Chapter by Chapter features me reading one chapter (or possibly multiple chapter for this one) of the selected book at the time and reviewing it as if I were reviewing an episode of a TV show or an issue of a comic. There will be spoilers if you haven’t read to the point I have, and if you’ve read further I ask that you don’t spoil anything further into the book. Think of it as read-along book club.
In our last installment we got a brief visit with the Striker team. It’s a longer chapter this week, so good thing I have the time to read it. It’s been that kind of…time.
Despite my misgivings going in, I’m actually enjoying this book so far. It seems to be bypassing most of the mistakes of the first novel. The unlikable aspects of our heroes are toned down, the chapters are still odd choices at times but at least last time they made good use of it, and while I still think it’s too early for the “evil twin” plot I have maintained interest in the story.
We’re still not at the halfway point so I hope you’re enjoying this readthrough, and let me know what you think if you have a copy and have been reading along. In the meantime, it’s on to the next chapter, and back to Russia.
