About this deal

It just felt a bit plodding to me, the action sequences weren’t as gripping as normally and it just felt a bit predictable. Immediate Action, McNab's autobiography, spent 18 weeks at the top of the bestseller lists following the lifting on an ex-parte injunction granted to the Ministry of Defence in September 1995. Andy McNab has written about his experiences in the SAS in two bestselling books, Bravo Two Zero (1993) and Immediate Action (1995). It’s almost like he’s had a reset over the last two or three books and events from before that are irrelevant.

Besides his writing work, he lectures to security and intelligence agencies in both the USA and UK, works in the film industry advising Hollywood on everything from covert procedure to training civilian actors to act like soldiers.

Andy McNab clearly wants to move on from Stone and focus on his new Shadow State series (I’ve read the first one, it’s not great) and his interest in the cyber world. An agent whose time is running out But there are deadly complications - not least that Nick soon discovers himself at the heart of a chilling cyber conspiracy that threatens war with Russia and the very existence of the Western alliance . Nick is as down to earth and resourceful as ever, but with a serious moral conscience that he’s never shown before.

Part of the problem is that she may not want to be rescued and the group do not seem cult like at all. Although his back up characters, whilst excellent, in the book may not be much help when physical help is needed. What he didn’t expect is to have a journey, an internal one, when he has the environment to think through his life and what he really cares about in life. Awarded both the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) and Military Medal (MM) during his military career, McNab was the British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he finally left the SAS in February 1993.The final Nick Stone adventure is more of the same, which I've always enjoyed, but here it feels oddly tepid. He wrote about his experiences in three books: the phenomenal bestseller Bravo Two Zero, Immediate Action and Seven Troop.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. But there are deadly complications—not least that Nick soon discovers himself at the heart of a chilling cyber conspiracy that threatens war with Russia and the very existence of the Western alliance. having read mcnab's non-fiction books as well as the entire nick stone series more than twice, this latest novel is a new low in a considerable line of lacking suspense, credibility or anything else that could make a book worthwhile to read. and that following a shocking diagnosis his body is failing him fast, and any day now he will have to ask himself the ultimate question.and that following a shocking diagnosis his body is failing him fast, and any day now he will have to ask himself the ultimate question .
