No Way Back

Sam Pope #7

by Robert Enright

WE ARE WHO WE ARE.

Almost two years after returning from America and walking away from the fight, Sam Pope is living a quiet, peaceful life. Working alongside his close friend, Adrian Pearce, to help underprivileged kids, Sam is searching for redemption for the things he has done and the people he has lost.


To him, the fight is over.


But when an ambitious reporter delves too far into a shady corporation's dealings, she falls foul of the power and desperation of the elite. A desperation that soon turns violent, with heart breaking consequences for a close friend of Sam's.


Racked with the guilt of his past and with justice unlikely, Sam faces a gruelling battle to not return to his old ways. But when good people are hurt, and bad people walk free, there comes a time when someone has to fight back.

Repetition

I enjoyed the first three or four Sam Pope books. However, as they've gone on, I've noticed that the author spends at least the first chapter summarizing his previous books. He also uses flashbacks that are essentially summaries of material he's already explained in previous books. As of book 7 it's pretty clear that it's the same old story. Bad guys do bad things. The cops can do nothing or won't do anything. Sam feels he needs to do the right thing and goes out and creates mayhem. Sam manages to escape because the good people around him understand that although what he is doing is criminal, what he is doing is also the right thing to do.

You now have the plot of all the Sam Pope books since at least book 4.

To be fair, I like a lot about this character, but I'm not enjoying the repetition of story material.

Sam is back

This 7th Sam Pope book was like all the others. I did not want to finish it, but I could not stop reading it. Again there were parts where tears stung my eyes for Sam, his words that this fabulously insightful author put in his mouth and then my mind are the most heartfelt I've read through all the genre's I favour. Tears also for Pierce and Weaver who believed in Sam to do the right thing. His gesture to Curtis was who Sam is. I truly hope there will be more. The adrenaline I felt all through this latest read needs feeding!

No Way Back Robert Enright

Sam Pope had started a new life. Turned the page. Sometimes, it doesn't last if you do the right thing and go with your conscious. The few people in life he cares about are being threatened. Brutally. Once again, Sam Pope has to return to his former self, A trained assassin. Non stop action from the first to last page. An excellent read!! Enjoyed immensely!!

Sam Pope is it an enigma to me

Undoubtedly Sam is an enigma to many of Robert Enright’’s readers. I find that I root for him throughout the book knowing exactly what he’s going to do, but also find it hard to believe that anyone could kill without mercy. I know that those who die by his hand deserve it, but I don’t think I could do it. That being said, I can’t wait for the next Sam Pope book.

[Dave and Joan]

Is this Sam’s last hurrah?
Is this when age starts creeping into his abilities and finally takes it’s tole?
This book give these and a few other questions from the start of the book. It develops very deliberately into a classic Sam Pope story.
Sam finds himself, again, having to make a lot of hard decisions for himself and others.
Must read adventure!

[john alder]

Another great read. I have read all of the Sam Pope books in order and have never been disappointed. Each book is action packed and very difficult to put down. I will now start to read the next book in the series, The Kingdom. A big thank you to the author Robert Enright, and from me another well deserved 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It's a rough life but someone has to step up

Wonderful read,meeting new people, working for a while and helping so many. Again, fast paced and on the road to survival. Sam can't seem to get a break. But he gets the bad guys for sure. This is the first ever I have been consumed by someone's writing. It only gets better.

Could have been shorter

At least 40% of this individual book was a rehash from the past 7 books in the season. One more in the series. . . I will read it to finish the series, after breaking noses and arms, after Sam gets more gunshot wounds, and stabbed a few more times, perhaps Jamie will tell his dad that it’s now time.

[Gary]

I’ve read each book up to this one and the first 2 or 3 were good. By book 4 the repetition of looking back at the previous plots was beginning to get boring and I found myself skipping pages. This was the worst for me of keep repeating what had happened in previous books so I won’t read on now. The plot is now getting boring and I’ve lost interest… so time to look for another book.

[Kyle]

This is the first one I’ve listened to and the first one I haven’t enjoyed. The writing seemed lazy and full of cliches. The narrator’s voice was awful, every line was like he was reading a news headline and his accents were terrible. Unfortunately bought as a 3 pack (books 7-9) on audible so two more books with the same narrator. Hoping the next is better…

[Leslie Cliff]

wow couldn’t put it down

This was the 7th in this series and to say it WAS the best!!!! Is an understatement.
I have been told off by my wife for neglecting her!!! Well worth been told off for this read!!! If you get the chance READ ON !!!!

[john parry]

just can’t put it down

Read this book in 2 sittings..just impossibly to put down…each page each chapter you must know the answer too..
Sam pope is right…something must be done outside the law to keep to the law…..next one please.

[Graham Leslie]

Loved loved loved this.

I read this in a day. It was build up of sam pope coming back into action after swearing a life of peace. I don't have alot to say other than I enjoyed it from start to finish. Is book 8 out yet? I do hope so.

[Richard Cowart]

Sam is back in London working as Jonathan Cooper at the youth center. A group of bullies put his friend in a coma and he can not stand by without doing something so Sam is on the loose. Fast paced action packed good reading.

[Joel Anderson]

Where Did Sam Go

Upon his return from the states, Sam declares that the fight was over for him and, having been declared dead, he is starting anew. Bit life it appears will not allow him to do that. Will he stay dead or come back and make others dead?

Time to find out.

[Pete Hales]

Just Brilliant

Another wonderfully written episode in the life of our hero Sam Pope. Fast paced and gritty, you wonder as you read of Sam has finally met his match!
A rollercoaster of a ride from start to finish, once you start you just can't stop!

[Jessica R]

another fantastic Sam Pope story

The author writes beautifully and there’s such a depth to the characters that you really feel like you know them well. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

[Jay Clement]

79-2025: our hero is again dragged back into his former life, and rights some wrongs. The bad guys picked on a friend of our hero, and he had to fix things. There were a few too many long flashbacks to previous books, which lost a star. But our guy does some justice.

[Mr Kenneth L Mullen]

Another Excellent Story

Another excellent story by Robert Enright in the Sam Pope series. Lots of the usual characters and a great storyline. Plenty of action and a storyline that moved at a very fast pace.Looking forward to reading more.

[MR GARY J FOX]

It gets better and better

Another brilliant read ! . Although a little sceptical about what the next stage of Sam's life would look like it soon took off at speed and threat after threat was met as only Sam can . Brilliant !!

[mr julian butcher]

Do the wrong thing for the right reasons.

How death, murder and violence can be made to be wholesome and uplifting is a strange feeling but this is certainly what Enright manages with Sam Pope. Anyway... Off to buy the next instalmemt...

[Rish]

thlaat 1 chapters felt incomplete and rushed, overall another above average enter in the sam pope saga. it's definitely written with a TV show in mind and is the most compact in terms of the story and the scale of the 7 so far. looking forward to the next one.

[Keith Oddy]

Still trademark violence with more subtle story lines.

Still trademark violence with more subtle story lines. Old and new characters inhabit fresh storylines. Still some gratuitous violence and blood thirsty scenes. Where to next . . .

[Michael]

It seems like Sam is being pushed to his limits.

Two years in to a new life, Sam is thrust into a battle with a powerful business that gets exposed for their corruption. His battle begins when trying to protect a news reporter.

[Billy]

good man, always

Sam Pope is a good man no matter what name he uses.
He will help anyone that needs him, because IT’s THE RIGHT THING TO DO!
Fast pace book with lots of excitement!

[Linda L.]

One of the best things about this author is the way he takes the first chapter and summarizes the previous adventures of Sam Pope. Being that this is Book 7, and I hadn’t read one in awhile, I needed the review! After the first chapter I felt completely up to date!

[Colin Pirie]

Too repetitive. Too much history. Spoilt a reasonable story. Its understandable to provide the history for a first time reader but it could have been more concise. He's a fine character who deserves more action than the extended history provided. Still worth reading

[r fields]

Good!! Read

Another action packed Sam Pope adventure. If you want a heart warming story of dip roaring action you have a hard time finding a better one.

[John Loaring]

Sam Pope is a great character and I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

[Paul Pearce]

Great book

Fantastic storyline had me gripped since the first page I urge everyone to read this series you won’t be disappointed
