Indiana Jones and the Seven Veils is the third of twelve Indiana Jones novels published in the 1990s. This series, officially licensed by Lucasfilm, is inspired by the Indiana Jones character who first appeared in 1981 with the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark. Rob MacGregor authored the first six books including The Seven Veils. Martin Caidin wrote the seventh and eighth books, and Max McCoy wrote the last four.
The events of this book take place in 1925 and 1926. The book opens with an excerpt from the journal of Colonel Percy Fawcett who explored the Brazilian jungles in an attempt to find a mysterious lost city named Z. This lost city was believed to be established by European Celts who traveled to the Americas long before Columbus. Fawcett's journal finds its way to Indy via Marcus Brody. Prodded by Brody, Indy (along with Deirdre Campbell, who first appeared in The Dance of the Giants) decides to go look for Fawcett who has not been heard from in some time. Of course, not everyone wants Fawcett to be found--nor Indy to come back alive.
I did like this book as it was a good combination of fact and fiction. I learned about Rio de Janeiro, Sugarloaf, Carnival, and Colonel Percy Fawcett. The characters of Indy and Deirdre have been given time to develop. Though the third book in the series, this book can be enjoyed by itself. Of the books I have read so far, I thought this was one of the better volumes in the series.
