Like "24" but in print! January 9, 2009
This is a real page-turner, based on plausible events, political biases
and mistakes included. A great read.

Mitch Rapp is Back January 7, 2009
The wait is over for all you Mitch Rapp fans!!! The terrorists are back and they are determined to spill as much American blood as possible. In "Extreme Measures," Vince Flynn has not only brought back his infamous spy as a protagonist who has a tendency to eliminate every American blood spilling vigilante on the planet but more importantly he brought back a type of book that we haven't read since the glorious Cold War days of Tom Clancy, Robert Ludlum, and John LeCarre. Not only does the reader fall in love with the dangerous but necessary Mitch Rapp but Flynn's inside knowledge of military and intelligence schemes leaves the reader with a sense of dread and paranoia they haven't felt since 9/11 and height of the Cold War. Don't worry with a hero like Mitch Rapp on America's side, we are a safer than a soccer mom in a VW mini-van.
"Extreme Measures," is Vince Flynn's 10th spy thriller and he hasn't missed one step or even shuffled whatsoever. Of course the deadly but morally sound Mitch Rapp returns to defend America against Al-Qaeda but he's joined by an equally impressive C.I.A. operative in Mike Nash. A cell of Al-Qaeda terrorists have escaped the clutches of all international intelligence agencies and have begun a suicide mission that ultimately will end on the doorsteps of America's politicians. Using his motto of protect America under any circumstances, Rapp receives crucial information about this plot but soon finds himself sabotaged by his own government. In a time when the United States of America has a bright red target on it's head and with every terrorist organization in the world holding a target rifle full of hollowed point bullets, Flynn analyzes an important issue that surrounds the war on terror; how far is too far? Flynn carefully constructs a plotline that makes every reader question their own morality and how far would they go to protect their own country and inevitably loved ones. We already know that Mitch Rapp will do absolutely everything in his power and break disobey every line, paragraph, and notation in the Geneva Convention but will this be enough?
Extreme Measures January 7, 2009
This is a fascinating book. Enjoy the mystery plus dialog that really illustrates people who don't really understand who the U. S. is dealing with. They do not value the human person and use them to their own end.
Extreme Measures January 6, 2009
I read the book and the available reviews at the time. I would say Extreme Measures was on par with the rest of Flynn's work. Having said that, I do enjoy the Mitch Rapp character more than Mike Nash family man. Rapp works better alone. Just turn him lose and he'll take care of it.
