1.0 out of 5 stars
Like watching a very bad late night movie,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mission: Third Force (Paperback)
I only got to page 20, even though I was stuck on the bus with nothing to read. Embarrassing, trite, silly, with every bad-movie cliche as dialogue. It opens with a mock end-of-the-world scenario in a war room that just sounds goofy. Cut to the fictitious country of "Bonterre" (a fictitious country in a spy novel? Are you kidding?) standing in for Vietnam. In the field, a colonel lectures that "guerrillas are cowards", then they're ambushed, he panics and has to be slapped by a sergeant and thanks him for it, while the guy with the mangled leg cracks jokes. Cut to W.A.R., where the hero looks at Q-like gadgets that sound stupid, and makes comments like, "Unless my eyes deceive me, that's a Russian T-34 tank." I quit there.
