    Awesome! I'm hooked...

    I like a book for what it is, something entertaining to give me a little distraction from the day-to-day. This book sure did that! I was so hooked - what a great read. Would totally recommend.

    My First Flynn Read, Very Entertaining

    This was the first Vince Flynn novel I've read, as I figured I'd start at the beginning with Mitch Rapp. I have to say that I was absolutely entertained throughout the entire book. Flynn did an excellent job of including multiple viewpoints, from Rapp to the CIA, FBI, Secret Service, the villains and even corrupt politicians. As a result, the entire book was fresh and there were never dull moments. About a third of the way through the book I felt as though I was rapidly approaching the climax, yet the fun had only just begun!

    Stressfully Good Reading

    Transfer of Power brings us Mitch Rapp and that dang reporter girl....I can do without the impending romance but thoroughly appreciated Rapp's ability to compartmentalize even her. It's something I've learned men can do and I laughed at that part because it was so my husband. Maybe that's why I love Mitch Rapp. He is a man as I understand men to be. It isn't often I come across men in literature who make sense to me. Mitch Rapp makes chillingly clear sense. Flynn is almost eerily prophetic at times, which makes the story stressful. There are times I have to walk away, stick my head in some bubblegum chick lit just to shake off the power of Flynn's fiction. If you didn't read Term Limits first, go back and start over. Term Limits will give you insight to characters who fall into support roles upon Mitch's arrival.

    Vince Flynn sinks the hook in deep...

    I've read all of these books and absolutely am amazed at how well rounded each of the characters are. They are so well written that in reading you can visualize it all playing out in front of you like a movie. A lot of writters have a guft for doing this but Vince Flynn is one of the best. We need more men like Mitch Rapp!!

    Great Book

    This is a great book!! It has to be one of the best books I have read. I got this book for my nook while it was free. When I read it I was very suprised it was free because it was so good. Vince Flynn does a great job at keeping you into the book and wanting to read more and more. The book is a page turner. Can't wait to read the other books in the series. If you are into suspense this is the perfect book for you.

    A Thriller from start to finish!

    I loved this book. It grabbed me by the throat and wouldn't let me put it down till the end! Great characters, attention to detail, and many twists and turns that I never saw coming. I loved many of the Tom Clancy - Jack Ryan books and Mitch Rapp reminds me of Clancy's John Clark. If you like the solo assassin type characters, you'll love Rapp.

    Typical Vince Flynn / Mitch Rapp Story - A Fun Thriller

    Hey Folks,

    This is typical of Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp political thrillers. Nothing all that special here, just fast paced action that keeps pages turning. In his preface letter to this book, Flynn makes a number of statements concerning our foreign policy which leads me to suspect I just may not want to vote for Mr. Flynn as President of the United States or wish to see him as our Secretary of State. I would not, however, allow Mr. Flynn's statements on US foreign policy interfere with the pleasure I receive reading his stories about the exciting Mitch Rapp.

    Best wishes,
    Dave Wile

    Highly Recommended

    One of the best series out there. Mitch Rapp is a great character. I have read all of the series and cannot wait for a new one to be published. If you read one you have to read them all.

    This is the First - Must Read

    This is the first in the Mitch Rapp series and having read two of the later books I decided to read the first. Intense! Also, clarified some of the interactions between characters that continue thru the series. Interesting character development.

    Fast Good read

    The story line is very interesting. I always enjoy Flynn's characters. This one does illustrate why this country needs needs strong leadership, not the type we now have in office

    Recommended as an action novel

    The Mitch Rapp is larger than life, but the pace is fast and entertaining. The book gives enough detail to know who, what, and when without bogging down the story. I enjoyed the book.
