Termination Orders (Dan Morgan, #1) By Leo J. Maloney
Termination Orders book
But he ll make an exception this time to go back into the field to find out what happened to Cougar First few chapters were a little slow as the author is setting the story up and there are a couple of parts that don t quite mesh these had been noted by other reviewers so I was on the lookout for them but they are minor blips in the storyline The middle part picks up steam as we learn about Dan s training in the CIA and his relationship to the good guys and the bad guys and his background with a very bad girl Natasha but she wasn t always bad and the last part keeps you turning the pages to find out what happens next All in all.

Unoriginal characters and a banal plot It s clearly nothing than a power fantasy for out of shape suburban dads than it is an actual story Skip it Leo J Maloney This novel had some potential but ultimately missed the mark on too many occasions It made no sense for the author to wait 33 chapters to provide the background for the lead character and how he was recruited by the CIA In the following chapter he outlines the history between Morgan and Natasha which also should have been done much earlier Overall the characters were not that believable and the daring escapes were straight out of Hollywood Finally the author was using chess terms to describe the game of checkers and a mistake like that should have been caught Leo J Maloney Fast paced but heavy on the self righteous ideology Leo J Maloney 3.

Book Termination orders placed While Leo J Maloney was serving in the army in 1966 he was recruited by a United States government clandestine agency and received highly specialized Black Ops training Among his assignments in the decades that followed were asset extraction espionage and numerous missions still too secret to divulge Now retired he lives in the Boston area Termination Orders Dan Morgan 1 Tedious and boring with flat action and pace The story itself was far fetched but fun If you like military thrillers you ll probably enjoy this book Leo J Maloney This review originally appeared on my book review blog Feeding My Book Addiction copy provided by the authorI admit that I was apprehensive about a mystery suspense thriller that was only 249 pages Most of the books I read in these genres are upwards of 400 pages or because the author needs the length to work out the subplots plot twists and have a few fake endings before the book comes to a conclusion It turns out that my apprehension was a bit unwarranted as former Black Ops contractor turned author Leo Maloney did quite a job packing as much action espionage and intrigue into the pages of this book The reason why Termination Orders Code Name Cobra is able to wrap up in 249 pages is that the storyline is action driven rather than character driven Characters are developed enough that we see believe and understand their motivations but they are not developed enough for any of them to become a favorite character or for hero Dan Morgan to lead another book if the author has any intentions of making this into a series Typically I prefer books with developed characters I want to see how people live through survive and change because of the events in the book but this lack of development or change in the characters didn t bother me because I was too caught up in the action For what this book lacked in character development it definitely made up for in action The fast pacing of the story and the constant developments and plot twists kept me up until one o clock in the morning so I could finish this book I devoured it in just a few hours Because the emphasis was on the action than the characters it wasn t so easy to figure out how the book would end I enjoyed not knowing all along who did it and why until the last few pages. Kindle Termination orderstream Author Leo Maloney is a former Black Ops contractor and this book is loosely based on his experiences Knowing that fact before beginning this novel I took the experiences of Dan Morgan code name Cobra and his long time partner Paul Conley code name Cougar without too many questions Maloney lived this life He definitely knows a lot about government espionage and risking his life for his country than I do If this book was written by someone without the experience I d have a lot questions regarding their research and if the book was realistic Overall I really liked this book It kept me engaged and entertained from start to finish The book tackled a heavy topic in a way that didn t weigh me down as a reader so I could take the story for what it was glean a little bit of insight into secretive government operations and have strange covert mission like dreams that night It s always fun to see what you read manifest itself in your dreams right If you are looking for a quick mystery suspense thriller to get your hands on maybe for a flight or train ride or a lazy summer afternoon this book might be just what you are looking for Leo J Maloney
