Exit Wound Nick Stone Book 12 Andy McNab bestselling series of Nick Stone thrillers now available in the US with bonus material edition by Andy McNab Literature Fiction eBooks

Exit Wound is another lightweight chapter in the Nick Stone saga. The first-person story-telling remains brisk and interesting, but like several volumes leading up to #12, this one lacks the "edge" of the earlier books in the series.

There are few twists & turns, and anti-hero Nick Stone barely gets beaten up (as opposed to books where he seems to be a punching bag). In early books, perhaps with author McNab fresh from service, each fight had a painful reality to it: a brutal struggle to the death between people not that much stronger than each other, with only desperation and resolve leading to one winning over the other. Here, the few fights are cut and dry, quickly over with Stone the victor. Worse, there is little of the complicated tradecraft that Nick Stone usually employs, and little protracted conflict. There's not even much of Nick Stone's usual ennui about normal life.

There is a nice sense of place on-scene in Tehran, and an interesting look at Moscow, but a whole lot less than usual of running away, or being chased, through those places.

If you're reading the whole series, you still will want to pick this up-- but it's a quick, and only somewhat satisfying read. Recommended for fans.

Exit Wound Nick Stone Book 12 Andy McNab bestselling series of Nick Stone thrillers now available in the US with bonus material edition by Andy McNab Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

Too much UK slang to read well.
It just didn't capture my interest.
great read.
Readers familiar with McNab's novels know that they usually have a bittersweet ending (probably affected by McNab's own experiences behind enemy lines in the SAS). In this one, Nick Stone finishes in the money. Tradecraft and action never lets one down. This a quick and satisfying read for McNab and Stone fans.
Fast moving tale that barely achieves the willing suspension of disbelief.
Approving ground for secret weapons encroached by two angry spies? Maybe maybe not
This Nick Stone book is very good
"Revenge is a kind of wild justice." - Francis Bacon, Sr.

EXIT WOUND revs up in the United Arab Emirates with a heist of Saddam Hussein's gold and ends, after a stop-off in Tehran, in the depths of Mother Russia. It's a novel of revenge as Nick Stone is out to exact payback for the death of two ex-SAS mates killed in a double-cross.

This is the first Nick Stone thriller I've read. Ok, I've been busy. As such in the genre go, the plot stretches believability, but that doesn't make it any the less entertaining.

Author Andy McNab's background as an abandoned orphan and SAS squadie made him into a Hard Guy, a personality type that he's apparently embodied in his alter-ego hero, Nick. Essentially, I gather, Stone's approach to life, adversity, and problem-solving are the author's own were he to find himself in the fictional adventures he creates. The thing is, you see, as Stone himself says

"Crusaders for truth look great under the studio lights. But in the real world they get swatted like flies."

In McNab's books, as well as those of, say, Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Stephen Leather's "Spider" Shepherd, and (back in The Day) Adam Hall's Quiller (to name but three of my favorites), "truth" equates with victory against tribal and personal enemies and the "studio lights" are the writer's pen.

Perhaps I wax too philosophical here. Based on EXIT WOUND, the Stone series promises to be better than average escapism and I'm fairly certain I'll read more. That said, however, I cannot but recommend more highly any of the potboilers by Gerald Seymour wherein victories are Pyrrhic and invincibility is not assured - more like the real world inhabited by the rest of us mere mortals.
