But equally important in making the novel an especially memorable one, are the numerous supporting characters... A first-rate thriller. - <em>Book Chase</em></p><p> </p><p> "Powerful, true to life, and explosive... A story that could be ripped right out of the headlines." - <em>Just Reviews</em></p><p> </p><p> "Mike Bond writes with an urgency few other authors have been able to maintain. Mailer was able to do it to some degree. Tom Wolfe and Hunter Thompson had their ears to the ground. But Mike Bond has assumed this mantle for the 21st century." - <em>BookTrib</em></p><p> </p><p> "<strong><em>Assassins </em></strong>can be terrifying, chilling and more, but it also will enlighten its readers... It's an eye-opener, a page-turner." - <em>CultureBuzz</em></p><p> <em> </em></p><p> "An epic spy story... rife with tension and feeling... A cohesive and compelling story of political intrigue, religious fanaticism, love, brotherhood and the ultimate pursuit of peace." - <em>Honolulu Star-Advertiser</em></p><p> </p><p> "A thrilling read in which tension never relaxes.. that will sear the reader's memory long after the last page is turned! Highly recommended, well-crafted fiction that tells the vivid story of an endless war!" - <em>Crystal Book Reviews</em></p><p> </p><p> "Riveting, thrilling, and... so realistic and fast-paced that the reader felt as if they were actually there... Definitely not the propaganda spewed out by CNN and the other major news sources over the last 10-15 years... This book was earth-shattering for me." - <em>NetGalley</em></p><p> </p><p> "The action is outstanding and realistic. The suspense flows from page to page... Wow, I wish everyone could read and understand this book." - <em>Goodreads</em></p><br>
