My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book by “Dalton Fury” is simple in it’s general plot, with complications. The complications are the best parts of the book. It’s the rest that is harder to get through.
The rest of the book follows various characters and what they are doing with asides of background and motivations. The writing of all this is standard with lots of military jargon. The jargon is interesting, but trivial to the story. The plot slows considerably due to the excess.
This book does get the complaint I give almost all novels written in the past 25 years- It needs editing. Some of the military details are good to include, but all that is included,including routine tasks are a bit much. This book should have been whittled into three books. Three books that would have been better than this whole one. It seems obvious to me that the “Fury” fellow brought into the publisher hundreds of pages of story and it all got cut to these two books.
I add an extra star only for a few elements of the story not usually found in espionage thrillers.
Bottom line; I do not recommend this book. 5 of 10.
