Review: The Enemy by Tom Wood (Goodreads Author)

The EnemyThe Enemy by Tom Wood
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3,5 stars

We meet up with Victor again in The Enemy, 2nd book in Tom Wood's Victor the Assassin Series!! If you've read the 1st book, The Hunter, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... - you will be familiar with this assassin extraordinaire - a man with no past and no real name, a loner whose sole mission is the job of taking out the target.

Well, Victor continues in the same career..well, with a slight difference - he now works for the good guys...or not so good guys...the old US agency....CIA!!!! This guy is something like James Bond/Jason Bourne on steroids!!! Everywhere he goes...mayhem happens!!

Victor's new mission is a non-stop fest of action, tension, killings, violence.......in my country, South Africa, we have a great way to describe what happens in this book........... .
Skop, Skiet en DonDer – literally "kicking, shooting and beating people up".....
Victor's new assignment is fraught with danger and betrayal.........one never knows who is a friend or enemy.

Clever and fast-paced plot and a lot of sub plots too....that take you on a never experienced roller-coaster ride.....that stops at the most spine-chilling climax.

in between travelling all over the globe.....with some great secondary characters and the most likable killer/scoundrel/rogue ever.

So, why only 3,5 stars?? Hell, the so many subplots just made my head spin!! IThis made it a bit hard to keep track of what was going on at times.

Okay, I think I need something to bring me down from this ride!!!!
