foamy reviewed Hellbent by Gregg Andrew Hurwitz

5 stars
Awesome halfway point to this series. It's really difficult to not plow through all of them back to back, but these books are best read with some time/other books between them.

To some he was Orphan X. Others knew him as the Nowhere Man. But to Jack Johns he was a boy named Evan Smoak. Taken from an orphanage, Evan was raised inside a top-secret government programme and trained to become a lethal weapon. By Jack. And yet for all the dangerous skill he instilled in his young charge, Jack Jones cared for Evan like a son.
But Jack knew too much about a programme that had gone rotten - he was a loose end that needed to be dealt with. But if you go after the only person who ever treated him like a human being, you can guarantee that the Nowhere Man will be coming for you. Hellbent on making things right...
With Hellbent, Gregg Hurwitz raises the bar again with a masterclass in hi-octane thriller writing.
Awesome halfway point to this series. It's really difficult to not plow through all of them back to back, but these books are best read with some time/other books between them.
Not bad way to many overly precise descriptions of things, vodka, weapons. A ten line description of a sword that made me roll my eyes so hard I got a headache.
But a decent thriller a little predictable but good enough to continue the series.
