Thriller

BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |

Like a script for a straight to VHS film starring a well-past-his-prime Steven Seagal. Deliberately and stubbornly cliche, pandering to the target audience. Almost like a book for people who don't like to read books. Passages from the main character's POV are in first person present tense, which I found distracting. Maybe it's common in this urgent/thriller genre?
Not the kind of book for me at all, so take the rating with a grain of salt. (

Easy read, lots of suspense. Had a little trouble keeping track of the characters with foreign names, especially toward the end, but that may have been because I was listening to the audiobook. (

An enjoyable read, albeit a bit macho at times. 3.75/5 (
