The Athena Project by Brad Thor
2.0
Charlie's Angels meets Delta Force and blah, blah, blah. You know the drill in a a book like this: Men are REAL men, women are REAL women and drug overlords from the Balkans with excessive body hair, personal hygiene issues and sexist attitudes are REAL drug overlords from the Balkans with excessive body hair, personal hygiene issues and sexist attitudes.
But thank god Team Barbie Doll (Diversity Edition™) is on watch to protect us all from the above, as well as some confused mess about "rediscovered" Nazi technology a mere 60+ years after the fact. Boy, those Nazis sure were busy, busy, busy inventing stuff, which we should all be thankful for, since it gives hack authors a way to pull stuff out of their rectum that might otherwise seriously plug them up.
PS: I wonder if the author of this masterpiece even knows the first thing about the Athena of mythology? Like the perpetual virginity thing, getting popped out of Zeus's head a fully grown adult fully clad in her armor and that where she gets a mention in anything I've read she comes across as rather sterile and flat. Oh. Maybe he does know at least that last bit.
PPS: Gotta with two stars. I finished the damn thing, and due to the obvious degeneration of my intellectual capacity and utter lack of taste kept reading even as I kept groaning.
