Review title: readable but deeply flawed
Product review: As far as action books go, this book works but only on a superficial level. The setting is great and the topic is fascinating but his characters are more than wooden they are also "all" unlikeable. Just about every character in his book lacks the ability to carry on a persuasive discussion. At just about every turn in the book when a character has to explain a critical event, that character is usually at a loss for words, thinking about something else or hushed up by a superior. With the character unable to explain the critcal event something bad happens or something good doesnt happen. The author uses this tension building formula so much thru out his book it turns just about all his characters into idiots that we end up not even caring about. And believe me, I am not talking two or three times in the book, I am talking two or three times for "EACH CHARACTER" in the book. And these character are supposed to be smart?
