I first started reading the Tales of MI7 series when one of them became available via Reading Deals Review Club. I was hooked and became a member of the fan club. Through this, I was made aware of Libya Story becoming a nominee in the Amazon Kindle Scout program. Unfortunately, it didn't win. Mr. Ward was kind enough to proffer a chance for any willing fan to obtain an Advanced Reader's Copy (ARC). I took his offer, read the book, and am happy to share my thoughts on it.

I consider this book, which was published via Amazon on 12 January 2017, to be a mixture of International Intrigue and Family Drama genres.
​
Brief overview of Libya Story:  John Mordred knew leaving MI7 would be problematic yet he made the decision that family was worth the risks.  His younger sister was abducted yet no one else in his family knew this. John planned for all known circumstances but will that be enough to keep him and his sister alive?

My thoughts: Having read other books in the series, I am familiar with the main character, John Mordred. G is what some might call eccentric while others would deem him peculiar. I think he is an intelligent, caring person who has to decide what is the right thing to do at any given moment. Considering the twists and turns this adventure takes him, that isn't easy. I also love that John will occasionally make a comparison between himself and James Bond, mostly in a humorous way. 

Is that his creator's sense of humor showing through, maybe a little bit. If you'd like to get to know a little more about J. J.
