Only the Dead: A Thriller

Another masterpiece by Jack Carr. This book perfectly satisfies the thriller, spy readers with it superb storytelling and climax.Worth a read for any thriller readers and definitely a must for James Reece fans.

One does feel that way when one starts reading this book. As if one is reading a newspaper or some SM site.He drives home the point and also the knife where it matters,to kill.Enough twists in the tale and takes the reader by surprise. Killing scenes are graphic and chilling. No wonder I have read all James Reece books. Unapologetically violent but fun.

Great StorySuperb actionComplicated plotA new way to de-activate a nuclear bomb. Beats JAMES BOND entering passwords and digital codes.James REECE out does all;Binge reading is essential.The pace is frenetic and so is the read itself.Just read it and decide.

Great book, I’ve enjoyed the series up to this point thoroughly. I love Jack Carr. He’s a great author. This series is filled with action just what I love and thriller nonstop thank you for such a good story.

History, mistery, violent resolution and a healthy touch of current concerns and events.Glad to hear the seventh book is in the works.

Complete page turner. I read it in a day and a half. James reece is beast. Looking forward to the 2nd season of the terminal list aswell as the Ben Edward's prequel series. I hope this isn't the last time we get to read a James reece book. James and Katie deserve their wedding.

The author creates quite an intricate plot with several (seemingly) independent threads - until they suddenly converge; quite thrilling, but some pages read like a gun show catalog, just without pictures ;-) looking forward to #7 !!!

Having been disappointed with the previous novel in the series, In The Blood, I wasn't expecting much from Only The Dead. However I think this is Jack Carrs most developed story yet.He has manged to turn the title character of James Reece into an outdoors, everyday type American version of James Bond. And I found it thoroughly enjoyable. With the usual descriptive use of genuine weaponry, vehicles and equipment to provide some realism to the story. I found myself continually looking up the references. And unlike the previous book where a lot of the references seemed like literal product placements not always fitting the flow of the narrative. In Only The Dead the references seemed more appropriate.Don't get me wrong this story is completely far fetched. It isn't a fictional military story that has some realism due to the authors experience. This is more of a ridiculous James Bondesque, only one man can save the world from an anonymous group of bad guys, type of story with a bit of realism in the description and use of military equipment. But I read fiction for escapism and fun, Only The Dead provided plenty of both.
