I can't tell you how sad I was to open this book and see Kyle Mills acknowledgments thanking Flynn's family and friends for trusting him to write the next Mitch Rapp book. Another of my favorite spy novel authors has left us (sad face). Yes, I know it was 3 years ago that he passed but still, I didn't think I'd get to the author carrying on the torch of the original so fast. That being said, Mills did a really good job with Mitch Rapp, he was able to really bring out the things Flynn spent years developing in his character. If you are a fan of Flynn or the Mitch Rapp novels, this will fit right in.
