, Labrador, Lahr and Baden, Germany, and finally Winnipeg and Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. He escaped his parent's clutches to attend university in Waterloo and settled in Ottawa, Ontario. Robert has a wife and daughter, and is hard at work on his next novel.

James Acton: A little bit of Jack Bauer & Indiana Jones! 28. September 2011
Von David Dalton - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
As other reviewers have said, this is an exciting book that delivers plenty of action. For the intro price of $0.99 I thought it was a very good read. I do plan on reading the 2nd James Acton book soon as well. Not as in-depth as a David Morrell or a Robert Ludlum thriller, but the story was exciting and I ended up reading just this book instead of my usual habit of reading 2 to 3 books at a time. Sometimes it seemed as if the professor (Acton) too easily got away from the Seal Team that was chasing him. Either Acton is really good, or they were some poorly trained Seals. A little more background on why James Acton (a professor) was so tough and tradecraft wise would have been nice. But, as I said, this book lived up to what I expected it be, I was not disappointed, and I do plan to read his next book featuring Professor James Acton.

Fast and furious 27. August 2011
Von FictionFan - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
If you want fast and furious, if you can cope with a high body count, most of all if you like to be hugely entertained, then you can't do much better than J Robert Kennedy.

Having read and loved Depraved Difference, I started this, his earlier novel, with high hopes and I certainly wasn't disappointed. Take an archaeologist or two, a conspiracy, a secret society, the US military, the British police - mix in some car chases, a lot of gore and a little romance and you have the recipe for a cracking thriller that gallops along at breakneck speed.

This book has a huge cast and a fairly complicated plot but Kennedy manages to keep all the balls in the air till the very end and then catches them neatly and skilfully. Sure, you might have to suspend your disbelief from time to time, but that's no hardship - with likeable protagonists and some humour to lighten the tone, this is a great, fun read. Highly recommended.

Hair-raising action that knocked my socks off!!! 25. Januar 2012
Von Cynseer Booklover - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I stumbled across The Protocol by author J. Robert Kennedy and promptly bought it and seven hours later (stops for dinner and other necessities) I finished this absolutely fascinating book. From the beginning I was caught up in the action, the mystery and the conspiracy involving both good and evil. To say I loved this book is mild...that I would love to see a movie on it would be thrilling...and that I am very much going to buy the next James Acton adventure, Brass Monkey, asap!!!! Highly and eagerly recommended to all who love political and religious conspiracy/intrigue with action that is beautifully described in such a way that you almost feel you are there and experiencing each moment of terror! Kudos to this fabulous author!
