Great review on a book whose story line is my favourite. A book about a war veteran from the mob fighting terrorism and a wannabe president. This is a book worth reading.

When I first started reading Bishop's War it seemed cliché and grotesquely violent. This review warns about the graphic violence, but I was still unprepared for the sadistic revenge torture a few pages in. However, the review was so positive I kept reading, and at the end of the preview, I was a definitely engrossed. I'm pretty curious about what someone truly knowledgable about military, police, and gang life would say about this book. The Hollywood comparison seems really apt - like most decent Hollywood thrillers aspects of the book feel incredibly exaggerated and made-up (I think it's more noticeable because the start is so abhorrent, the later narratives build up more naturally and suspending disbelief for the book's universe gets easier), but it's also compelling. I haven't read at all many books in the genre, so it was useful to learn from that the reviewer thinks it holds up to bestselling books.

it sounds like an action packed book and very entertaining

Today, I have come to read this hostilities and warfare; and saw the Afghanian war, terrorists in New York, Government corruption; and ; a family crime on the wall.

A hero named ' Sqt John Bishop' sets his foot on fights ; " Too many characters I found to rub elbows with rough treates. .

" Bishop " comes with cousin and takes the rap for stopping this unexpected act. I thank him for taking the enemy under his wing.

I'm only part way through the book, but I totally agree with your comments. I found it fast paced, action packed, gory - loving it!
Looking forward to it being made into a movie!
