Title: James Bond meets Batman
Review: Ted Bell takes an facinating premise; Islamic terrorists using South America and Mexico to wage war against the united states; and ruins it with a cast of characters and plot twists that seem like they were drawn by teenage boys.Our hero is an impossibly rich British lord who is in the spy business and spends his fortune on toys like a 240 ft. super yacht outfitted with state-of-the-art weapons systems, and staffed with private army of mercenaries on retainer.Add to the mix some of the hokiest dialogue I've seen in years and you have a book that is virtually un-readable. I would have liked to see how the book ended, but it ended up in the trash only half-read.What Mr. Bell needs is a good editor... or to move Hawke to the pages of a comic book.
