The reviewer enjoyed Spymaster, the 17th book in the Scot Harvath series, finding it easy to follow despite not having read previous installments. The action-packed narrative, with short chapters, kept the story engaging and fast-paced. The plot, while simple, was effective, and the reviewer is curious about the next book due to the cliffhanger ending.
The reviewer found Spymaster to be an enjoyable read, especially as their first book by Brad Thor. The story, which follows Scot Harvath and his team as they investigate attacks on NATO officials, was engaging and easy to follow. The short chapters and frequent scene changes maintained a sense of ongoing action, making the book a quick and exciting read. The plot was straightforward, focusing on Russia's plans to invade Sweden through terrorist cells, and Harvath's mission to stop them. The reviewer appreciated that the book could be read as a standalone, not requiring knowledge of previous books in the series. The cliffhanger ending left them curious about the next installment, and they felt this book was a good introduction to Brad Thor's work, although some reviews suggest earlier books in the series might be even better.
