Well, this book seems pretty "mid" for me. Although I wish to give it a try, it doesn't seem like I would enjoy it.
Thanks for the review though.
I believe that great success is possible in any field - From music to mathematics to macro trading.

Thank you for sharing your review with us. This book sounds action driven and suspenseful. The plot sounds realistic in that technology is our next big problem when it comes to terrorism, espionage and wars.

Fast-paced and simple to read, but not to the point that the plot lacks depth and life. Although it's simple to relate to Reagan, the plot is what really makes this book stand out. What a journey this book sounds like it will be. I enjoy reading fast-paced thrillers because they have all the elements I look for in a good book: a pursuit, suspense, mystery, action, high-tech gadgets, and the protagonist's search for the object in question. The book is the first priority to read. I was already interested in the sample, so I simply did not want to put it down. Congrats on botd!

Nick and Carol race against time in this thriller book to save America from radical jihadists who plan to use a Ghost chip that could set off various explosions. A thrilling plot-driven story.

This is an action-packed suspense thriller. Jeffrey Stephens' Nick and Carlos tackling contemporary issues of terrorism is a well chosen plot. Nick seems to be a very confident and intelligent agent to tackle the problems. Would like to read this sometime. Your review is well written touching all aspects of the book. Congratulations on the BOTD!

Books on espionage are not my go to choice when looking for something to read. I don’t think I will read because as the reviewer said the author didn’t focus on the characters. And character development is very important for me.

The review is as exhilarating as the sampled pages. I enjoyed the onset of the novel and look forward to a complete read. Espionage, a sprinkle of romance, and non-stop action has never disappointed me. Congratulations to the author for being selected as today's BOTD choice.

There are certain words I look for in book descriptions that interest me. CIA, microchip, stuff like that. I love conspiracy theory unravelling books. And the aspect of terrorism is also something I find interesting, I would love to read this book.

This isn't usually the type of book I choose, but I'm glad that it had non-stop action. I know that element will appeal to fan s of this genre. The fact that Nick and Carol's characters didn't change may appeal to some readers as well. Thank you for a great review!
