I absolutely love Vince Flynn and the Mitch Rapp series. Similar to Lee Child - you'll either really love his books or you wont - there isnt an in between. While this book doesnt center on Mitch Rapp it is very similar and in that “time line”. Great, easy reads normally centered on counter-terror operative Mitch Rapp. Part Jack Bauer (24) and part James Bond, Mitch goes places and does things that would make Speaker Pelosi cry. He is one of the good guys and the books keep you on the edge until the very end.
Enjoyable spin on one of history's favorite and intriguing characters. It's a snowy weekend book that you'll enjoy as you read, but could have been much more.
Stackpole is hit or miss with me. This book was a home run. I enjoyed it from start to finish and am surprised he hasn't fleshed this universe out with more books. Great character development and cool fantasy universe.
Having read this previously as younger man it was one of my favorites. The joy of audiobooks is that they add so much to the book. I think as a fast reader I missed many of the nuances and the pace of an audiobook really provides a fuller experience. That being said Robin Hobb's Farseer books remain fantastic and a must read for anyone who enjoys the genre.
This book was awesome. I stumbled on this through Mobireader and I was really impressed by the novel especially for one of the “independents”. It reminded me of a cross between Ender's Game, Star Wars, Star Trek and even Firefly (the TV show). All of the good stuff. The writing is well done, the characters well developed, and the story is very good. This is sci-fi space opera in fine form. The follow on series is excellent as well. highly recommend this to anyone for a light, tasty sci-fi read.
One of the best series of books I have read. I love the setting, but the WH40K books are hit or miss. If there ever was a universe that needs Cain's humor it's this one. Enjoyable by even those not a fan of the setting.
