Awesome！ This book is action packed with an interesting story， but it is the deeper questions in the book that makes it really stand out。 This is a very good and thoughtful thriller！ I will also recommend listening to the authors podcast。 There you will find good thoughts about transitioning in life and how to face life。

Jack Carr’s newest installment of the James Reece series is amazing。 The action is accurate and top notch because of Jack Carr’s experience。 The story is on point ，maybe the best yet， and is so immersive。 I found myself on the edge of my seat a lot。 I had to wake up at 0400 and go to bed late just so that I would be able to sleep and do things during the day without being distracted about what would happen next。 There were so many times where I would ask my self "Did that just happen？" then read Jack Carr’s newest installment of the James Reece series is amazing。 The action is accurate and top notch because of Jack Carr’s experience。 The story is on point ，maybe the best yet， and is so immersive。 I found myself on the edge of my seat a lot。 I had to wake up at 0400 and go to bed late just so that I would be able to sleep and do things during the day without being distracted about what would happen next。 There were so many times where I would ask my self "Did that just happen？" then read the page all over again。 In The Blood gets five whole American stars。 Whenever Jack Carr has a new bad reviews episode I will imagine the review going like this: "There was too much action in this book。 Every page is filled with James Reece doing the Lord’s work。 The story was to deep and immersive。 I could never get anything done because all I thought about was James Reece。 In The Blood had three books worth of story and action。 Why can’t Carr just hold back and have some moderation？ The story is fully complete and leaves you at a cliff hanger at the same time。 I would give it a half star if I could so I guess I will have to settle for one star。" 。。。more

Let me start by saying "Thank you Goodreads for sending me the advance copy！ I failed you in the past by receiving an advance copy and not reading it for two years， which completely obliterates the point of sending me the advance copy to begin with。 So thank you for giving me another shot！"I've read all of Clancy's Jack Ryan/Jr。 I've read all of Thor's Harvath series， some of Flynn's Mitch Rapp， all of Lee Child's Jack Reacher （another genre of sorts， I know）， all of Brad Taylor's Pike Logan ser Let me start by saying "Thank you Goodreads for sending me the advance copy！ I failed you in the past by receiving an advance copy and not reading it for two years， which completely obliterates the point of sending me the advance copy to begin with。 So thank you for giving me another shot！"I've read all of Clancy's Jack Ryan/Jr。 I've read all of Thor's Harvath series， some of Flynn's Mitch Rapp， all of Lee Child's Jack Reacher （another genre of sorts， I know）， all of Brad Taylor's Pike Logan series， and bits and pieces of many other similar books by other popular authors， and I can tell you this。。。Carr deserves to be in the conversation for the top of the list in the counter-terrorism genre。 He writes similar to Mark Greaney， with the details and the aspects that are clearly from real experiences， but has the quick pace of a Flynn or Thor。 Now， to the James Reece story， and book #5。。。 "In the Blood" is about Mr。 Reece trying to close out a cruel chapter in his life。 He gets an opportunity to find out about technology （which I'm still TBD on whether I believe any of this is even remotely true， but I have no idea， so I don't care and just will say that I think a portion of it is） that our country has that he can exploit to do America's bidding， so to speak。 In this particular instance， it is to find a killer from a previous story and put an end to him。Reece thinks this will end this chapter in his life and allow him to walk free into the mountain ranges of Montana with his girlfriend， Katie， and just start living life instead of taking it。 I don't want to spoil it for anyone， but the plot is put together quite well and the ending makes you mad that the next story isn't coming out for another year。Carr， keep it up！ These stories are amazing and I truly enjoy being a reader of them。 I love how， so far at least， they're all chained together so well and one picks up right where the last stopped。If you're on the fence about this series， I sincerely think you should start with The Terminal List and read the whole thing， ESPECIALLY if you're into this genre。 。。。more

Ok full disclosure I won this book in a goodreads giveaway， which was good AND bad。 The bad is somewhat silly in that when I am having a poor stretch of dogshit books I like to have one of Carr's books in reserve because they always KICK ASS。 The good is I got to read two Carr books in a couple week stretch。 This book is a continuation of the James Reece series/saga and it does not disappoint。 From the opening action set piece involving the downing of a civilian aircraft to kill one person， to t Ok full disclosure I won this book in a goodreads giveaway， which was good AND bad。 The bad is somewhat silly in that when I am having a poor stretch of dogshit books I like to have one of Carr's books in reserve because they always KICK ASS。 The good is I got to read two Carr books in a couple week stretch。 This book is a continuation of the James Reece series/saga and it does not disappoint。 From the opening action set piece involving the downing of a civilian aircraft to kill one person， to the climax this book grabs you by the throat and does not let go。 The action in this book is relentless as Reece tracks a sniper he has vowed to kill for assassinating a close friend。 Unbeknownst to Reece dark forces （are there any other kind？！） are at work to kill Reece and keep old secrets buried。 During the course of hunting down this sniper Reece encounters an all powerful quantum computer by the name of Alice。 This is a very intriguing parallel story line。 At once fascinating and deeply disturbing since Alice has the ability to use any modern technological device from a refrigerator to a car computer to not only track someone but also listen in on their conversations。 Because Alice is a quantum computer no amount of data is an impediment。 As usual the reader follows Reece on his manhunt around the globe from Africa to various parts of Europe。 Along the way once again Carr does a masterful job of selecting unique weapons for Reece to utilize and he describes them perfectly throughout the book。 As a certified "gun guy" this aspect of Carr's writing is refreshing because he does not screw it up and knows what he is writing about。 Also， the reader can expect more mayhem committed by the blade， which is a totally bad ass Carr writing element。 This book is my favorite in the series。 Carr's writing is vivid and his set pieces are 100% certified BAD ASS。 Grab a copy， pick a beverage， recline your seat and get ready to take a wild ride into the take no prisoners world of James Reece。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 Vengeance， revenge， and retribution were words that came to mind as I read Jack Carr’s latest thriller， In the Blood。 James Reece， former SEAL and sniper， has built up a major level of rage against the killer of his best friend Freddy Strain during an earlier military operation。 Flash forward to an Israeli Mossad agent aboard a commercial jet plane hit by missiles while departing Burkina Faso in Africa。 She had previously saved Reece’s life while both were assigned to the U。S。 military in Iraq。 Vengeance， revenge， and retribution were words that came to mind as I read Jack Carr’s latest thriller， In the Blood。 James Reece， former SEAL and sniper， has built up a major level of rage against the killer of his best friend Freddy Strain during an earlier military operation。 Flash forward to an Israeli Mossad agent aboard a commercial jet plane hit by missiles while departing Burkina Faso in Africa。 She had previously saved Reece’s life while both were assigned to the U。S。 military in Iraq。 Hearing the devastating news， Reece jets off from his ranch in Montana to Washington DC to meet with his CIA boss to receive approval to chase down the sniper and terrorist bomber who intelligence sources have visual evidence is the same person。The action never lets up; even in the Epilogue。 The trail of bodies， friend and foe， is long， high， and bloody。 But single-minded Reece follows clue after clue across Africa and Europe to a showdown of snipers in the mountains of Montenegro。 The extended showdown reminds me of an early Stephen Hunter novel where James Lee Swagger and his nemesis face off in a duel of master snipers。 Exciting through to the last shot and gasp of breath。All throughout the book Reece is perplexed at the attempts on his life and cannot find a reason for them。 Until the dying declaration of one assassin that Russia hired him and others to track him down and eliminate him as Reece’s CIA father hid a Cold War letter that will cause political chaos in the Kremlin—or that’s what they think。 The book ends before we find out。 Reece’s new friend， “Alice，” sees to his well being when he is in life or death situations and is a welcome backup at critical times。 The book is a must read for thriller fans and leaves readers already excited about the next book based on the cliffhanger ending。。 。。。more

I received an ARC of Jack Carr’s “In The Blood”。 James Reece is on a mission to find out who is behind the downing of an airplane containing 120+ passengers along with a Mossad operative connected to him when he was in Iraq。 5 / 5 stars。 Reece’s thrilling story continues around the world with gritty and intense action。 A must read for those who loved The Terminal List series。

I received an early release copy of In The Blood from Goodreads and it was a seriously intense story cover to cover。 Jack Carr has created an excellent saga of James Reece that continues to keep you on your toes and leave you wanting more。

As a winner of the goodreads advanced copy give away， I feel obligated to write this review。 So from a normal guy who doesn’t write many reviews here goes: This might be my second favorite entry of the Terminal List series。 For reference， “Savage Son” is the best， in my opinion。 However， by the author’s own admission， “Savage Son” is also the story he has wanted to write since he was a young adult， so it should come as no surprise it is the strongest in the series （again， at least in my opinion） As a winner of the goodreads advanced copy give away， I feel obligated to write this review。 So from a normal guy who doesn’t write many reviews here goes: This might be my second favorite entry of the Terminal List series。 For reference， “Savage Son” is the best， in my opinion。 However， by the author’s own admission， “Savage Son” is also the story he has wanted to write since he was a young adult， so it should come as no surprise it is the strongest in the series （again， at least in my opinion）。 Book five cuts much of the heavy handed political statements present in “The Devil’s Hand”， although the overtones and sentiments are still very much present， as one would （and should） expect in a political military action thriller written by a former Navy SEAL。 However， it’s much less “in your face” than it was in book four。 Instead， the narrative returns to being heavily focused on the action and the storytelling。 While it does get a little complicated as characters try to outwit each other， it is also a welcome return， and this installment provides a little bit of a deeper dive into the spy side of James Reece’s world。 As with the previous entries in the series， the information in the book appears to be very well researched by Jack Carr， with many of the events feeling fairly plausible and mostly grounded in reality。 Well， all but one thing， but there will be no big spoilers here （other than this “thing” involves cyber security and quantum engineering and almost feels too sci-fi in nature and not at all at home in the Terminal List universe）。 But then again， maybe Jack Carr knows something I don’t， as the White House has just pledged a budget increase for both cyber security and quantum engineering （as of May 2022）。 The description of the action scenes is， as always， extremely detailed and paints a beautiful and complete picture in your mind as you read， and of course Carr “nerds out” on many of his vehicle and gear descriptions， which although appreciated by myself， might as well be written in another language if you don’t know what he is talking about。 Overall， the story delivers for anyone who is a fan of the series or the genre in general， and appears to wrap up the James Reece storyline…until it doesn’t…（this is a series after all）。 I loved it and as I stated this might be my second favorite book in the series。 4。5/5， would definitely recommend。*From myself: Book 5 of Terminal List series follows protagonist James Reece as he tracks a world class sniper， in an attempt to avenge the death of his best friend and former SEAL teammate。 But the sniper is a hunter as well， and has his own plans for Reece。 Their attempts to outsmart each other take them around the world as they draw ever closer to one another。 Along the way， Reece will use every contact and resource he has to track his enemy and try to stay one step ahead of a foe who is doing the same。 *From the publisher: “A woman boards a plane in the African country of Burkina Faso having just completed a targeted assassination for the state of Israel。 Two minutes later， her plane is blown out of the sky。Over six thousand miles away， former Navy SEAL James Reece watches the names and pictures of the victims on cable news。 One face triggers a distant memory of a Mossad operative attached to the CIA years earlier in Iraq- a woman with ties to the intelligence services of two nations。。。 a woman Reece thought he would never see again。As Reece tracks down her killer， he may be walking into a deadly trap。。。。Ripped from world events， the twists and turns of In the Blood confirm that “James Reece is one rowdy mother****er" （Chris Pratt， star of The Terminal List， coming to Amazon Prime）。” 。。。more

Lucky enough to win an ARC from Goodreads。 Have enjoyed these books since Carr's perfect debut， The Terminal List。 I have thought that the series kind of went down a little since then though this one is better then the last。 The story is of James Reece still going after the sniper that took out his friend。 Only that sniper has contracts on Reece so he is luring Reece in for a showdown。 That is if someone else doesnt get him first。 Seems a lot of people want Reece dead， though he seems hard to ki Lucky enough to win an ARC from Goodreads。 Have enjoyed these books since Carr's perfect debut， The Terminal List。 I have thought that the series kind of went down a little since then though this one is better then the last。 The story is of James Reece still going after the sniper that took out his friend。 Only that sniper has contracts on Reece so he is luring Reece in for a showdown。 That is if someone else doesnt get him first。 Seems a lot of people want Reece dead， though he seems hard to kill。The action scenes are well written and the Reece character is great。 However there are info dumps that hurt the overall flow of the narrarive。 Those along with the ever growing list of product placements that are awkwardly thrown in just makes me cringe for some reason。 However those are minor complaints and do little to alter my view that this is a well written thriller。Highly recommended and looking forward to next year for book 6。 。。。more
