 McNabb by numbers December 29, 2008
Marcus G (Birmingham, UK)
This is the latest in the Nick Stone novels and I have to say it feels a little bit written by numbers - all the essential ingrediants are there but it doesn't quite mesh together into a gripping story. Worse, towards the end of the book, there is a lot of very very short chapters and lots of blank page - don't be fooled by the page count, this is a relatively short book to read.
I'm a huge fan of the Nick Stone novels so I was hoping for much much more.

I have read all Mcnab's books including the Nick Stone series and I feel this was this the Most disapointing. The action takes ages to get going, and before you know it your half way through and nothing exciting has happened. and when it does it is in short bursts with lots of waffle in between.
I love all the other books but I think maybe McNab has become abit Lazy and is relying on his name to sell. I hope the next book is a return to form.
McNab not quite McDrab November 20, 2008

Having read all the Nick Stone novels I have lately become less excited about new releases but as always I will buy it straight away and have it read within a few days.
With the last few books I have felt a little disappointed with McNabs offerings, but half way through this book I really felt that McNab had got back to his original best. In some ways I was thinking that i was in for a similar sort of read to Remote Control or Crisis Four, I love to read about how Stone prepares and plans for his tasks. But unfortunately my optimisim was met with the realisation that I was going to be let down.
It seemed that sometimes McNab would go into some detail on some things and then other times just use one sentence would be used where perhaps a little more detail would've been nice. I sometimes lost the sense of time within the story, I thought one piece of text followed on from another but then realised there was quite a time change.
It sounds like I'm a grump but I hanker for a novel in the same mould as Remote Control, Crisis Four or Firewall which i feel are McNabs best books to date. I still give it 4 out of 5 because it is still a good read. Also it's quite important that you have read the last novel at the very least to follow some of the story, if this is your first McNab book, read the others first otherwise half of what goes on, especially the relationship between Stone and Lynn, will not be as easy to follow.
Overall a good book which initially promises much but ultimately falls a little short of perfect.
Would also like to recommend a book by Duncan Falconer, The Protector.
 11 and still not out!! Brilliant read. November 9, 2008

For fans of the `Stone` series this is a must. The series is still as strong as ever and hasnt lost any of its sparkling action. As far as thrillers go this was very good. the story has plenty of violent action including an old Regiment buddy being tortured with a Black and Decker drill, before being shot in the head....nice! Seriously though the characters were deep and enthralling, keeping your interest all the way through. There was enough suspense to keep you turning the pages, and plenty of action. If you enjoy Lee Child`s Jack Reacher books then this will please you. I`m a series fan and enjoy Child and Michael Connelly books immensely, if you like Special Forces, terroist kind of thrillers read the `Soft Target` trilogy of books by Conrad Jones they are Special forces based and are real shockers. They are unputdownable!! The new Chris Ryan book is his best for years too. Back to the review, ten out of ten.
Another blinding book. November 2, 2008

I bought this book the other day and i started reading it as always with McNab his books spring to life in the first few pages. As for the content it is well worth a read for those budding McNab fans out there that have followed the life and troubles of the famous character Nick Stone. It was well worth the wait and hopefully Stone will continue to be the focal of McNabs books
Awesome
