Search - Separation of Power (Mitch Rapp, Bk 3)

If you are new to the Mitch Rapp series, don't read this book until you have read The Third Option. This book resolves events from the previous book. Although Flynn does provide some background, IMHO it would be best to not jump into the series here.

This book starts out a little slow, focusing on Mitch's relationship with Anna and sort of assassin mid life crisis before the action starts. However, the character of Mitch Rapp is more fully fleshed out, and as usual Flynn turns the politics and corruption in Washington into nail biting suspense.

I was not sure I was ready for another Vince Flynn tale about the intrigues and politics of Washington, but this is one of the best so far. Certain parts were fraught with susupense, such as the scenes in Milan, some had antipated results, such as the raid in Iraq, but the most fun were the denouements toward the end, as the villians got their deserved desserts. Will this be the end of the Mitch Rapp series? Have no fear, according to the website, there are five more books in this series.

This book continues the plot started in The Third Option. It was slow-starting, with a lot of time spent recapping the events of that book. Two hundred pages in the action picks up and it is a thrilling read. It is a little dated as one of the story lines revolves around Saddam Hussein and his pursuit of nuclear weapons.

3 stars out of 5

Like the other " Mitch Rapp " books by Vince Flynn, the action is fast and furious. What amazes me is how often his plots have actually come to pass. It's like he can see the future. First class like all his others

Excellent, his books keep you turning the pages. I would highly reccommend this book

Any book by Vince Flyn is a winner.
