Rating: Summary: Absolute garbage Review: This could possibly be the worst book of it's type that I've ever read. I can't even bring myself to list all its failings. Please avoid this book like the plague. Try Vince Flynn instead.
Rating: Summary: Can't Put This Book Down Review: This is a great book and I couldn't put this book down. You should read this book if you love any book that involves the FBI or the Secret Service.
Rating: Summary: Thor Soars!!!! Review: This was one heck of a good read. It had all of the ingredients that people like Ludlum, Clancy,Flynn and Cussler like to mix into their stories. There is a dastardly villian - a brave and handsome hero - an interesting cast of characters, some villians, some brave men and women - a love interest - intrigue - adventure - action and a turning and twisitng plot that will keep you interested to the end.Scott Harvath, a Secret Service Agent is part of the detail that is protecting the President and his daughter while on a skiing vacation in Utah. A conspiracy at the highest levels of government causes the skiing party to be ambushed and only Harvath, the President and his daughter survive the assault. However, the President has been kidnapped and the remainder of the book deals with Harvath's crusade to avenge his fallen comrades and recover the President alive. How he goes about that makes for interesting and page turning reading. This book is the first in a series of at least two as there is a sequel which has been released and which I will be reviewing shortly. It's good to have another top flight action writer on the scene.
Rating: Summary: Worthy Successor to Ludlum and Clancy Review: Thor's debut novel "Lions of Lucerne" is an incredible first effort, and a "must read" for lovers of the thriller genre. The fast pace and strong character development support and compliment an interesting and believable plotline, culminating in one of the best novels I have ever read in this genre. Kudos to Mr. Thor, lets hope he becomes as prolific as his predecessors.
Rating: Summary: a good, fastpaced, fun read Review: Well, let me start off by telling you why this book received 4 stars from me instead of five. It was predictable, and the hero was almost too good to be true.Now....that said, I really did enjoy this book. I love thrillers (like Ludlum and Forysyth) and this book fits the bill. It was fast paced, very well written, I could see the action and feel some of the emotions. I think it is a great beginning for this author, and I look forward to his next book, and look forward to seeing this character again. So don't let the four stars stop you from reading it, just go into it with the knowledge that you will probably know where the author is going, but you will have fun if you go along for the ride.
Rating: Summary: my first thor novel! Review: wow! what a read! a thrill a minute page turner! good stuff, i'm looking forward to reading more of his works.
