4.0 out of 5 stars Move over Tom Clancy and make room for Trevor Scott, October 7, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Fatal Network (Jake Adams International Thriller Series #1) (Paperback)

Jake Adams is well on his way to becoming the next American hero. He's smart, mysterious and witty. If you like reading Tom Clancy's books, you'll love this first in a series of techno thrillers featuring Jake Adams.

The book should appeal to many people since it includes thrills, espionage and even romance. Jake Adams takes you on an adventure through Germany, Italy and other European locations in search of a missing American tech rep. As the former CIA agent unravels the mystery, it becomes more complex. Just when you think you have the mystery solved, the plot takes surprising twists.

I'm looking forward to the next Jake Adams adventure.

5.0 out of 5 stars That's a thriller!, June 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Fatal Network (Jake Adams International Thriller Series #1) (Paperback)

This is a real thriller from start to finish. I loved the characters, the settings, and the concept of these high-tech computer chips. The book also deals with the negative aspects of a burgeoning bureaucracy. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding!, May 7, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Fatal Network (Jake Adams International Thriller Series #1) (Paperback)

Holy Cow, can this dude write? You bet! I first heard this book in abridged audio driving through Kansas. Kept me awake all night. Might have saved my life. So, I get home and go to my local book store to find the actual book. Not there. That's a true shame. So, I buy it online at my favorite store (guess which one:). The written book is even better than the audio. Now I've gone back and purchased his entire list. He's better than Grisham, Sandford, Clancy, and that Dan Brown guy any day of the week. He's like a young Jack Higgins. Buy this book! Ya gotta do it...
