I enjoyed this easy-to-read novel full of international intrigue and suspense. It's a novel that can be read on a beach or a rainy day as it's not too complicated and the story keeps you turning the pages to find out ultimately what will happen in the end.

I absolutely adored the pacing of this novel. It's one gut-punch after the other. The plot rolls so smoothly the entire time. I've been in something of a reading rut lately, and man, this book jerked me out of it. I found myself needing to read the next part, pushing myself to see what happened next.

Although the pacing is phenomenal, I believe it could be more in depth. There could definitely be more fluff between the layers. This is a minor complaint, because it's such a good story.

Overall, an excellent book! I learning experience wrapped up a wonderfully fast storyline. Look forward to reading more from Leonard Di Gregorio.

A great read

I thoroughly enjoyed this one! The story revolves around Moshe, a retired agent for Mossad living in the US under an assumed name for protection. He gets a call that his father was shot and has return to Israel. He discovers that it wasn't a random shooting, but retaliation from Jamal, looking to draw out the man that put him in prison and for killing his boy. Fireworks ensures as the deadly game of cat and mouse is being played by both Moshe and Jamal. Unbeknownst to Moshe, there's a deeper plot being played in the shadows, one that could kill many innocent people in the process. Can Moshe and team unravel the mystery or will more blood be spilled? Check it out and see for yourself. I highly recommend this one!

The world has been watching the conflicts in the Middle East for decades, not being aware of scenarios which play out in the background of international politics. Moshe Kaplan plays a riveting figure in a fast-paced action play. Being a Druze Arab born in Israel, he is an Israeli citizen with a US green card who is drawn into action by the Israeli Mossad to solve almost unsolvable problems. What impressed me in particular is the fine research into the local cultures and habits of people which was presented throughout. Reading RAGE, one cannot help but feel being drawn into the midst of everything. I enjoyed the plots and stories, taking me away to unknown quarters. And I am looking forward to reading the next mission of Moshe Kaplan.

Rage by Leonard Di Gregorio is a fast-paced and gripping, political thriller about Moshe Kaplan, a retired Mossad Assassin, and his team winding their way through the alleys and streets of Tel Aviv to save the people and the city they love.

With the perfect proportion of complex characters, violence, and action, fans of this genre will keep turning the pages until “The End” and inevitably read the next book.

I read Rage through a reading group, and although this is not my favorite genre, I thoroughly enjoyed Di Gregorio’s story and learning about Mossad—the national intelligence agency of Israel.

A enjoyable read!

I really enjoyed this easy, fast paced action thriller set in the Middle East. For me, It was refreshing reading a undercover agent's story who is not an American or British and gives an interesting point of view. The author keeps you engaged from the beginning, with a phone call that makes Moche to pack up and leave the US. The plot thickens when he has to defend his family. To stop another terror attack Moche has to walk a path he never wanted to.

Highly rec. Mild violence. It leans more towards action rather than a thriller. I have read this book as a part of a book club.

Exciting nail biting intriguing adventure into the world of Mossad

Absolutely, loved reading this adventure taking the reader into the life of a Mossad Operative. Easy to read and difficult to put down.
Great complex characters with a good balance of all sexes. Although their modis operandi is unconventional it gets results.
A book you can read on a plan, at the beach or anywhere. The violence is balanced so a lovely short time escape from reality. I just could get enough so I've bought the next one to read over the holidays. Well Done ! Vx

I really enjoyed this fast paced thriller. It had intrigue, a good plot, realistic violence (to be expected from a story about Mossad and terrorists), and a bit of romance too. At times I couldn’t read fast enough to find out how Moshe and the team would prevent disaster from happening in Tel Aviv! I want to read more about Moshe and Holly, so looking forward to reading the next book.

Fast paced

This is an intense and fast paced book, leaving you with very little room to breathe. And just when you thibk the story can't amplify in tension any more. It does.
Its a whirlwind of a rode and I would recommend you to read.

A Taut Thriller

This book was full of suspense, interesting characters, and a believable plot. Moshe was a great main character who was avenging his father's attack in the Middle East. It seems a sequel will be forthcoming, and I look forward to reading it.

Rage is Di Gregorio at his best, a writer who thrives on non-stop action and fast-paced story development. This thriller does just that, keeping you on your toes from Chapter 1 to the end. Rage is a quick read that meshes interesting characters with international intrigue. Entertaining novel.

Unsatisfying and boring.
