“This is the first Matt Reilly book I have ever read and it was one of the best works of fiction I have read. If you like James Rollins, Vince Flynn, and Michael Crichton, then this book is for you. It had a lot of action in a foreign place where your imagination takes you. Some parts were predictable while other parts were not. Some of the story was a bit outlandish and unrealistic while others parts were quite real. The battle scenes were sometimes a bit convoluted but still remained very suspenseful. The characters were well developed, you either loved them or hated them, particularly the main character, Scarecrow. Although Scarecrow was a mean fighting machine, he was a man who had feelings rather than some cold mean killer. The ending was superb, and without giving away details, I envision that we will indeed have the technology to achieve what occurs with the aircraft at the end of the story.
I highly recommend this book to adventure enthusiasts, covert military ops, and thriller fans. I look forward to reading more Matt Reilly novels.”
