About this deal

McNab's subsequent thrillers, Crisis Four, Firewall, Last Light , Liberation Day , Dark Winter , Deep Black and Aggressor have all gone on to sell equally well. The BBC's film of Bravo Two Zero, starring Sean Bean, was shown on primetime BBC 1 television in 1999 and released on DVD in 2000. When I first started reading the Andy McNab books, I found them quite hard, I'm not sure why, but they didn't flow that well.

In Northern Ireland he spent two years working as an undercover operator with 14th Intelligence Group, going on to become an instructor. and that following a shocking diagnosis his body is failing him fast, and any day now he will have to ask himself the ultimate question . This is the final novel in the long running Nick Stone series which began way back in 1998 and drew heavily on the author’s own knowledge and experience of Special Forces soldiering.

During the Gulf War he commanded Bravo Two Zero, a patrol that, in the words of his commanding officer, 'will remain in regimental history for ever'. It’s almost like he’s had a reset over the last two or three books and events from before that are irrelevant. I am a fast reader and the fact that (I think) this is my first ever 1 star review reflects how I feel I wasted 5 days struggling through this (its NO page turner. McNab is the author of seven fast action thrillers, highly acclaimed for their authenticity and all Sunday Times bestsellers.

The CD spoken word version of Bravo Two Zero, narrated by McNab, sold over 60,000 copies and earned a silver disc. I'm left wondering if AM had a book contract to fulfil as its the last in the series and this was him getting back at the publishers. And this is quite a slow and dull book too making it an effort to turn the pages and, even worse, care about the main character.From the day he was found in a carrier bag on the steps of Guy's Hospital in London, Andy McNab has led an extraordinary life. Inevitably, it soon transpires that there is more going on than initially meets the eye, and he becomes reluctantly drawn into in a potential cyber attack on the West, all the while battling his own failing health which is gradually ticking down. Andy McNab clearly wants to move on from Stone and focus on his new Shadow State series (I’ve read the first one, it’s not great) and his interest in the cyber world. Its the last in the Nick Stone series and AM has written it like that too, almost as if he couldnt be bothered to think up a decent enough plot line to pension Nick off.
