brents 's review for:

On Target by Mark Greaney
4.0

I really dig the Gray Man. There were some lines and actions in this book by the Gray Man that rival some of the best Mitch Rapp lines and scenes. I'll definitely be working my way through the rest of this series. Also, the narrator for these audio books is fantastic. He gets the character and has no problem switching accents etc which is important in the genre of international espionage thrillers.

As for this specific book I enjoyed the action and the tension, but to be honest there were some plot elements that almost kept it from being a 4 star book. The female character from the ICC that Court journeys with for awhile added nothing to the story for me other than being somewhat annoying. Also, the ending and climax weren't as well constructed as they should be. It's hard to say why without spoilers, but I don't understand having a character make an important choice if ultimately that choice doesn't matter. Overall though I really enjoyed this book and the series.
