Fab - as always - Rated
I didn't start reading Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp series from the beginning so after reading Act of Treason and while waiting for a new one I decided to start (almost) from the beginning of the series by picking up Transfer of Power. Although this book is one of the earliest in the Mitch Rapp series it's no less a winner than any of the newer ones. You can see from the beginning that the series is going to be one of those that grabs you and never lets go and that's exactly what Transfer of Power does.
Although none of the newer books need you to have read the earlier installments I found it nice to know how Mitch and Anna first met and it put a few details from the later books into perspective. Unlike many books however (Patricia Cornwell's Scarpetta series comes to mind) you don't need to read the earliest in the Mitch Rapp series to be able to know what's going on later on. It's nice to find a series you can pick up anytime and know you'll be able to follow.
Transfer of Power has everything you'd expect from Vince Flynn and Mitch Rapp - there's action and suspense the whole way through and I defy anyone to pick this book up and be able to put it down before you've finished it.
Want shocks? Surprises? Mystery? Suspense? Intrigue? - Then don't read this book! - Rated
This book is quite simply lacking in all the characteristics that make a good thriller. The characters are unengaging, the plot is unrealistic and rather dull, the story has no real 'wow' factor and the ending is so very very anticlimactic. The whole book falls short of a truly captivating thriller, with so little suspense and indeed thrills that I frequently found myself nodding off whilst reading. No good at all.
Couldn't put it down - Rated
Fast, exciting, and any other adjective you want to add! This is one of those books you dont want to end. Rooted enough in reality to make it scary but also fictional enough to make it exciting... a difficult accomplishment to pull off. Fantastic novel... cant wait to read more of Mitch Rapp's adventures :o)
Move over Jack Ryan - Rated
Thanks to another reviewer on Amazon of a different book, I became aware of this author and am heartily glad to have done so! Now that Jack Ryan has become the President and can no longer save the democratic (with a small 'd') world, there's a vacuum to be filled and who better than Mitchell Rapp? Vince Flynn takes over where Clancy left off and this book, the first to feature our hero, was written before the downfall of Saddam Hussein but it captures the fanaticism of the terrorist and the weakness of the political system. Whether the US military is this good is debatable but, no matter, the story races along and the 550 pages seem half that as the reader joins the escapades of Mich and Milt (not a TV show!) together with a very much restrained love interest in Anna Rielly. I have the other books in the series and I can't wait. The missing star is for one or two repeat lines which are delivered as if only for the first time - a very small niggle in an otherwise excellent read.
Buy it, Read it Immediately - Rated
I bought this book some time ago and it has been sitting in a bookcase ever since. What a mistake this turned out to be as this is one of the best books I have read in a long time. In the Genre of Political/ Terrorist thriller it is up there with the best. The plot moves briskly and there is enough action that you want to keep reading. Mitch Rapp is a believable character, and you find yourself wanting him to succeed. I would advise anyone to read this book. You will not be disappointed.
