It's a Destroyer Foe Smack-Down

The best so far by the newest author..... Mr. Gordons is back. The Dutchman is almost back. Remo is officially Reigning Master. Elize Roote (#118's foe) is back - and it's the first face off of two of Sinanju's greatest adversaries - Roote vs Mr. Gordons . Jim has packed so much into this book it's almost dizzying. O.J gets whacked. Stephen King gets lampooned. Back in #18 when we first met Mr. Gordons , Chiun plays with a model airplane, then kills someone with it. In #125, its a model rocket ship. In #18, Remo tries to fry Mr. Gordons with a rocket engine. In #125 it's a Space Shuttle engine. Smith's apprentice (Mark Howard) is coming into his own, just as Chiun's apprentice (the white thing) has ascended to Reigning Master. Mr. Gordons survives once again.

Very Good Entry in Series

It's good to see The Robotic Mr. Gordons back, one of this series best villians. Story moved right along, some funny stuff as well.

Wildly uneven

Wildly uneven, but creative 125th entry into the Destroyer series, once again pitting Remo and Chiun against their most prolific enemy. The author does a great job breathing new life into what could have been a typical entry. He also does an amazing job with continuity and incorporating detail from previous entries.The action is good, but some of the characterization is not the greatest. I did not believe nor enjoy the NASA threat. The coincidences also were a bit much. And I would not recommend this book to anyone who has not read the series. For the hardcore to the casual readers of the series, this is another critical novel to read with the positives far outweighing the negatives.
