Alex Dorring Thriller #1
Agent 192
What type of man hunts the bogeyman? Ex-MI6 agent Alex Dorring is kidnapped from a Ministry of Defence run psychiatric hospital. Abandoned in the middle of nowhere with no explanation, he finds himself hunted by a ruthless Defence Intelligence agent. His first thought is to hand himself in. But something won’t let him. Strange memories spur him into looking for the men who killed his family, the cause of his mental breakdown a year before. Is that the reason he’s been released? To take his revenge. Or is there another reason he’s been let go? As the bodies pile up and the mystery surrounding his release only becomes more bewildering, one thing is for sure. Whoever released Agent 192 has set free a world of pain. One that will stop at nothing until the truth is exposed.

Action packed story
The story keeps you on the edge of your seat. Twisting and turning the plot so you really aren’t sure who is good and who isn’t. Very entertaining. Enjoy.

Amazing Thriller
My favorite things about this book are its plot and characters, language use and transition style from section to section.

Good one
I was delightfully surprised at this authors fast paced, yet clear narrative of Alex. I am looking forward to a hopefully long lasting adventure.

Disappointing
In no way am I a critic. I just know what I enjoy reading, being a fan of this genre. I did not enjoy this, yet I did finish reading it. Though I enjoy senseless violence and gratuitous sex, this went overboard for me. The violence was overwhelming, and totally unbelievable. The plot included many characters, none of which were very appealing so it was hard to figure out who to root for. The changing time periods and locations made it difficult to put down and pick up and remember where you were. The violence was so constant and unpleasant I didn’t want to read it without frequent breaks. The different agents obviously had different numbers, and it became difficult to keep all of the numbers straight. I didn’t even care to make the effort. The plot became pretty stereotypical and there was little if any character development. It ended with the expectation that there is more to follow, but I will not be looking for it. I understand the work that was put into this, and there was occasional flickering enjoyment, but all in all, the end product failed. Sorry!

Plenty of Action but a bit Disjointed for an MI6 Story
Spies, betrayal, abandonment & International intrigue. The story takes place over several years making it difficult to follow at times. Missions go sideways sometimes and the even the best agents get left behind. When an agent is meant to be sacrificed in order to get a larger fish so to speak, there are bad feelings. If the agent somehow survives as agent 192 does, there may not be much left of his mind until given a reason. This story is all about those reasons.

Quite A Good Story
While I found the beginning of the novel to be a little confusing while the author set up the characters and background, I’m pleased to have not thrown in the towel. This is a well thought out story that included several unexpected twists. Like a lot of thrillers, it’s difficult to imagine these events could actually occur. But if you enjoy a good story, I recommend you give this a try. I plan on reading the next book in this series.

Though it is a fiction, there is always a lingering thought in the mind if it ever happens!
BOOM Booomm. What could be said beyond that. You are driven in a speed high way with lot of actions. Though we know the plot by cole is not going to be materialised, we are hooked to know how Alex is to thwart it. A real action thriller and I wonder why it is not tried in Hollywood.

Definitely a good read....
Not to be confused with GoodRead, the Amazon rate and review system. I enjoyed the book, though I could have used a play book to keep in mind who was with whom (Can't tell a friend from a foe without a play book!). Brian (GBR) lent a British MI6 voice to the storyline. Very much-needed.

Not what I expected...
A lot of feeding-do grand mischief...and big stretches of the imagination! I suppose I expected the calm, procedural, logical story to be had in his Jack Sheridan novels. These latter are much better, all around. All the same, for all the stretches, a decent read...

The Ultimate Agent
While I would rather the author use a name instead of number for his warriors the mystery was very interesting as well as varied.
The twists and turns between good and bad keep you wondering what is going to happen next.

Great intelligent agent story
Author kept me guessing whole book. Great read and page turner. Age old themes that author spiced up with great characters and story. Great ending and lead into next book in series.

Refreshing read
This is my first VV book and I found it to be very nice book. Dorring's adventure was thrilling, different from other books and it leaves you wanting for more-which I already set up to buy the series.

A good thriller with the right twists
It his was a good thriller and had the right twists to keep it going. I'm not sure I would have used the number 192 but maybe it will mean a later.

Interesting to read, elite assassin, a bungled job, has all the makings to keep a reader to the end.

This was a good read, but, c'mon you knew there was a but. Somewhere in the middle the plot gets revealed, but I was intrigued and that's what counts.
