The Red Wolf Conspiracy by Robert V.S. Redick
2.0
I really wanted to like this, the concept of having most of the action and plot at sea was interesting and fresh. However the characters just didn't live up to the plot.
I don't expect half the main characters to die but I also think if you are making out your bad characters to be super evil and willing to kill millions they better actual come off as halfway scary, which wasn't the case here. I also felt as though our "heroes" were way too nice, if someone is going to destroy the world as you know it you probably shouldn't worry about one somewhat innocent casualty on a boat. It didn't help that I thought the main two characters were idiots even considering their ages. To be fair it was nicely written, and I finished it quickly. I will probably check out the next book in the series but if it stays as "light" as this one I wouldn't read more from the author.
