Bit of a shame that the entire sabotage plan is exposed before the climax. Thank you very much for such a wonderfully detailed review, though. Great work!
Yes. Exposing readers to the plot through the perspectives of antagonists adds colours to the story. Thank you very much for your kind words! :tiphat:

Of course it makes the plot interesting. Thank you very much for commenting! :tiphat:

This one seems interesting. Books with military intervention are usually fast-paced and action packed. Thank you for your in-depth review.

This book doesn't sound like it would interest me, and I dislike the use of military terms without explanation. I think I will skip this book.

I love thrillers, but a narrative given from different perspectives may be tiresome. Still sounds like a very engaging read :) Thanks for a great review!

I'm not really into military books, so I'm not sure this is right for me, especially with the military terminology. I enjoyed reading your review, though. Good job!

The enemy within is the worst enemy you can come across, knowing your plans makes him always one step ahead even more, because you never know the enemy or anything about him and the negative impact of the enemy might be hard to realize.
