Nathan McBride
review 1: Only 5 stars rate is suited for this wonderful series of Nathan McBride. Thrill-Excited-Fast Pace and Breath Stopping !The second book has not much Nathan and Harvey's action as book one, most go to information gathering works but still great. There were heart wrenching incidents. One of them made me wanted to cry and had to stop reading one day after finished the chapter. So sad, but beautiful incident.As book 1, the story linked to the big picture of almost total law enforcement agencies in US, so the scale is big and we can see the effects in many aspects, which I feel like it's one of characteristics of this series and I love it.However, I have a little selfish confession.I didn't expect many characters from book 1 to still remain as nearly main-characters in the seque... morel.I thought I'd get a brand new mission with some old senses.I know it just my ridiculous and selfish opinion, but I don't think we need a fixed-romance relationship for the hero in this kind of novel. We have romance novel for that. May be that's why I've been being stuck with Sherlock, Jack Reacher, and Dr.David Hunter series.I always feel that when there is love and a fixed-woman involved in this kind of story it will cause a plenty of weak-holes for the hero. Concern, nervous, abandon some good plan, and all the weaken points on parade.and...that'll lead to a boring story....completely predictable (-_-;).and oh...our hero is falling in love...(bitter laugh)I do really happy for Grangeland's return, I like her a lot and she's cool.I'd like Henning to have more important role too...and I also would love Holly to return... but not at this position.Nathan and her story is too plain and very easy to predict what's going to be, and that part quite bored me.Well, it just my feeling.
review 2: Second in the series, the books starts to unravel the past on the main character, Nathan McBride. McBride is a moral man. I can’t point to any one line, but the reader seems to “feel” that he is spiritual – yet he kicks butt like the ex-marine /sniper/CIA operative that he is.It's not an intricate plot but rather straight forward. It's certainly entertaining (+ I always like a heroe who own his own helicopters). less
