A review by devilsangel360live
Palace of Treason by Jason Matthews
4.0
The magical team of Nate, Gable, Forsyth and Domi is back with more intrigue, deceit, treason, clandestine operations, and a lot more Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.
It is hard to follow the pace of Book#1 Red Sparrow, but JM has done it. Again, I have been able to augment my vocabulary through fantastic choice of words, read through many more exciting recipes at the end of each chapter and have been thoroughly entertained by this page turner.
The story is intense, pace is perfect, lead characters are impressive and the technicality is fabulous. The only way the book loses its touch is because of its over exuberance in portraying its characters. I find it hard to believe that everyone at CIA are these noble creatures, whereas any Russian we encounter (barring a couple) are in the words of Domi - "nekulturny" or ugly and disgusting. It seems very uni-dimensional, including President Putin.
I will hope the final part of the trilogy is equally enthralling and keeps me busy for a few many days when it comes out in February
