Review: As sophisticated as a 1950 comic book

This is a book that requires you to believe that a human can be slowly turned into the equivalent of a nuclear bomb by injecting something into their arm, and that an antidode injected the same way would stop that process.  It requires you to believe that there is some enemy out there all poised to launch an all out nuclear war against us the moment our computers are inoperative.  OK, I can believe that, with a lot of effort, and once I do that this book is an action packed adventure, hard to put down before the ending.  But, then I have too little room left in my belief box to accept that a man can jump out of a burning helicopter and survive, that a tiny woman can be so skilled at fighting that she can overpower any mortal man.I did finish the book, and was entertained, so maybe I'm still basically a comic book reader?
