Another exciting 24 novel

I think this is the best one I read so far, I usually do not like to read, but the 24 series are so much fun to read, once you start you cant put the book down. A+ Now I wont read the ones from Jacob, they got too many bad reviews.

Captivating

If you like the show you will like the book. The story keeps you just as captivated as the show does. I found myself picturing Jack in the scenes. It is hard to stop reading once you get started. Buy them all - I have and they are all great books...

How it all began...

...And then there was no turning back! This book marks the beginning saga of how Jack joins the then-fledgeling CTU, leaving behind the overseas skulduggery of the CIA, when he realizes that he can do what he does best while in the US. The war is no more oveseas, but here and now - and he can perhaps do more here than there. This story is a particularly well-written 24-declassified mission to come out in recent times - and I've read quite a few of them. This book has the speed of the TV series, as well as about as many twists and turns, and also comparable number of dead-ends and red-herrings that are thrown in - for good measure, I must say. All characters are shown as if introducing them for the first time, which itself would not have been an easy task, knowing as how well the reader would already know them all. Still, this is handled well by Whitman, and he introduces all characters with some pertinent information, most of which is new but still fits into the personality as displayed by the TV series. Chapelle, Henderson, Myers, Almeida, Jamie, and many more - they're all here! Jack's character is introduced as being a hot-headed rogue CIA agent, who is being eyed by Christian Henderson, director CTU, to join his newly-created Federal agency. Henderson knows that it's just a matter of time before Jack's skills as an investigator and agent provocateur become essential to the success of CTU. Jack, however, sees no need to leave the CIA, which he finds to be the best place to fight terrorism, and to serve his country. The plot in this book serves to open his eyes to the fact that the action can no more be preventive but reactive - for the terrorists are on US soil already. Whick would implicitly mean that the CIA has failed in its assignment of nipping the caper in the bud. This one day gives Jack enough action to realize that he can do more with CTU than with the CIA, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Jack is back!

I loved this book, and after the horrific Storm Force I was a little worried about the series. But here, Jack is back in his full glory, in a wonderfully contorted plot that involves interdenominational terrorists. With action that picks up and doesn't let us down. I think the only negative for me is that Jack never really gets to meet the man whom the terrorists are after here, and that could have been a real revelation. But there was plenty to enjoy so that I practically read this in one sitting.

Read How Jack Bauer Was Recruited To CTU

As a die-hard "24" fan, I have really enjoyed all the "24" Declassified novels (except for "Storm Force"). This one was interesting because through the main storyline featuring a terrorist threat surrounding a historical "peace" conference gathering of the major religions of the world, we learn about the early days of CTU and how Jack Bauer is recruited to work at CTU. We also find out that Jack and Ryan Chapelle didn't get along from the very beginning. This made for some interesting dialog/conflict between these two characters. It was also fun to read about when Jack & Nina first met & worked together. All and all another interesting and fun read. There's only one problem though; I read through these novels so fast I wish two of them were released at one time. I hope more are coming. They are great for us "24" fans waiting for Season 7 of the series.
