srchief 's review for:
Gideon's Sword
by Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child
I really enjoy the story-telling of Preston & Child. In this story Gideon Crew is a one time thief and current respectable Los Alamos scientist that has a mission to complete. His dying mother told him that his father, a disgraced scientist, was a scapegoat and was really innocent. He has planned for ten years to carry out revenge on the responsible party, his father's boss. Crew carries out his revenge with precision and looks forward to a quiet future but his activity has been monitored by a independent party. For Preston & Child fans, Eli Glynn is a character that has appeared in several novels and is re-introduced. They want Gideon to carry out a very special task that is both dangerous and challenging. The only question is can Gideon get through it in one piece?
The twists and turns are a wonderful story and in the end you might be surprised how it turns out. I look forward to reading more of these types of stories.
