I like fast-paced action thrillers mixed with espionage. Nick sounds like a fascinating character with supporting roles from other characters. The plot depicting a well-known terrorist group however gives me second thought about reading it.

The review of this book is thorough and insightful. I look forward to reading the details of Nick and Gellos towards intercepting the activities of the terrorist. I am also curious to know whether the Ghost Chip truly exists and what its really function is.

The Handler by Jeffrey S. Stephens, a book revolving around crime and technology, sounds fantastic. Unfortunately, It is not my cup of tea, so I will not read it but recommend the book. Congratulations on the BOTD.

I'm not going to lie, this does have an interesting storyline. The idea of a new technology is thrilling. However, this is not a book I will enjoy reading. Congratulations on BOTD.

The plot of this book is in every way grappling. An action novel bound the keep readers interested and awake. Viewing this adventure for the eyes of Nick, the protagonist, we are able to feel the tension of the missions he embarks on. Only readers who aren't intrigued by terrorist actions in book will look past this book. Good review.

This techno thriller sounds like it is fast-paced and engaging, with satisfactory conclusions. It also sounds like an excellent start for a series. Great review!

This kind of genre is not my favourite, although the device that the terrorists are using, seems to be very original.

Your review is great, however, i'm not a fan of this kind of genre. I hope that fans of this kind of thriller will greatly enjoy it.

The plot sounds intriguing from a tech perspective but I feel like the plot is crowded and would proof quite the trip for me to read it. Congrats though on the book of the day

I like that this action packed novel doesn't have a lot of profanity and no sexual scenes as the plot is enough to keep readers wanting more. It's a shame that characters are not really developed individually, because it is not a character driven book but I still look forward to the reading experience. Thank you for the review!
