I love how Reece can kill his enemies in different ways. But his family is equally as impressive and I love them! Not just for what they continue to do for Reece, but because they're awesome people who can handle themselves in a crisis and are always there for the ones they care about. We already knew that Raife is a bad ass and a good dude. I'll leave it at that so I don't give anything away.Ĥ. They're intense and memorable for different reasons. There's plenty of action in Savage Son, but there are two main 'battle' scenes - one in Montana and one on a Russian island in the Bering Sea - that are just fantastic. Don't think I've ever read a book with a bad guy who does what Aleksandr does for fun.ģ.

Aleksandr is a sick mofo SVR director/son of a mob boss who feels Reece will finally provide a worthy opponent to his 'game.' Why do I call him a sick mofo? You have to read to find out but you won't be disappointed. Oliver is the cerebral one who plays a big role in Reece's past and knows he's in Reece's cross hairs so he wants to direct a preemptive strike. They're both solid bad guys for different reasons. There are 2 main bad guys - Oliver Grey and Aleksandr Zharkov - who play important but different roles in the book. He's been through great trauma in the past, so to see his emotional healing take place, even as it gets interrupted, is really great character development.Ģ. But you also get to see his evolving feelings towards those around him as he tries to determine what he wants to do next. He's still a kick-ass former SEAL who knows his way around weapons and tactics. Reece is trying to figure out his life and all kind of hell breaks loose.again. In True Believer, we learn more about what makes Reece tick as he strives for redemption and I believe this book is his true origin story. We get to meet Reece under the darkest of circumstances and cheer him on as he gets revenge.

The Terminal List is a balls to the wall thriller from start to end. The continued development of James Reece. But here are several reasons why I love this book:ġ.

And I'm happy to report it not only lived up to Jack's prior books, but it blew them away! It's magnificent!Īs always, I don't talk about too many specifics in this review in order to avoid giving anything away. Both The Terminal List and True Believer were in my Top 5 books from 20 respectively, so Savage Son had a lot to live up to. So when I won an advanced copy of Savage Son through Goodreads, I felt extremely privileged and lucky. Jack Carr has quickly become one of my favorite authors.
