Okay I thought about this and think I have to go 5 stars here. I say that because as I finished this one the first thing I did was check to see if the "next" was out.

It's not by the way.

Here we stay with the character who finally got established and built an interesting story of a terrorist threat that could happen. The final climax stretches a little to include our protagonists but not too much for it to stay an excellent book.

We don't get a "nothing but action book here by the way. Not that this would necessarily have been a problem. I've read many "break out of the gate at a run and never slow down" books and they can be good. Here we take our time. We open with an action sequence and then fade into a sort of "spy thriller" type story that again leads into a fast moving climactic close.

It also ends in a "sort of" cliffhanger...you'll see what I mean.

If you like Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, Tom Clancy, Mark Greany etc. this may be what you're looking for. An involving and exciting read, recommended. Enjoy.
