3.0 out of 5 stars
Crisis Nation,
By
This review is from: Crisis Nation (Executioner) (Mass Market Paperback)
Overall, a decent effort. Chuck Rogers delivers a good plot (maybe overly ambitious for a 188 page book), and a great cast of supporting characters. The Puerto Rican cops in particular are fleshed out and three-dimensional. Unfortunately, Mack is a two-dimensional cardboard cutout in this story. What does he think about anything? Who cares! On to the next ambush!
The action is non-stop, empty calories. Action book authors need to walk a fine line between too much action and too much development. Rogers tips well over into too much action in Crisis Nation. One star off for that. One star off for the ridiculous submarine warfare at the end of the book, and I'm being generous. Bolan as submarine captain, sailing a damaged mini sub across 200 miles of open ocean? Sorry, this strains the willing suspension of disbelief. Where was the editor? Those 20 pages would have been better spent letting us in on Bolan's thoughts. |
