Action Plus


The reviews said that this book was a 'page turner' and they were right. That tends to happen when there is non stop action and suspense. This is another story of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict with terrorists, nuclear bombs, plots to kill presidents, and, again, world domination. Two highly trained operatives accidentally hook up and, between them, solve all the problems of the world. The characters are likable and larger than life, hardly believable, but then that is why they call it fiction. We wish there were people out there who could take care of things the way these two do. No remorse, no conscience, no political correctness, just quick decisions and even quicker action.
The plot is way too far fetched and when the ending came, with its absolutely absurd and out of left field ending, I just laughed. "Yeah, right," says I.
 Even fiction has to have a somewhat believable and logical plot so I will only give this book three stars.
Warning: Mature content.
