A good entry in a good run

There have been some turkeys over the years. The terrible trio (108-110), some of the last Will Murray's, and some fill-in-the blank episodes in mid-stride. The new author seems to have a firm handle on the characters. What's more, he is bringing a bit of an edge back to the series that has been missing (just compare with some of the earlier entries). While there is some prolonged silliness in this one poking fun at Trekkers and UFOlogists, the overall tenor of the story is a bit harder edged than Murray's. For me, that's a good thing. Remo doesn't have to pile up the body count for my tastes, but he is involved in a grim occupation. The writing should reflect that, and it does now. Favorite among the scenes (and what helps make the book) is Smith's involvement in the plot and the fact that - if not for the intervention of a foolish character - he would have been the hero of the story, having stopped the bad guy with intellect and incredible though understated daring. A good book in the pantheon, and, according to others, they only get better from here!

STILL GOING STRONG

The Destroyer series are a series of books about Remo Williams and his teacher/adopted father Chuin, the Korean Master of Sinanju. The books have been around since the 1970's and have thrived for all this time for good reason. They are great fun to read. This entry continues the tradition. It pits our heroes against a "ZAPtacular" new foe with deadly powers. If you haven't read this book DO IT! If you haven't even heard of the Destroyer START READING IT NOW! It is best to start with the old volumes but they are out of print and hard to find. In conclusion five star fun must go for this book and the whole Destroyer series. Still great after all these years. Keep em' coming, guys. A loyal fan.

A Totally Shocking Experience!

The books just keep getting better and better. I read alot of books but The Destroyer series has been my favorite for years. This book puts Remo and Chuin against one of their most dangerous foes. It seems the future Master of Sinanju is still learning he's not indestuctible. The book is fun with alot of actions and humor. I recommend this one to all Destroyer fans. Enjoy!

Another Good Read

I am so happy that the Destoyer is in capable hands. The last few books have been very enjoyable to read. The action is great, the inter-paly between Remo and Chiun has been excellent. I would recommend this book to all Destroyer fans.

The Destroyer keeps getting better and better.

Anyone who thought Remo was too powerful for anyone to hurt better be prepared for this book. In it we meet a new, very powerful villain for Remo and Chiun to confront and he is more than a match for the future Master of Sinanju. The story moves quickly and has lots of great action that we have come to expect from The Destroyer. The humor and satire of the series is also very evident as the author, James Mullaney, takes shots at the world of science fiction fans and government conspiracies. This was a very enjoyable read and I hope for many more years of such books from Mr. Mullaney.
