A book review by Jim “Gymbeaux” Brown, October 16,
2022
This is
the fifth book in succession that I have read where the author uses current and
past events that actually have happened and combined them with a tale of
fiction. The result is that the lines
between fact and fiction become very blurred to where the reader has a dilemma
as to making the determination between the facts and the fiction. This is a great book. How great?
I read it in one sitting which I rarely ever do. I enjoy the mix of fact and fiction because
it is very easy to relate to.
The story
line and character development are great.
As I read the book, I could actually envision some of the characters serving
within the government agents all over the world and more importantly getting
involved in the clandestine activities described in the book. They were all believable whether they really
happened or they happened in the author’s mind.
The author
wrote this book in 2018 and practically described the time and date that Russia
would invade Ukraine. In my opinion, he
accurately describes the relationships between the current nations involved in
the Russia/Ukraine war and that makes the fiction side of the book that much
more believable.
Who
should read the book? I think anyone who reads it will be glad they
did. Therefore, I would encourage
everyone to read it.
Would I read it again? I doubt that I would because there is nothing
that would require additional reviews.
Would I give it as a gift? It
would make for a great gift to anyone who reads books, so Yes, I would give it
as a gift.
