Waterkill by Mark Donovan
4.0
There is a lot of action in this book! A lot!
There are a lot of detailed descriptions in this book on things like airplanes, surveillance, and bit about nanoscience, and it made me feel like I was reading a proper manly man equivalent of a book… Not that it couldn’t be enjoyed by female audience. It’s just that if I imagined this book, it would be a man. Full of action in different locations, all tied to a single goal by the terrorists. Rescue operations, self-preservation, lots of travel across the world and all sides fighting for what they feel is right.
There are explosions, fighting and a mighty adventure, great amount of innocents dying and clinically accurate layout to the whole thing. I feel, as a movie, it would work pretty great! I rated this book 4 stars- author has done great work around being very detailed and accurate in his writing, even if a lot of this information was sadly wasted on me. The descriptions of nanoscience, the aeroplanes and at times characters (their weight given in pounds) was lost on me. I don’t do pounds, so I could really have no idea what the characters looks like nor was I going to google for the converter. Author’s passion for planes is evident, but I’m just an airhead girl so this information meant absolutely nothing to me… That said- the plot was great and somewhat current.
