Transfer of Power (Mitch Rapp #3) by Vince Flynn ★★★★★

“Nothing else mattered, especially not the political operative who had brought this snake into the White House.” 

Better than Olympus Has Fallen and White House Down combined is the original, and politically damning, Vince Flynn version, Transfer of Power. These books are my new obsession. It’s 3:30 in the morning and I was suppose to wake up at 4:30 - I blame you for this Flynn! 

Damn cowardly Hollywood for not making this version into a movie. Done well, this story could make a better movie than book.  This is because there were so many characters, fifty plus military/politicos/reporters, that strained the limits of my mental casting.

Still, the whole thing was cinematic. I give it four and a half stars, happily rounded up, because it didn’t read as quickly as previous offerings. Possibly because technically this was the first Mitch Rapp book. 

I should have the next book in hand by Thursday and already have requests in for the one after!
