“This book was awful. The plot was a mismash of b spy movies and the characters were poorly developed. For example, April, the secretary, goes from being a totally trivial character to a smart and sexy primary character in two paragraphs of trite back story at the end of a chapter. I was going to buy two of Ben Bova's books from the store, but I decided to read one first to see if I liked it. I rarely read books I don't care for, but in this case I'm glad I only bought one of his books. I honestly don't know what to do with the book now.”
