Book Description

October 1, 2002 Destroyer (Book 129)
There's some nasty sibling rivalry in the family assassination business . . .

For Remo, Sinanju's Holiest tradition is "cash up front"

But as his long road to the rank of Reigning Master of the venerable house of assassins nears its end, the Time of Succession ritual begins. For the enforcement arm of CURE, this means making his way around the globe, killing the best assassins money can buy -- and proving to kings and presidents alike that Sinanju is the primo strategic weapon around.

For a reasonable fee, of course.

But there is a storm cloud on the horizon of Chiun's retirement and Remo's promotion: a dark nemesis has been reborn from the fires of evil and has unleashed his plot for vengeance. He starts by looting Chiun's treasure-filled basement in Sinanju. But he won't stop until he has fulfilled a prophecy of doom that even Chiun may not be able to thwart: the death of the Destroyer.

4.0 out of 5 stars I'll Miss You When You're Gone Jim, October 10, 2002
By 
The Rectifier (Harrisburg, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Father To Son (Destroyer 129) (Mass Market Paperback)
First, I would have given this book 5 stars if the final confrontation with the Dutchman had lasted longer. I think this was the shortest battle Purcell ever had.

James Mullaney had been laying the groundwork for this story quite some time and did an excellent job of bringing it together. It's interesting to look back over the first 129 novels and see how far both the storylines and characters have developed.

Finally, anyone who has ever read the series needs to pick up this book. It definitely marks the beginning of a new era. I can only hope that the next author to pick up this series cares about the characters enough to bring them to life as vividly as Jim has done.

5.0 out of 5 stars You can tell the author loves this series..., October 30, 2002
This review is from: Father To Son (Destroyer 129) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a book only a true fan of the series could write. It has EVERYTHING that has made the series so great over the decades. Jim is really wrapping things up before he leaves the series. Remo has ascended to #1 honcho of the house. Chiun has a new lease on life thanks to the Great Wang (sounds like soft core porn!) Shiva and Remo come to terms (pretty much.)

There's even more. The Dutchman. A mad russian monk. Chiun and the Queen of England?!? A look inside the people of Sinanju. Ingrates.

Buy the book. Buy several copies.
