In The Warrior Ty Patterson deftly drew me in from the opening salvo.Zeb Carter is a mercenary who goes up against a brutal killer named Carsten Holt. Determined to hunt down Holt for the man's brutality, Carter soon finds himself embroiled in conflict with all manner of government agencies as well as some very high-powered people.Ty Patterson skillfully weaves a clever thriller with an ex-soldier as a likeable male lead. Yes, I liked Zeb Carter. He takes care of business while making sure his family is safe. No matter where he is in the world, whether it's battling corruption, taking on politicians, or dealing with bloody action scenes in the Congo, Patterson delivers more than a snapshot of Carter. With well-defined scenes and characters, a crisp plot, along with plenty of action, there is a lot going on in this book. It all pops. Maybe that's why it flew by for me.If you're a fan of military thrillers in the same vein as Vince Flynn or James Huston, you'll absolutely love Ty Patterson's Zeb Carter as, "The Warrior."
