Book Review: Near Dark

Finished the latest book by Brad Thor. I have read all 20 books by this author. It’s usually difficult for an author not to sound competitive with the same protagonist placed in similar situations. Brad Thor has found a way to keep it fresh. You can tell that he works to improve his writing and craft. Love the cover on this one.

In this one Scott Harvath, the main protagonist, has a contract out on his life, attracting many hitmen. Scott Harvath hasn’t faced this type of situation in the past. Brad Thor tends to surprise you with introducing new and interesting characters and shocks you with the death of longstanding characters to keep it feeling like you and the protagonist are progressing. Hats off to this latest book, Near Dark, which I really enjoyed. If you haven’t read Brad Thor and like the thriller genre, I would recommend him.
