A review by kweitkamp
Hard Target by J.B. Turner

2.0

Based on the story line of this book I thought I would enjoy it. However, the stereotypical characters and the "made-up" technology were distracting particularly since the technology was instrumental to the story. Situations and events didn't appear to have been thought through such as when a hacker who is being hunted by supposedly sophisticated bad guys travels from Miami to NYC on a bus without being spotted at either end of the trip in a bus station. Or, another character who is murdered in a fashion that is supposed to appear as suicide is "hung" in a hidden room where it's unlikely that anyone would have found him except someone suspecting foul play and searching for secret rooms. It was a disappointing read.
