I wish it had been just a bit longer, but it was still good. I will check out other books by this author. Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes, I could easily recommend not only this book but the entire series of book involving Mitch Rapp and his no nonsense and no BS way with dealing with anything that can lessen the safety of America or its allies.
Who was your favorite character and why? Mitch Rapp of course who is the main character so he is and sure be my favorite character of this book. But Irene Kennedy is a close second. Rapp has a way about him. He became an assassin for the CIA because he lost his girlfriend from terrorists, so now that terrorists are back and hurting the US he going to kick some ass. He is here to protect the US and its allies. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, if I had no responsibilities I would have listened to this and probably several of the other books in the series in a continuous listening episode. After seeing the author, Vince Flynn, on a t. Although he has 12 or more books with Rapp as the main character, most readers suggested reading the pre-quals he recently published before the actual series list.
The second pre-qual, Kill Shot, was a year in time after he was recruited. Both of these novels grabbed my interest and were exciting reads for someone who does not normally read activist, political thrillers.
Flynn is a very good writer, flushing out his characters and giving enough technical detail, but not too much, to educate the reader about the actions. Transfer of Power was actually the first published novel about Mitch Rapp.
Of the three I have read so far, it is the best and I can see why so many readers wanted the author to write the pre-quals to flush out the background on Mitch. I loved all three books but this one is very exciting and Mitch is definitely a strong, intelligent, patriotic hero.
I am looking forward to the remaining books in the series. Non-stop intrigue and action. The best I've read thus far from Vince Flynn.
Although this book is about 10 years old, the theme and events are still timely. The book was fast paced and I found I didn't want to put it down. As with all books in this genre, I do suspend my sense of belief. Once that is done, I can judge the book for what it is. I found this entertaining. I can never give this type of book more than 3 stars. Those just discovering the Mitch Rapp series are likely to find the earliest novels in the series this one was published in to be even more poignant than those who read them prior to the murders of September 11, New readers will also notice how Flynn's style has changed over the years as he, thankfully, lost most of his "Tom Clancy style" and streamlined his novels into even better thrillers.
