I never actually realized the character change in the foreign leader. That's interesting.Ferdinand_otieno wrote: ↑01 Dec 2019, 03:23 The story has a lot of favorite parts and some that I liked least. For me, my favorite part was Sharon and Steve developing relationship despite their frosted and mistrustful meeting. The part I liked least in the story was the characterization of the terrorrist leader as initially intelligent and psychopathic but then turns around to timid and fearful.

My least favorite part is probably the talk show, the chapter and characters could have been intertwined in the story a bit more than just being seen on T.V. by the main characters for a few minutes.
My favorite part of the story is Steve. The story had more direction and action once he came along.

- Latest Review: Was She Crying for Me? by Jerry Hyde
We are definitely on the same page on both counts! I enjoyed Steve and Sharon's budding relationship. It was my favorite part too. And I certainly agree with you on the terrorist leader! She could lead an all-male team in a terrorist plot and bark out orders to them, but when Steve approached her on the beach when she was posing as a tourist she was like a scared rabbit! That was my least favorite part.Ferdinand_otieno wrote: ↑01 Dec 2019, 03:23 The story has a lot of favorite parts and some that I liked least.

The book hooked me in from the beginning, as well. Most books begin a little boring and then build up for action, while this one jumped into immediate action. I love action-packed books, so I enjoyed reading this one a lot.vermontelf wrote: ↑02 Dec 2019, 08:22 I really like the concept of the book and the action scenes. I loved how the book began with immediate action and hooked me in. However, I find the character development to be a weakness. I have mentioned in other strands, but around chapter nine I found my attention waning, this is when the American team is grouping together and getting to know each other, and I just did not find it believable and therefore uninteresting.

My least favourite part was the talk show bit which didn't really captivate me.

I'll agree with you on both points: succinctly suspenseful conclusion, seemingly complex talk show scene. I loved when Lt. "Flash" Gordon joined the cast! To infinity and beyond...kperm wrote: ↑03 Dec 2019, 08:13 The book has so many amazing parts that it's hard to choose which one is my favorite. I would say it's probably the ending. It was fascinating to see how everything resolved. My least favorite part of the book was the talk show. I think it wasn't as good as the rest of the book.
