Mack Bolan the Executioner #319
Entry Point
Point of vulnerability.
The mission seemed simple- find out who shot and killed an FBI nano-scientist, then locate his missing partner. But Mack Bolan discovers the deadly truth about the U.S. government's top-secret defense technology. It's been breached by terrorists, who are about to manipulate the country's most classified data- from satellites to troop movements, as well as the nation's last firewall: Stony Man.
With the local mafia already scavenging for the remains of a crumbling technology, America is facing a crisis of unimaginable proportions. Seconds count as Bolan follows a bloodbath to the mountains of Afghanistan for a final confrontation with the masterminds of what could be the most savage terrorist attack in history. The Executioner is willing to die trying to make sure it's not successful- not by a long shot.

3.5 stars
The Executioner: Entry Point kicks off like a bullet and never really slows down. The plot is straightforward but effective: Mack Bolan continues his relentless one-man war, dismantling enemies with precision and grit. What’s surprising is how—even at nearly 20 years old—the book still feels oddly contemporary, especially in its pacing and its stripped-down, no-nonsense storytelling.
Plot-wise, Bolan gets dragged into yet another global conspiracy, this time involving DARPA’s cutting-edge computers being hacked—an attack that could spell death for every government employee in the system. The trail inevitably winds its way back to a stereotypical Islamic terrorist network, sending Bolan across Pakistan and Afghanistan with his trademark arsenal in tow. It’s a mix of cyber-paranoia and boots-on-the-ground firefights, and while the villains feel a bit cardboard, the book’s breathless pace and globe-trotting shootouts keep things from ever feeling dull.
This isn’t a book that lingers; it’s fast, punchy, and over before you know it. The action is tight and frequent, with just enough detail to keep you hooked without bogging things down. Sure, it’s not high literature, but it’s not trying to be—it’s a lean, brutal little thrill ride, which is exactly what we've come to expect from this long running series.
