Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 12 24, 2013
When I first began this book, I was pretty convinced I wasn't going to like the book that much. There were portions that just did not seem to interest me. I was somewhat bored, and so I figured I would not give this book any kind of fantastic rating.This is why it is so important to not give up within the first portion of a book. About one third of the way into the book, I discovered that I was actually interested in the story. Not only that, I was somewhat fascinated by this take on the story--I never considered Germany being any kind of threat in the world after WWII. This was an intriguing and somewhat scary prospect. And who doesn't like a good spy? With a hint of romance--that is unresolved--to it.I am happy to report that there are no sex scenes, and the profanity is limited, even though I feel it is unnecessary. There are also no graphic details or descriptive senseless violence--always nice to report. There were portions of the book where I admit that I lost interest, but much of the book truly did keep moving at a pretty good pace. I struggled in the beginning to keep the various characters straight. I would have loved a "character list" or something because often in these kinds of books, I get confused with all the various characters. Again, just my opinion.Do you want to read a fast-paced spy/intrigue/espionage book? This may very well be for you. I nvite you to check it out!I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
