Richards has continued Nick’s story very well in this typically well-paced and action packed thriller. The awards ceremony being taken over, that was pretty cool. New York and the Horses, students being kept offline and blogging, the analysis of war planes, all these served to cement the agendas of his characters and were significantly real exemplars. Despite knowing what’s coming somewhat, you really can’t but help dive into these escapist, enjoyable thrillers and I found this one executed well. It’s great to see an author producing work in line with current events, and extrapolating so nicely on thoughts of the future. A few editing issues (Brianweb, the most obvious), but a neat, enjoyable thrilling escape.
