And the enemy is ready to strike again.Ī new president offers hope to a country weary of conflict. The enemy has been patient, learning, and adapting. Two decades since the United States was attacked on home soil and embarked on twenty years of war. It’s been twenty years since September 11. This fourth thriller in the Terminal List series “ should go down as one of the best books in the genre, period” ( The Real Book Spy) as it follows former Navy SEAL James Reece embarking on a top-secret CIA mission of retribution twenty years. Get ready!” -Chris Pratt, star of The Terminal List, coming to Prime Video “Take my word for it, James Reece is one rowdy motherf***er. Overall, I enjoyed the was a good read.INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR

That’s just me - very middle of the road. Again, I read to be entertained, not preached to about personal political viewpoints. I’ve always appreciated those thriller authors who can write nonpartisan political action thrillers without bashing either side in their storytelling. The story was really really good - Carr is extremely knowledgeable and an excellent researcher, but the storyline got lost in the mud with his personal politics. Way too “in your face” with the far right-wing capital-C conservative politics for me this time. I just wanted to read about James Reese kicking bad guys’ asses while being supported by his friends, colleagues and his country. I love Jack Carr as an author, but I’m not a fan of the negative partisan politics, the ugly racial divide and the pandemic made into a political issue that has engulfed our country right now. Carr’s fourth installment felt less about James Reese and more about Carr’s personal political soap box. We get enough of that already from all the different broadcast media outlets and social media. This book felt like it was written in an effort to ‘own the Libs” and how one side of the political aisle handled the current pandemic. Yes I know the book is a political action thriller and that Jack Carr is a Conservative, but this one was a little too much for a nonpartisan, moderate military brat who wants to be entertained when I read and not read the author’s personal political jabs whether I agree with them or not.

But what really bothered me about this particular book was Carr’s constant disparaging comments and ‘right-wing’ political jabs throughout an otherwise well written and superbly researched story. Don’t get me wrong, “The Devil’s Hand” ‘overall’ was a really good story and Jack Carr has quickly become one of the best storytellers in the action thriller genre. This one was difficult! I loved all three of Jack Carr’s previous books but this one was way too over the top. Book Review - I was extremely torn in writing this review but I have always tried to be honest and fair with all my reviews.

The devil's hand a thriller
