Storm Front

I read this book in 2014 durning NTC. I honestly did not think I would enjoy this book but I was wrong. One day before I was going to spend 2 weeks without phones, showers an all that good stuff. I went to the px to buy a book or two for this field training. I saw a whole bunch of books but this one an some other book caught my interest the most. So during most of ntc I did forget about these books until the last 3 days. When one of the vehicles could no longer move or be fixed. So during the last three days, i did nothing but read an wait. An this book was surprisingly good. The main character was a little annoying and the plot was simple.

Sooooo this was not my favorite Virgil Flowers book. It still had the humor, which I love, but I'm just not into this Israeli, Hezbollah terrorists, religious stuff. I don't know why. I like books like The Da Vinci Code, conspiracy laced in religion, but for some reason I just can't get into books like this.

It was still good, just disappointing to me based on the subject matter though I did like the twist at the end. I was afraid that somehow Sandford overlooked the discrepancies in the beginning, but of course that wasn't true.

There is one more thing that bothered me about this book that also bothered me in the last Virgil book, Mad River. The ones who got away. Virgil either knows who they are or flat out arrested them, but they still got away somehow. It doesn't ft with my just desserts mentality. It just struck me that maybe this is just another difference being highlighted between Lucas and Virgil. Lucas will go back and fix it, legal or not, but Virgil will just wait it out. Sure, it bugs him, but I think he figures they'll get what's coming to them.
