Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Unrealistic, but fast paced and entertaining action.
Review: This book grabbed me in the first fifteen pages and never let go. The action is fast paced and entertaining, though unrealistic. The conclusion disappointed me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best books I've heard/read in a long time!
Review: I just got finished listening to the audiobook version of this book. 8 tapes of almost non-stop action and psychological warfare. I listened to this book because one of the book groups where I work is reading it. A fellow librarian said she had read it, and had LOVED it, so I picked it up from another library, and got totally immersed in it. I felt for David Elliott, who didn't have a clue as to why everyone would try to kill him. He was amazing, in all his combat mode, and Guardian Angel's mutterings. I can't believe he outwitted everybody! I want to see the movie, and think there should be a sequel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of my all time best. I highly recommend it.
Review: Great main character with an actioned packed plot. Can't wait for the movie. When is the next book coming out ?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Yarn
Review: We listened to the book on audio tape, found it hard to stop. The tale is well crafted, it has enough expected and unexpected twists and turns to make it believable, and hold our interests to the end. The characters are well crafted, with enough character development to make them believable, without feeling they are being described to death, and getting in the way of what they are doing. Some of the greatest parts are the details implied or left ambiguous, letting the reader (listener) add his/her own thoughts. GREAT BOOK. I came on line to look for others by the author.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A total ripoff - fast paced, but unoriginal
Review: This is a total rip-off of three stories all rolled into one lame, predictable story. Die Hard: He's a hero with marital trouble getting hunted through a sky scraper setting traps and shooting people. Outbreak / The Hot Zone: He's been infected with a mutating, airborne virus that will kill everyone on earth. Jacob's Ladder: He was given a mind-bending drug in Vietnam that makes him extremely paranoid.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Too Many Climax's, and a shaky story line.
Review: The book is like a bad action movie, with no story line, and very doubtful stunts. I laughed at how fake the story was, and how unintelligent the enemies where.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is too good to even get reviewed.
Review: I bought this book when it came out in August, 96 and read it in September for my 8th grade book report. By far the best book I've ever bought. Fast paced, non-stop action with an interesting twist at the end. An almost all-too-real situation, except for the fact that most of population would have been shot in the first 2 pages.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Reader is About to Have a Very Good Day
Review: I'd read this novel sometime last year, but is still vivid enough in my mind to write a review of it.

This admittedly implausible novel (why didn't the bad guys try to take him out in a less public venue, such as at home, for instance?) is nevertheless one of the most exciting reads you'll ever come across.

Dave Elliot arrives at the office to find that his boss wants him dead. While this may be a common concept to anyone who's ever held down a job in the corporate world, Garber then sets the action in fast forward mode and doesn't let up until there are 50 very dead bad guys lying and literally hanging around this office building.

If I were amazon, I wouldn't rate this book on a five blue star criteria: I'd use five white knuckles.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The thriller everyone should read, you can't put it down!
Review: This book about Dave Eilliot, a normal New York buissness man who starts getting stalked by terrosits. He was in the army and he is in wonderful shape. When everybody turns on him. He has to kill terrosits in self defense not knowing why. All of these terrsoits will try to kill before breakfast. He can trust no one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It is an amazing book
Review: The book speaks for itself
