Thoroughly enjoyed this box set. All adventures had different reasons, including blackmail. However the group, of divergent cultures, all worked together to achieve the honourable outcome. Despite there being many, many bodies in the reaching that goal. Well written and kept me reading well past my bedtime. The last story taking a different set of characters. Which I may have liked even more. Looking forward to more from that genre. No spoilers, buy the set, it is worth the read, if u like fast paced action and don't mind the body toll.
The first 4 books were enjoyable, but I must admit that the 5th book " Catalyst" had me on edge the whole time. For a start, I thought it was going to be along the lines of the other 4, but then realized it was so very different. It is full on, hard to put down, and has so much going on, it's great! Would definitely recommend all, especially the last. Enjoy.
Johnny Silver and his entire team and adventures were outstanding reading. The character development and the plots never lagged. I would highly recommend this set to any mystery/action adventure reader.
