4 I mentioned the other day that I was pleased as punch that I’d finally started reading this book.
I real wish I’d found the joy of reading Barry Eisler sooner. This book, the first in Eisler’s John Rain series, is magnificent.
Great story, great setting and one of the coolest characters I’ve encountered. I have a fondness for assassins, thanks to an introduction to Donald Hamilton’s Matt Helm series (thanks Ike!) about fifteen years ago.
John Rain, while not the cavalier hero that Helm represents, raised the bar for people who want to write about paid killers. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series now.
