This series is becoming on of my favorites from the Gold Eagle library. Along with Phoenix Force, these books get better and better. I liked the action and intrigue in here. It keeps you wanting more. Unfortunately that's what happens. This one is continued in book #6. That's the only thing I didn't like to much. But at least I do have #6. That's up next!
