tkubas1 's review for:
The Terminal List
by Jack Carr
A good thriller with a couple of issues. It used that thing where the opening scene is from later in the story, and while it worked in terms of setting up the event, I think it was unnecessary and kind of spoiled that part. I never really like when they do that. After that, though, it kept getting better. This is just my personal taste, but I didn’t think the main character needed to be that brutal. It took away from his role as an avenger and made him more of a revenge seeker. The Punisher does something similar, but at least he doesn’t pretend to be a “good guy.” That said, it’s not a huge issue.
The ending really tied everything together. It was pretty sick.
EDIT
I liked the references to the real guns, knives, and equipment by brand name. It gave the story a realistic feel.
I was reading the reviews that criticized the book for being "Gun porn". They gave the book one star. Their flawed reviews are biased in that if it's about guns, it must be bad. If the character was describing his love of classic cars or antique painos, nobody would bat an eye. Essentially, if you are an anti-gun liberal you will not like this book. It would be like a right wing person reading about a bikelane hipster in San Francisco. They just won't be able to relate or enjoy.
