I enjoy reading mysteries and thrillers that revolve around aviation so I thought I would give this series about an Air Marshal a try. One of the things that I think is important in aviation themed books is adherence to accuracy regarding aircraft and their operation. Now, I fully admit that I’m jumping into this series in the fourth book rather than the first, but there are some wildly inaccurate concepts used that just do not exist in the airline industry. Also the reasoning for the bad guys doing what they did and technology they seemingly used were quite far-fetched. I can suspend disbelief when it’s called for but some things in this book were just flat-out wrong and don’t belong in a book like this. As far as the story goes, it was OK and I enjoyed the action, but it was hard to overlook the inaccuracies.
My first book (4) of this series. Definitely kept my interest with non-stop action, good plot, fast moving and characters you care about. Audio voices were all perfect for the characters. Will look for more in this series.
