Customer Reviews

A great Action/Mystery book

I took this book with me on a plane and couldn't put it down. The only drawback was that I had nothing to read on the way back. I thought I would be taking breaks in between but I just had to keep reading. Great realistic action and mystery. Overall just great descriptive writing. I'll be getting more books from Chris Ryan!

Nice book,but not great

I can't totally disagree with the other reviewer, this book is certainly not a pageturner and there are some aspects in this book i don't like, but it aint that bad.The story is not so good, but Ryan knows how to keep the tension high.this book is certainly NOT one of the best books of mr.Ryan but worth a read.
