This was the first book I have read by Andrew Kaplan. I enjoyed it. It kept me turning the pages, and it also led me to purchase his next book, "Scorpion Winter". I liked the depictions of international locations. It made me feel like the author had actually been there and he probably has. as have I. One complaint and question: how did the protagonist get his handgun and ammo through security at the train stations and airports?!

I suppose most readers would class this story as a work of fiction. In literary circles they would be correct. But, in our real world this plot is not so outlandish. America has many enemies, and they dislike us for a variety of reasons. I liked this book not just for the plot, but i can picture an agent acting in the manner our storys primary character. He shows strenghts and weaknesses, he is caring and cold, in my opinion he shows his humanity. He carries out his mission, although he is clearly conflicted about it. I don't agree that he would not have killed his adversary, when he was presented with that opportunity. I would recommend this author to others, for his plots and for his central character. JRV

This was the first book I have read by Andrew Kaplan. I enjoyed it. It kept me turning the pages, and it also led me to purchase his next book, "Scorpion Winter". I liked the depictions of international locations. It made me feel like the author had actually been there and he probably has . . . as have I. One complaint and question: how did the protagonist get his handgun and ammo through security at the train stations and airports?! In summary, I would have liked to have seen more character development, and I didn't think too highly of the ending. The build up was exciting, but the climax was mundane.

I'm actually having a hard time finishing this book and that's a rare thing for me. There's plenty of action but if you want more than that, you're in trouble. I felt like every other line was written to make me think the author was too clever by half. The constant use of a foreign language, followed immediately by its translation, got tiresome as did the numerous referrals to his type of martial art. Sentences that use five or more commas need to be rewritten and a lack of clarity in his use of pronouns made me lose focus as I tried to figure out who was doing what.

I'm not normally a person bothered by these kinds of issues but the repetition is driving me nuts.

I had not read this author before and was pleasantly surprised by his ability. It was intriguing and kept one's attention while making you think hard about the clandestine role some agents have to play to keep us safe. Kudos to them and this author.

A suspense filled novel. Andrew Kaplan manages to set the tone of this story in such a way that the reader is unable to put it down. Scorpion is one of those action characters that makes you enjoy his dangerous missions, his ability to think ahead of his adversaries. Excellent book.

It's ok. Some places seemed like details were being repeated unnecessarily. Seemed like filler for no reason other than make the book longer

Gabar

A heroic super assassin caught up in political intrigue that is evocative of current times all wrapped up in a travelogue. When the book was done I felt like I had traveled through the Ukraine and knew its history. A satisfying read..

I thought I was getting the first book in the series, but it is the second. Scorpion comes first.

The first few pages are wonderful. It was downhill from there. The author's credits show that he has done a lot of screen plays and except for the beginning and one scene near the end that's what it read like. It needed actors to add depth to the characters and I say this even though I am a book reader and not a movie goer. The plot was well thought out but the delivery was flat. I love to read books in this genre that are a series with a continuing character but this simply isn't close to Barry Eisler or Daniel Silva. If you have read all of those and are looking for a fresh series, skip Scorpion and give Slow Horses a try.
