I almost gave this book 4 stars, because of the level of graphic violence, but then I realized it is impossible to describe military action realistically without depicting the violence. The violence here is no more offensive than an episode of "Supernatural." The plot is well-conceived. The narration and dialogue are effective, and written in well-crafted sentences. The writing is highly descriptive and cinematic. At no point is the story slow or without action. In fact, reading an Executioner novel is like watching an old Chuck Norris movie. The Executioner books are less technical (with respect to science & technology)than Stony Man, and usually 100 pages shorter. There are elements of espionage fiction here, but the series is nothing like James Bond, but basically military fiction. This is another good, quick read at 218 pages.
