Larry Bond's First Team: Angels of Wrath

Larry Bond is great, but in the tradition of a growing number of authors, this is a collaboration book that leaves you wishing that it was just one author. Overall, the book is a good read, but I like Larry Bond's solo writing a little more.

This second book about the First Team takes you to the Middle East and America.It features the First Team leader Bob Ferguson a former CIA agent.He is joined by First Team member Thera Majed,a paramilitary and an expert on Middle East affairs.They are working to head off two different crises.A member of the Seven Angels is killed by a suicide bomber in Jerusalem.The Seven Angels is a radical religious group who wants to trigger a catastrophic showdown in Jerusalem.This group has roots in the United States as well as ties to the Iraqui resistance movement. This group(Seven Angels) also has ties to an arms dealer named Nisieen Khazaal.They make several attempts to capture the arms dealer.The First Team also has several runins with Middle East terrorist groups.The First Team also lands in the middle of an operation being conducted by Israel's Mossad.All of these factors combine to make for a decent read.It will keep you wondering if the First Team can head off a massive religious war.
