A review by theamyleblanc
The Last Agent by Robert Dugoni
3.0
I received a copy of this story from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Again, I'm honored to have received an ARC of Robert Dugoni's upcoming novel! It was a pleasure adventuring with Charles Jenkins once more. This one, however, fell a bit short of the mark for me. I much preferred his previous novel - The Eighth Sister - to this continuation.
This one felt like it was all about how many crazy scenarios the characters could be thrown into and escape from. I enjoyed the calmer moments of planning and strategizing because it felt like peeking behind the curtain. And there wasn't as much of the Russian culture and history in this one. Don't get me wrong; it's a very enjoyable read! It just needed a bit of a boost to push it into a great read.
I'd recommend this book to anyone who:
- enjoys a good action story
- likes spies and their hijinx
- wants a quick, entertaining, and transporting read
