A great fast paced thriller
Put up the splash guard, a lot of gore and violence. A great fast paced thriller. I will happily intersperse my extensive, varied reading with more of the books by Jon Land. Thankfully, he is a prolific writer.
not his best but a very good Jon
Forgot I had already read this one, not his best but a very good Jon Land
Jon Land Sets the Bar High for Action Thrillers!
Over the years I have read 28 Jon Land novels. Ten thrillers featuring Blaine McCracken, two with Jared Kimberlain, all seven featuring Ben/Danielle, seven stand-alone novels, and the first two Catlin Strong thrillers. But this one was my very first Jon Land title, from way back in the fall of 1990. I was overseas with the 101st for Desert Shield. As luck would it my tent was right next to the Divarty Chalpin's, and the Chaplin had the library with hundreds of paperbacks. Remember this was over 22 years ago: no cell phones, no IPads, no Kindles, no internet, just paperbacks/hardbacks. I picked up The Eighth Trumpet and was hooked right off the bat. I immediately went back and pick up another Jon Land thriller (with Blaine I am sure). When the 101st made their push up north to kick off Desert Storm, I knew my radar would be isolated and I would be out of touch with the library. So I gathered up as many Jon Land books as I could.
But this review is for the Kindle version. I picked up about 8 Jon Land thrillers around Thanksgiving time for only $2.02 each, and the new Blaine McCracken thrillerPandora's Templefor only $2.99. What a bargain! I had read all these older titles years before, but now I could go back in time and re-read them on my Kindle. My first choice up was of course to revisit The Eighth Trumpet. Yup, I still love it! After 22+ years I remembered the gist of the thriller, but not all the details. As I was reading The Eighth Trumpet it all started coming back to me. This is why I got I got hooked on the action thriller genre in the first place! Robert Ludlum had a lot to do with this, and Tom Clancy as well. But characters like Jared (the Ferryman) in outlandish James Bond type end-of-the-world thrillers became my favorites very quickly.
In this thriller andThe Ninth Dominion (Jared Kimberlain), Jon Land teams up two totally different characters.
