Nine Lives

An absolutely riveting book. The story moved at a breakneck pace and not once did I get tired with the storyline. The story covered a number of issues including drug trafficking, terrorism and the dreadful devastation that could occur in England if terrorism succeeded.

Loved this book, read it not expecting a lot (it was a free download a long time ago) and just loved the whole premise. The tension was kept up through the whole book and there was even a big twist I didn't see at the end of the book. Also loved the very ending of the book! It was all based around a terrorist cell in London and a race against time on New Year's Eve to stop a number of atrocities. I think this is one of the most tension filled books I have read as it kept this up throughout the whole book. I will certainly be continuing the series and recommend him to others, I think it will be of particular interest to people who enjoy Daniel Silva, Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, Alex Lukeman, Lee Child, Matt Hilton...to name a few.

The characters and plot intertwined well, it keeps you guessing and dragged along London searching for what's going to happen next. The book is solid all the way through, I like the fact that Barber didn't focus solely on Archer. He leaves him to develop over time and keeps him humble within this first book. Looks to be an excellent start to a great series.
