Rogue Paperback – International Edition, November 1, 2011

Great story telling! Some reviews stated that there were too many characters in the story and it was confusing, but my impression was they were introduced with just enough detail and not all difficult to keep track of. The book is a little slow at the beginning but builds nicely, as a spy story should, as the story progresses. A very solid read overall with twists and turns to keep its exciting. Mark Sullivan presents an excellent expression of descriptions, details, and character development. I will be reading more of his Robin Monarch series!

Been looking for another protagonist to equal Reacher, Bourne. Found Robin Monarch! A great read but with thrills and spills! Ready to read on !

Just got to chapter six and the book started out good, then the author starts calling a pistol magazine a "clip" over and over again, and now I'm annoyed. If you are going to write novels in this genre, you absolutely need to now the difference between a magazine and a clip. A distinct difference. Then he writes, "coming up with the second clip, and slamming it into the magazine." Are you kidding me?After reading one of the best stories I've ever read in Beneath a Scarlet Sky: A Novel, I started looking for more from this author, but seeing this makes me wonder if he's out of his league with this genre.

Wasn’t the greatest spy novel this aficionado has ever read, but wht I really liked was the fact that Robin was an really anti-hero. His background was unlike any spy hero’s I’ve read before. Therefore, his behavior and motives, though in the truest sense, were genuinely admirable, his Robin Hood like actions made the title totally accurate. I would read more of Robin and his friends in the future

just disjointed action....many places, but very little connecting the story line. The author tried to create a bigger than life hero but Monarch simply is not that.

and memorable, though. I had just finished reading Sullivan's book on Italy during World War II, so it's hard to compare anything to the excellence of that.

This is a remarkable thriller you'll find hard to put down. Robin Monarch was once a top level CIA operative ... that is until he just walks away during an operation. Now, who is he? He's a thief stealing from the super-rich. But he's caught in a trap and is forced to complete the operation he had walked away from. The mission: obtaining the secret archives of Al-Qaeda. Well written and fast action.

Somewhat confusing, lots of twist and turns. Finally, I caught on and could not put this book down. The author has as boatload of information in his head and I am looking forward to the second book of this series.

I read the author's book BENEATH THE SCARLET SKY and so enjoyed it that I bought his book, ROGUE. I started reading the book and I realized it was about a CIA operative and I baulked about reading the book as I don't like CIA stories however I continued to read the book and I found myself quite absorbed in the story. I have now finished reading the book and I can honestly say that I found it informative, good reading and enjoyable. Thank you.

A great story. I kept turning the pages much longer than usual. All the characters are well drawn; the good guys are likable and the others ...well, would not be my friends either.

Fast action thriller, couldn't put it down. Kept my attention right to the end. Lost a point on the passwords. Does Mr Sullivan not realize passwords change regularly? However this overlooked, it did not deter my enjoyment of a brilliant read. When's the movie or tv series?

Now that was a great read. Really well written. I have found a new hero. Most enjoyable and quite a surprise as I found the author by accident.

I think Mark Sullivan is a great writer with lots of different but mind boggling escapades

Good story, believe and moves along at a good pace. Will be interested to see what else this author has written

A real page turner. Enjoyed this book immensely.

Good read.

Great book look forward to reading the next instalment.

Entertaining, fast- moving action thriller. I just love it when the good guys win, even if they're Americans!Most enjoyable!

Somewhat predictable, not outstanding within the genre.

Excellent book, I couldn't put it down a must read ...

Great story - believable characters, strong back story, motivations and context.
