Fun, fast read!!

Everybody CALM DOWN!!! Who cares if this book was ghost written, or why and how Coonts developed the story? If you like fast, furious action, with plenty of plot twists and turns, then read it. It's almost like watching an action movie--you DON'T always know exactly what's going on every second, but that's the beauty--you eventually find out through the action sequences. RELAX!! Anyway, if you like this sort of thing--simple, yet action-filled, you will enjoy this book. Sometimes you just need comic-book stuff like this. Go for it!!

Great read

This is a complex and engaging thriller that weaves several different stories and plots together for a surprise payoff at the end. I especially liked Tommy Karr, a kind of fun-loving good ol' boy for modern times.

A READING TO MAKE LISTENERS' EARS SIZZLE

Today techno-thrillers are at the top of the heap and Coonts plus DeFelice pen them with the best. Add a triple threat voice performance by veteran actor J. Charles and you have a reading that'll make listeners' ears sizzle. Gone - just plain disappeared. A famous scientist who knows all about germ warfare, Dr. James Kegan, has simply vanished from his New York State home. However, he did leave something behind - the body of a dead man with a hole between the eyes. The dead man's gone but not forgotten as he can be traced to a terrorist cell. Enter Kegan's best bud NSA operative Charles Dean who has been assigned quite a task: ingratiate himself with Kegan's associates, translate the scientist's research into an understandable form. Further Dean must do this in no time flat as there's an old killer fever spreading, killing people one by one. What do we have? A terrorist threat and biological warfare. Enough to set anyone's pulse pounding. Give a listen and see. - Gail Cooke

Qick, light adventure

Interesting collaboration by Coonts and DeFelice, seems to take Coonts' action and blend with DeFelice techno stuff (he works with Dale Brown). I thought they tried too hard in a couple of places to be snappy and ahead of the curve with their gadgets, but the read was entertaining. I wasn't looking for any big thoughts here, just a fun ride.
