Separation of Power Mitch Rapp Novels Vince Flynn 9780671047344 Books

By chapter 18, about 200 pages in, I was ready to fling this book out the window. None of what grabbed my interest and pumped my adrenaline from about the first paragraphs of the first 4 books had shown up, and Mitch's girlfriend was making my teeth itch from boredom and irritation. And then ... it started to get interesting. And then more interesting. And then exciting. And then it turned into the total adrenaline rush I'd been waiting for. But I'm still removing 2 possible stars - 1 for each hundred boring, disappointing pages.

Separation of Power Mitch Rapp Novels Vince Flynn 9780671047344 Books Reviews

I'm a huge Vince Flynn fan, have read all his books and am now getting them on audio CD. Very sorry he passed away in 2013, a major loss for other fans of the genre. He's right there with Stephen Hunter, Scott McEwen and Jack Coughlin in my opinion. His novels are well written, relevant and current in events and politics. He says in words what I and others, I'm certain, are thinking and feeling concerning the government in general and the Congress in particular. Though fiction, the incidences portrayed strike at the heart of what's happening worldwide as it pertains to us. I eagerly await The Survivor, his last. He will be missed.
Vince Flynn is an imaginative and prolific writer who exhibits a true genius for research. His knowledge of the inner-workings of our government and its weak-points is impressive. Equally impressive is his ability, willingness, and courage to "tell it like it is".

In his series of Mitch Rapp novels, Vince Flynn grabs your attention and his face-paced story-telling style holds it in a vice-like grip. I found myself unable to put any of his novels down once I started them. Considering the fact that most of these novels run somewhere between 500 and 700 pages, this is no small feat for any author.

I have read every one of the Mitch Rapp novels and believe me when I say that there is not a bad apple on that tree. Each of these novels may be read as a stand-alone but you may find yourself with a better grasp of the overall flow of characters and events if you read them in proper sequence. By the way, the proper reading sequence cannot be determined by publication date alone as a couple of the Mitch Rapp novels were written (more or less) as prequels. I recommend that you read these novels in the following sequence

(1) "American Assassin"
(2) "Kill Shot"
(3) "Transfer of Power"
(4) "The Third Option"
(5) "Separation of Power"
(6) "Executive Power"
(7) "Memorial Day"
(8) "Consent to Kill"
(9) "Act of Treason"
(10) "Protect and Defend"
(11) "Extreme Measures"
(12) "Pursuit of Honor"

There is another novel ("The Survivor") in the Mitch Rapp series scheduled to begin shipping in hardback around October 8, 2013 by Simon & Schuster and it can be pre-purchased via .
Holy cow, this was a rough book to get through. I've become accustomed and addicted to Vince Flynn's style and stories, but this one was --well, not good at all. Towards the end of the book, it picks up the pace but until then, it's slow and Flynn seems to try and delve into the romance genre, and not too successfully.

I had no real opinion about Rielly in TRANSFER OF POWER, but got to really disliking her and truthfully, not wanting to read about her or even Rapp thinking about her. The relationship doesn't add anything to this storyline for me.

I hoped that Flynn would end the story with them breaking up, but I was wrong. I would have rooted for Donnatella except even that relationship and conversation was awkward and uncomfortable.

Thankfully, the books that followed this one are all great again thus far! I'm on Consent to Kill now (book 7) and am enjoying of.
This is another superlative effort by the late Vince Flynn. Although each of these Mitch Rapp series novels purports to stand on their own (and to an extent they do), the reader really misses a vital flow and continuity by not experiencing them from the beginning. This, his forth novel and third in the Rapp series (although later he would re-number the storyline following his 2010 book American Assassin) picks up right where the previous, The Third Option, left off. Our hero, nearly killed in an Op in Germany, is now angry and determined to find out who sold him out. Back in the U.S., he is among his C.I.A. sponsors (the soon to be nominated new head of the Agency Dr. Irene Kennedy…this following the death of her and Mitch’s mentor, the previous head, Thomas Stansfield) to get as much intel as he can while also contemplating a life outside the agency with his true love Anna Reilly, the news reporter whom he’d saved in the previous episode when the White House was under siege by terrorists.

So as Rapp tries to determine where the leak has come from, another disturbing national emergency emerges…it seems that the Israeli Intelligence Group Mossad has uncovered the location of Saddam Hussein’s secret construction of nuclear weapons (this work was published in 2001, pre 9/11 and prior to the hunt, capture and execution of the Iraqi madman in 2006), directly under a hospital in Baghdad where the largest amount of collateral damage would ensue should the U.S. choose to strike.

With multiple and highly intriguing storylines that follow, it becomes amazing to the reader how Flynn balances each plotline the Iraqi problem does in fact eventually converge with the plot to kill Mitch and of course Anna Reilly plays an important part, which adds another tone to the overall context of the story. The big thing that continues to impress me with Flynn’s novels is his ability to saturate the work with an amazingly high level of technical expertise that he’s clearly garnered from various sources while still making it fiendishly readable. I recall seeing Vince on a “Morning Joe” interview once for one of his later books and one of the commentators remarking that his books were “like crack cocaine!”

Whether it’s a criticism or not, the reader should be aware that this book ends very abruptly…all loose ends get tidied up efficiently which, of course, is the exact point of these series novels. This ending simply sets you up for the next work in the series, Executive Power, 2003, which I feel very challenged to engage upon completing this. My hesitation, of course, is that the next book will end just like this and It’ll put me on an unending course that won't end until I complete them all!

On a completely side note, I also realize what a tremendous loss the literary community suffered in 2013 with Vince’s passing. And with respect to Kyle Mills continuation of the Mitch Rapp series using Vince Flynn’s name, I was initially aghast that anyone would slander Vince or the Rapp character…my feeling, though, is that although I currently have no intention of reading anyone who would shamelessly exploit this brilliant author’s name, upon further review and as a proviso, when I near completion of the Vince series, I (who understands myself far too well) may very well find myself hopelessly addicted to Mitch's final outcome and I may very well fall into a shameful self-shallowness and pick up these objectifying efforts…all with tremendous guilt of course.

We shall see...in the meantime, though, I'm fairly satisfied that I've recognized the problem and I hope to rectify it one way or another before I confront the issue and have to face it again with the very same authorial exploiters of Tom Clancy's legacy. As for the actual Vince Flynn catalogue, I find them completely enjoyable and look forward to the next in the series.
