Quiet long read where nothing ever happens. Never read anything be Griffin till now. Won't make that mistake again.
Nothing happens in this book. Nothing.
People just fly around and have meetings to discuss something that happened in the book before. Blah blah blah blah blah. No bad guys, no subplots, just endless discussion of some shootout at a house in another book. Something, anything, might have happened in the last quarter of the book, but I couldn't make myself waste any more of my life reading further.
Everything is Too Neat and Easy Having read Griffin's other books featuring Castillo I was eager to read this one. It is ok. Not great not awful. The editting or transferring to kindle(whatever you call it) is sloppy with many many errors. And everything is too convienent. Everyone speaks flawless Russian, Spanish, Germany or Hungarian like a native. Everyone knows everyone else. I like to suspend reality- thats why we read fiction- but I do like to believe that what I read could actually transpire.
I am going to buy the next in the series but if it is much like this one it will be my last. Adventure Novel I like just about anything written by Griffin. I own a lot of his books and I think he is a very good writer. I haven't found anybody I like as well as I like him.Pretty Boring! I read "The Hostage" first and thoroughly enjoyed it. From that positive experience, I decided that I should check out W.E.B. Griffin's books further. I just finished "The Hunters" and it was pretty boring and long winded. There was no action to be found and the whole book revolved around Castillo's crew running all around the world doing nothing. I'm not sure if I'll read any other W.E.B. Griffin books.Frustrated beyond belief I liked the first 2 books, but the Hunters drove me NUTS! It was beyond repetitive, the writing was trash, there were so many spelling mistakes that you wonder if it was ever edited! Please do not try to write in a different language without consulting someone that can speak it. The mistakes were unbelievable.
Nothing happens until 3/4 of the book - all it is Castillo going from one country to the next telling a history of the last book over and over again to anyone that will listen. I finally started skipping pages without missing anything..I want the days back that it took to read it.
