American Assassin
I have just recently started to read the book by the Minnesotan author Vince Flynn. I just started the book today and have read for the entire day because it is such a good book. I'm unclear of which is the first book he wrote but i am reading the prequel of the series which he wrote after a few other books. the main character Mitch Rapp who is 23 is sent to a training camp with 6 other ex-military men, while he is only a lacrosse player at syracuse. about a 130 pages in it gives a full description of his background and why he wants to become an assassin. the reader learns that his long time girlfriend was killed by terrorists on a plane. The intended readers is definitely not for younger readers as both my parents have been reading the series for a while, also it can also soon be found because of the immense amount of swear-words throughout the book. if anyone is interested in an action packed book with a lot of fighting and killing then this is the book for you!

You were telling me about this yesterday and it sounds super interesting!Is it really dark or is it just violent?
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds Sick! I definitely going to read it thanks Kevin. I was wonder a few things about it though, is this a military training camp? I know you referred to the men as Ex-Military so that confuses me. If it is not who will he work for when he becomes an Assassin. I was also wondering if this is a modern day book or not. I tried to find clues in your description but it is hard to tell but my guess is that it is modern.
