Another one from Instafreebie and probably the first one to come back and bite me on the bum.
The blurb sounds like it would be right up my street and it was pacey with plenty of action, but no real character development or depth if I'm honest. Consequently I had zero connection to the plot or emotional investment in the outcome.
We have an insanely high body count and fair to say the author delivers on the death and carnage part of the deal. Some of the action scenes seemed a little bit over-described. Every move, punch and kick or bullet described to the nth degree - a little bit more faith in the reader to join the dots up might have worked better.
There's a bit of a curve ball thrown when our Badass Mexican Girl gets a little sidetracked when on her mission to wipe out the Colombian drug supplier. A rescue mission is easily taken in the stride of our protagonist. And there's decent bit of scheming at the end to draw out our adversaries.
Bits of humour Morales injected into the book lightened the tone at points, especially when one of our vicious narco bosses got a rebound from his hot branding iron.
Sadly, overall a bit of a disappointment, but not a totally wasted effort. If you don't try you'll never know.

True enough, Col. You do never know if you don't try. Still, this doesn't much sound like one for me. And I'm sorry to hear it didn't do more for you.
ReplyDeleteNo problem, Margot. I hope he goes on to write better stories.
