First things first, I knew what I was going to get from this book before I started it because I've become used to this series. So, it was a good read and met my expectations. It felt nice to meet some of my favorite characters, whom I have loved for over a decade now.
I always enjoy the action sequences in the Sigma Force series and they were awesome here too.
I absolutely loved the descriptions of the city of Tallinn (especially it's Library) and the Salt mines in Krakow. Mr. Rollins always manages to make me want to visit the places he so wonderfully describes in his books.
But the book also dragged at a lot of places and I skimmed quite a few pages. I was not disappointed, but I hope that one of these days, my expectations will be exceeded too.
The same as the rest of the series; maybe getting a little repetitive and overwrought within this one book
I always love a Sigma Force novel. I got a little bogged down by the science in this one and felt it moved a little slower than other Sigma Force novels, but I still enjoyed it!
