I’ve never felt the need to comment on a writer’s actual writing style before, but the prose contained so many exclamation marks that it kind of took me out of it at times.

This book is what you would get if Michael Bay had directed the first Jurassic Park movie.

Intensity is well written and maintained throughout (hard to put down), similar to Jurassic Park but still new and interesting. VERY violent and touch cliche, but still very good

Fast-paced, very pro-US and anti-China tones, but overall an adventurous and easy read

Remind me not to see the movie if they make one. It would be way too bloody.

This is an awesome tale told in the best way possible and without too many plot holes or cliff hangers, I really liked the tale.
