Customer Reviews

Classic Griffin!

I was relieved to see that Griffin is still putting pen to paper. This novel is hard hitting and delivers excellent character development, super plot and continuation of the series. I rate it at 5 stars.

Classic Griffin novel

I have to agree wholeheartedly with "bonanza bucko". This is a classic Griffin novel. If junior had any hand in it, it was so little that it was unnoticed by me. Seems that all he had to do with it was to put his name on the book as co-author in hopes that some of his writings will get read by association with his dad. Hopefully Mr. Griffin is in good health and will continue to write these great novels for many more years. I would love to see a new one in the Corp series and the presidential agent series. Mr. Griffin, if you read these reviews I hope you keep junior's hands off your writing in the future 'cause he just can't write.

Excellent addition to the Honor Bound Series

This is an excellent addition to the Honor Bound series, written in the marvelous, action-packed Griffin style. Griffin packs in a wonderful combination of WWII, Argentine and American history. Cletus Frade continuous to support both the American and Argentinian causes, and the heroic saga continues, with Juan Peron continuing to emerge as a less than desirable leader of Argentina. The bad guys and good guys battle it out in Argentina, while Eva (Evita) Duarte starts to exercise her influence on Juan Peron. Another great Griffin story with heroes and villains on almost all sides.

Bonanza Bucko

I bought this book last week and I'm almost finished reading it...a very, very good book. But THE MAIN REASON I'm writing this is my very low opinion of The Traffickers which I posted here two weeks ago. The Traffickers was obviously not written by Griffin himself...the only shadow of him in the book was the characters and the localities; it was way too wordy and disjointed....borderline boring. I thought Griffin had become a shill for his son, Butterworth, and that the good ole days were gone. I WAS WRONG! This book is among the best Griffin books. If it was partially written by Mr. Butterworth he has been paying attention in his dad's school! This is a superb book in the good old W. E. B Griffin mold....pure entertainment but very well done. If this is Butterworth's work we are in good hands. If it isn't we need to send Griffin some big vitamin pills so he stays with us forever.
