Excellent action thriller

Andy McNab has once again managed to write a book that improves on his previous offering. Like every book prior, he has managed to create an action figure who is gritty, tough, professional and ruthlessly efficient but yet is personable and likable. The reader feels just like they should be--a part of the story as the character, not someone reading a book and this makes it a page-turner that comes up once and then down when complete, except for the usual routine that us mortal people have to endure before we can once again get stuck in! It isn't perfect yet, there is still a little too much military jargon, which as an ex-Army fellow I personally don't mind--but I can understand where it might get difficult to follow for a civilian with no military knowledge. But if you've read and understood his previous offering, this only builds upon Nick Stone's pitiful existence and is completely followable and understandable. I've rated it a 5 because of the amusement factor it provided. It does what it says on the tin and is fun, addictive and a great story.
