O why didn't I keep reading?

I found this old destroyer issue by chance. I had stopped reading a few years back when the books got really bad. My only question is why didn't someone tell me they got good again!!!!! This was a very exciting read. Something about it just felt "right". Just like the old days. Now I will have to try to find the next issues.

Remo lives!

I can't express how happy i was to see remo and chuin back the way they ought to be. The previous few issues in the series had me worried that they would join the ranks of the many souls they have vanquished in the Great Void. Not so! This book is great. I could not put it down.

All hail Remo.

To me the wonder of this issue of the Destroyer novels can be summed up in one statment. It seems, Warren Murphy has seen through the conspiracy between the heaven's gate cult and the incredible success of the ice cream gurus Ben and Jerry. In such a confusing world thank god we have Remo to show us where things really stand and how this world really works. Also I found it quite touching that both Remo and Chiun wished they could have done something to stop the disaster in Waco, but they explain they were off on a different assignment. Who says assassins are heartless.

It's about time!

After slogging through the last three so-called "Destroyer" novels I was delighted to find our magnificent heroes back in true form. The reader who said Remo and Smith weren't themselves is OUT OF HIS MIND! The characters are great again, the parody is subtle (the Ross Perot parody is gleefully nasty) and the villains are evil incarnate. I only wished for a more extended battle scene at the end of the book. Clearly the author(s?) knows his Remo mythology. I have read these books for almost three decades and found no differenece between this book and the greatest Destroyers of days gone by. Long live Sinanju!

THE DARK DAYS ARE OVER!!!!!!!!

After a miserable yearlong trek through the "hack executioner writer's swamp" the series is back with a vengenace! Remo and Chiun are themselves again! Great story! Great villains! One of the best since the days of Murphy and Sapir! I only wonder why GE didn't use this one instead of the junk that was the previous three entries?
