I'm with Johnny Cook on this. His perfect composure after being kidnapped is very commendable.

Yes and not only that he somehow fended off a tiger and got the respect of his kidnappers. Crazy!

I liked Jack O'brien. I think he's kind of an underrated character. I think the dynamic that he shares with Jamie Munro is pretty entertaining.

For some reason I really like Jamie's wife, it was such a shame she wasn't in it more. She is such a genuine and sweet character

Sarah for sure is my favorite character. But I have to say that I loved Jack too.

My favourite of all time was Hendrick Janssen or should I say Dirk, our villain "evil laugh". Taking away the fact that he was our villain, his traits were quite remarkable. He was able to organise and convince people to get involved in his plans. He had magnificent planning and great sense of style and humour. He was strong willed, motivational, self- inspiring, optimistic and could switch roles from being the good guy people expects him to be to the desperate wild beast he actually was. 😱 This guy really deserves an award.

Sarah was my favorite. She had awesome tracking skills, and I liked her close sibling relationship with Jacko.

Fending off the tiger should have gannered him his freedom and not just the respect of his captors, but it was another instance in the book where Johnny Cook's deeds made him my favorite character.

That quite a unique selection that makes it all the more personal to you. I liked her as a character but thought she was just a safe mention in this book.

Yes that was very cool and courageous of him. I found that his quick analysis of his surrounding and appropriate decision making in tense situations are a joy to read about.

Me too. I absolutely loved the interactions between Sarah and her bikpela brother. It was very adorable and heartwarming to see in deep tense scenes. heir interactions would really ease up the tense scenes.

My favorite character has to be Jacko. I'd love to know more about him and I think he would be really interesting to sit and talk with.
