Official Review: The Navigator II: Irish Revenge

[CinWin]

I like how you told about the novel but did not give up any "spoilers". I too enjoyed the "Big Ryan" character. Thank you for the review.

Thanks for the review. Although these books with spies and thrillers elements are usually my thing, it's common that their characters are left aside in favor of action. While those teenage-like interactions that you mention about Joe might go a little against what you said about the characters development, perhaps I'll give this book an opportunity.

This is really not my type of book because it features history and religious conflict,its a good book to be read but not for me.Thanks anyway.

Thank you for the well-written review. It seems like a good story. Big Ryan is a more interesting character to me than Joe, his personal history makes me curious. Unfortunately, there are too many books and not enough time so I'm giving this one a pass for now.

Take a trip to rural Ireland looking for dissidents, finding love and adventure The Navigator will sweep you along in this well written tale.

It sounds similar to Sons of Anarchy but on the cop side of things. I'm interested to read it but I'm an OCD person and would need to read the first in there series before this.

My husband is Irish and we visited their last year so anything that has an interesting plot that takes place in Ireland I am interested in. This one sounds like it is right up my alley in the way of the plot too. The good ratings have me excited to read!

The historical context in which the book is written is very intriguing. As a reader, I received an insight into Irish history with the tales of the sea. The use of Irish language and connotations also capture the country's cultural aspects. Descriptive elements are also heavily used in the text. I can picture Joe at the pub drinking Guiness. Fiona's beauty and how Joe is smitten by it brings out the romance elements. I can also picture the Irish countryside and sees. The language used by Ray adds a bit of humor to the plot. I find myself saying "lassie" and trying to mimmick the Irish accent. I want to know more about Joe's character as a CIA agent and what he's in search of. I definitely want to see how Joe and Fiona's relationship will evolve. O'leary is also an interesting character. He seems to be a pirate of some sort. So far it's a good read for me. I would like to read part 1 to get more of the back story.

Thanks for your review. This sounds like a well thought out book discussing Northern Ireland. As a child of Irish parents, I feel that it is important to point out that the Republic of Ireland (most of the country) and Northern Ireland are two separate countries. “The Troubles” have mostly impacted Northern Ireland.

[Spirit Wandering]

I guess I'm missing a basic plot point here. Why would an American CIA agent be infiltrating the IRA? Wouldn't that be the job of British intelligence? As the review indicates, an American in a small Irish village would be very suspicious to the locals. Thanks for the review.

Irish conflict is not new to me, I have read so much about the IRA organization, and how busy they had international security. Your review is inspiring, and would encourage readers to want to know what really happened with all of the characters. But I don't think I would want to read "The Navigator II." It might be very interesting but I will consider catching up on my other readings for now. Great review!

[MarisaRose]

I haven’t read many books about Ireland, but this one seems like a great option for those wanting to learn more about the country’s turbulent past. Thanks for the insightful review!

[Frenjie]

Thanks for that very informative and well-written review! You made understand clearly what this novel is all about. Though the story truly sounds interesting, I didn't feel much excitement with it. Thus, I would say pass to this for now.

[Eagles Wings]

I am intrigued by the title. Surely I will read this.

Thank you for your review, reading through the reviews I'm suspecting a full dose of suspense and I'm looking forward to a well crafted work of fiction... I love this book already.
