Christopher Wren #1-3
Box Set Christopher Wren Thriller: Books 1-3
They stole his truck. Big mistake.
Chris Wren is a black-ops legend, the CIA's perfect weapon against terror - until personal tragedy strikes and he flees into the wilderness of Utah.
Book 1 - Saint Justice
Wren pulls over on a Utah highway after three weeks on the road. An arbitrary decision he's about to regret. A biker gang attacks Wren, leaves him for dead and steals his truck.
Now he's going to get it back. From a secret warehouse in the desert. Ringed with fences. Filled with human cages. As the body count mounts and a shocking national conspiracy unravels, one thing is for certain.
Justice will be done.
Book 2 - No Mercy
The Blue Fairy, a mythical gang operating on the 'dark' Internet, has lashed out in the real world. Now one Detroit activist is dead, two more have been captured, and only Wren recognizes what's happening.
The monsters are coming out into the light. Only Wren and his brilliant CIA lieutenant Sally Rogers can stop them, but now the government is turning against them, a Blue Fairy army is rising, and one thing is for certain:
There can be no mercy for the wicked.
Book 3 - Make Them Pay
Deep in the Alaskan tundra, Chris Wren stumbles upon a snuff movie like no other. The budget was in the millions. The death was live-streamed on social media. The result is medieval - a billionaire banker torn apart before an audience of billions - and only Wren recognizes what it means.
Chaos is coming to America. Wren and Sally Rogers race to halt the charge into anarchy, but more snuff movies are coming, the viral message seems impossible to stop and the rage is overtopping the levees. There can be only one response.
Make them pay.
The Chris Wren thrillers are packed with rollercoaster twists that will leave you hungry for just one more page.
This digital box set contains the first three explosive thrillers in the bestselling Christopher Wren series: Saint Justice, No Mercy and Make Them Pay.

Page Turning Thrill Ride
Christopher Wren one of the more interesting Characters created by any action writer. Charismatic damaged character that grows because of his trauma riddled youth and troubled past that haunts him still. I can hardly wait to begin his next book. The first three kept getting better the more I read. This has become one of my favorite characters on par with Mitch Rapp, Ben Coe, Jack Reacher. Not quite to Harry Bosch yet, but he is growing. Maybe in 10 years he will surpass Bosch. I hope he withstands the test of time to reach Bosch status.

Apparently Not A Fan Of Mike Grist
I couldn’t finish this for a few reasons, not the least of which was the despicable nature of the books. Also was hard to follow, and pretty much unbelievable. I kept reading because I thought it was going to get better, and come to a good moral end, but I couldn’t hang around for it! I’m 62 and like my wife said, why waste your time reading something that you don’t like?? Sorry Mike, I really wanted to like it!

harrowing, breath-stealing, rollercoaster ride
And it’s not over yet as Christopher Wren still has past demons to exorcise; whether he wi be granted the opportunity to fulfill his destiny is still a question mark.

author seems to follow Qanon
Repetitive, lots of connections to Qanon conspiracy theories about pedophile cabals, lots of backwards introspection by the protagonist to the point of bleary eyed boredom. Definitely can’t recommend

Excellent
I really enjoyed this first series, full of action and very unusual but good plots. To me it is like Reacher on steroids. Big compliment since I very much enjoy the Reacher books )

Fast paced read
Great series keeps you turning pages. If you like non stop action this is for you, from the beginning until the last word it moves quickly.

cults
This was a well written book series. Very strong characters. Wren is so strong mentally & physically. The story lines are some of the things happening in our society.

I struggled
A great start but sadly really over the top from then on. Playing on the idea that America is run by paedophiles.
