A review by embingham
The Athena Project by Brad Thor

2.0

The only reason I bumped my rating up to 2 stars was because there were some parts of the story that were moderately interesting. Overall, very poor writing. I felt like I was reading an adult book that was written by a high school student. Brad Thor does too much "telling" in his writing and not enough "showing." Also, he goes into extreme detail to explain all about the guns and equipment that the team is using. To me, it detracted from the action to have to trudge through a bunch of boring unnecessary details about what type of gun each character was using. The one saving grace of this book was the reader. I listened to the book on tape, and the reader was quite good.
