One of The Best Destroyers Written Since "The Masters Trials

If you like the destroyer books then you will love this book. One of the greatest Warren Murphy has ever writen.

You can tell the author loves this series...

This is a book only a true fan of the series could write. It has EVERYTHING that has made the series so great over the decades. Jim is really wrapping things up before he leaves the series. Remo has ascended to #1 honcho of the house. Chiun has a new lease on life thanks to the Great Wang (sounds like soft core porn!) Shiva and Remo come to terms (pretty much.)There's even more. The Dutchman. A mad russian monk. Chiun and the Queen of England?!? A look inside the people of Sinanju. Ingrates.Buy the book. Buy several copies.

I'll Miss You When You're Gone Jim

First, I would have given this book 5 stars if the final confrontation with the Dutchman had lasted longer. I think this was the shortest battle Purcell ever had.James Mullaney had been laying the groundwork for this story quite some time and did an excellent job of bringing it together. It's interesting to look back over the first 129 novels and see how far both the storylines and characters have developed. Finally, anyone who has ever read the series needs to pick up this book. It definitely marks the beginning of a new era. I can only hope that the next author to pick up this series cares about the characters enough to bring them to life as vividly as Jim has done.
