Rogue was OK. Here, we meet Nathan Stone, a former military operative who was "killed" but brought back to life and is now used as a high-end hitman. The problem I have with Stone, and all the other characters, is that he's in no way likable. He and his sister had been beaten mercilessly by his drunken father until his sister killed him. So there's some empathy there. But Stone doesn't care who he kills.

He's assigned by The Committee, a rogue, private group of military and business leaders who look to kill those who want to slow down the military industrial complex, to kill a libertarian US senator. We find out pretty early on what's in store for Stone, though, so what follows isn't all that surprising.

I have started the 2nd book but so far it's pretty predicable. I hope Stone starts making conscious-based decisions but I'm not too encouraged so far. If he doesn't, I'll stop reading the series. ( )

Beyond realism

I like my fiction books to have some feel of realism. This book does not so that for me. Almost through the entire book I was shaking my head at the stupidity of the characters. They simply would not be so careless in real life. Oh my, I'm on a hit list to be killed. Let me go out alone on a hike in the wilderness where I will be totally alone and when I return the next day I will contact the FBI. REALLY!!! ( )
