    On a warm October day, Jessie Burlingame lies in the bedroom of her secluded lake home, listening to the far-off sounds of the country; the cry of a loon, the growl of a chain saw, the bark of a lonesome dog. Nearer, she hears the banging of the screen door, left unlatched in the autumn breeze; nearer still, the click of the key locking the second pair of handcuffs that chain her to the bed.

    Story

    I can see King's intent in this book. A character's merciless self analysis in the midst of a difficult situation. Unfortunately I find myself not caring about the main character at all. That said the prose and self reflection were clever enough to keep me listening for 2 for this book's 15 hours. At that point it just became tiresome.

    Accountant turned professional monster hunter, Owen Zastava Pitt, managed to stop the nefarious Old Ones' invasion plans last year, but as a result made an enemy out of one of the most powerful beings in the universe. Now an evil death cult known as the Church of the Temporary Mortal Condition wants to capture Owen in order to gain the favor of the great Old Ones.

    If you could sum up Monster Hunter Vendetta in three words, what would they be?

    Gratuitously violent/hilarious


    What did you like best about this story?

    It was surprisingly compelling for what amounts to a B monster movie in book form.

    Act of Valor takes audiences deep into the secretive world of the most elite, highly trained group of warriors in the modern world. When the rescue of a kidnapped CIA operative leads to the discovery of a deadly terrorist plot against the U.S., a team of SEALs is dispatched on a worldwide manhunt. As the valiant men of Bandito Platoon race to stop a coordinated attack that could kill and wound thousands of American civilians, they must balance their commitment to country, team and their families back home.

    What made the experience of listening to Tom Clancy Presents: Act of Valor the most enjoyable?

    This isn't the best book you'll ever read. It's the equivalent of a good action movie with a decent action movie story; entertaining, explosive and sometimes a little moving.
