One Of The More Inventive Kill Shots I've Seen. It was the final fight, killing the final bad guy, so I can't really go into details here because spoilers, but man, that one was fun. As to the rest of the tale, I don't get all the hate on Goodreads for this book. I've read a lot of books across a lot of genres, and I've never seen anything quite like this one. Hell, the only thing that confused me about it is because I thought (from months old memories) that according to the description, I was jumping into a woman waking up on a cargo ship under attack with no memory of who she was or how she got there, but that turned out to be exactly the kind of badass that can - and does - save the day. Instead, while we still got the badass that can and does save the day, we also got a much more nuanced bad ass, with a lot of elements here - hello, sudden lesbian shower sex scene, child kidnapping, stay-at-home-dad, and assassin-with-kids, among others - not usually seen in these types of action tales. The setting, once the book got outside the US around the quarter or so mark, was mostly “Third World Sh*thole” ala most any Far Cry video game, and it actually worked quite well. I for one am very much looking forward to seeing where this series goes, and I'll be starting Book 2 soon (as an ARC). Very much recommended.
