Remote Control by Andy McNab
4.0

I actually really enjoyed this. It's the sort of action story where the protagonist doesn't just go through crap to come out as the saviour - Nick Stone goes through crap, and then more crap, and then to top it off, even more crap.

I really enjoyed the action and the thought processes behind characters' decisions. I also really liked that there were real events sprinkled into the story too. There was a description of a fight in this book that made me feel a bit sick, but to be honest, that made me appreciate the moment all the more.

The only thing that mildly irritated me was that characters were always eating, and always eating fast food. In seven days I think they ate about 50 times, so I'm a little surprised that they weren't the size of whales by the end of the book.

Other than that, I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be continuing with this series.
