Kill Shot

Hooks you on to finish all Vince's books. A brilliant writer churned out page turners till his untimely death. Mitch Rapp is action personified- no nonsense, don't waste time kinda guy !

That's a usual Mitch Rapp-Story. So I can't follow the bad reviews to this writing. Everything what you expect and accustomed to is put together in this book.This is a story about the younger Mitch Rapp. Just 25 and just one year as an operative in the agency he is in Paris just to murder another nameless terrorist. But something went terrible wrong. He was expected and so he ends up with a serious wound in his shoulder. Someone betrayed him... but who? His handler Irene, her boss or his trainer Stan? But Mitch Rapp would not be Mitch Rapp if he packs his things and fly back to the states. No, someone have to pay. With his trainer Stan Hurley on his feet and an obscure french intelligence officer this book has a thrilling story.Nearly in every triller are some parts, that are not as thrilling than the rest of the book. But this is no circumstance for a bad review. Especially when Vince Flynn wrote something about a rival of Rapp or about the life of Irene Kennedy, the handler of Rapp. These scenes are naturally not as thrilling as the parts, when Rapp goes to „work“, but they tell us something about the background of Rapps life. And so, these parts are interesting and very useful to understand the protagonists of the books. And don't follow other reviews and belive this book contains only one shooting at the beginning... there are other scenes with a lot of slugs, blood and violence.Noteable is, that Mitch Rapp is not the only center of the book... there is another one... a she. Perhaps this is a style, which not every reader is accostumed to. Two lines of action.And so this book is as fast-paced, thrilling and interesting as every book from Vince Flynn about Mitch Rapp. I would say, Vince Flynn is one of the few writers – like Lee Child – who is able to write a #1 thriller after another. And this book is no exception. I refuse to reduce Mitch Rapp, Irene Kennedy and all the other figures in the Rapp-Series to blind killing-machines. And thanks to Flynn, we will learn something about the protagonists.

Vince Flynn has a very incredible detailed way to take you into the action that really open your excitement from the beginning to the end. If you enjoy political drama with lots of action and characters that feel so real you can't stop reading Kill Shot is a riveting read along with Vince's other books. His main character Mitch Rapp is an american hero who understands what it takes to fight terrorism and dam the politicians. His boss (Director of the CIA) is the most commanding female character I've ever read. I guarantee that once you read one of his books you'll want to read them all.I couldn't put it down. Never a dull moment with Mitch Rapp. I like the twists and turns that kept me glued to the story. I would recommend this book for first time readers.

Bought it for my sister who liked it.

Im only new to Vince Flynn (last few months) but have purchased 6 book sso far off Amazon, Kill Shot is the second I have read. Been a huge fan of Lee Childs Jack Reacher series - think I am actually enjoying this more. (nothing in it) Cant put it down, great author, knows his stuff. Just love it. What a legacy he left behind
