Kill Shot
by Vince Flynn (Goodreads Author)
by Vince Flynn (Goodreads Author)
Mitch Rapp has his troubles. In the last few books Mr. Flynn has dropped back and given us Mitch's history, his beginnings in the CIA.
In the last outing we met some of the players that are here in this book. We also saw the genesis so to speak of the events here. This book while holding the mantel of action proudly around it's shoulders and being true to said mantel also manages to be somewhat of a "who done it". While it tells the story in the "The reader sees behind the curtain" mode it still sets up a nice somewhat suspenseful story while still fitting in enough "slam bang" to satisfy.
On the whole I like the Mitch Rapp books and will more than likely stay with the series (if I'm able). They are satisfying page turners with coherent and thought out plots that hold together. Mr. Flynn has done his home work and over the length of these books we've gotten to know several of the characters (including Mitch of course) well.
I'm going all the way to 5 stars on this one. I considered dropping it to 4 but in the end decided I liked it well enough to give it all 5.
Enjoy.

I'm about to get the audio for hubby. Can he start here or should he start at book 1?

Like any series if you start with later volumes you're likely to get spoilers for earlier books. Here however this book and the one before could also be a place to start as they are "prequels". #11 tells the story of Mitch's beginnings. This one picks up right after that, so you could start here and then go to #1 for present day adventures.
Thanks, Sensei! I think he's going to like this series!I also got him Spellbound - he seems to be a bit of a Larry Correia fan. :-D
