A fitting tribute

I left my well-worn copy at the tribute/memorial table for President Reagan at the Moorpark College staging area for the shuttle to the casket viewing.

THE LAST RIDE OF RONALD REAGAN.

Destroyer#120 "The Last Monarch" belongs with the all-time best of the long-running adventure/satire series. Author James Mullaney combines broad and subtle satiric inspirations with an almost "Tom Clancy-esque" action plot to create a story that flows with a fast pace from start to finish. Added to this is a fond homage to a multi-faceted and for the most part maligned and misunderstood former President Of The United States. The sad truth about former President Reagan`s condition makes this storyline almost poignant in it`s portrayal of the man given a temporary reprieve from the ravages of Alzheimer`s and then allowed to shine heroically one last time. Author Mullaney is to be commended for a risky and daring bit of plotting,for this does of course,fly in the face of the common trend towards defaming Reagan`s character. But when seen in the light of the current Administration`s record and reputation;perhaps a reassessment of Reagan is truly in order.This would not be the first time that The Destroyer Series reflected more truth than so-called "non-fictional" sources. For long-time fans of the series this entry will be more than satisfying with the wit and vivid characterisations of the heroes and villains--another element the series is famous for. New readers will get a good intro and feel for the series` style and history.I`ve been reading "The Destroyer" for 25 years...so I ought to know.

God Bless The Destroyer

Another good book in this enjoyable series. Every time I finish a book, it reminds me why I am such a fan of "The Destroyer" series. (Great summer book)

If you read only one book this month, this should be it

The 120th book in this great long-running series is as entertaining as any of the other 119. Jim Mullaney has penned an exceptional adventure. Remo and Chiun are not matched against a super powerful villain or an ancient god or even a science-fictional android, just a good old-fashioned real world type crisis. In fact, there are two problems for our Destroyer duo to deal with; 1. a former president who suddenly remembers everything about CURE and gets kidnapped, and 2, a middle east madman with an incredibly powerful bomb stolen from a supposedly high security US installation. There is also a Sinanju legend thrown in and some answers to questions about the Destroyer that should have been answered years ago. If you are a returning fan or a new one, I think you will like this book.
