Review: Packed with action from End to End!
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 03 14, 2012
Let me tell you, this book is pretty long.  On my Kindle it has over 11,400 locations.  Somehow Shane Brown manages to pack in plenty of action, excitement, and thrills from one end to the other.  I am sure Shane will be compared to Matt Reilly a lot and after reading FAST I can see why.  Keep in mind this is an early effort by Shane Brown, but I am hooked now and will be looking forward to more thrillers from this author.For an action junkie like me (my ALL TIME FAVORITE MOVIE isDie Hard), this book delivers.  I had to chuckle sometimes because it seemed like the Marines in this story were going from the frying pan into the fire time and time again. It was difficult to find a place to pause and catch my breath. This book has it all: a secret government lab, Marines, terrorists, monsters, and a secret to kill for.  The lab is isolated, no one can get in or out and the clock is ticking.I am looking forward to a FAST II for sure!I would like to point out to readers that this book is available for lending via the Prime Lending program (if you have Amazon Prime you can borrow this book for as long as you like for free.  Once you return it you can borrow another).Just now I discovered Shane has another book available for Kindles:PLAZA.  Another action thriller in the jungle, like Indiana Jones meets Die Hard.  This book is also available for Prime Lending.  I already have a book out for March, but I just found my April Prime Lending book.  Hurry up April!Update on 12 April, 2012.  I bumped up my review from 4 to 5 stars.  What was I thinking?  I loved FAST so much that I indeed got PLAZA and I am zipping thru it right now.  I rarely read two books by the same author within such a short span (so many books, so many authors, not enough time.....etc...).  I will be posting a good review on PLAZA within the next couple of days.So far as I am concerned, Shane Brown is 2 for 2 in the action-thriller department.  And what a great deal on the cost of his books: Only $2.99.
