Kindle White jade cargill This is exciting and a strong start to this series Wonderful range of locations adventures and dangerous obstacles to overcome Jan Alexander Other than bad memories of Afghanistan former Recon Marine Nicholas Carter thought he d left combat behind when he joined an elite counter terrorism unit called the Project After all Washington isn t much like Kabul But when a two thousand year old book about the First Chinese Emperor and the secret of immortality goes missing he s right back in the thick of it. White jade dragon book benefit is when a thriller not only excites but it educates White Jade is just such a thriller Alex Lukeman drawing on a facinating background has written a truly enjoyable thriller that also leaves the reader with much facinating information about various cultures both current and ancient This makes for a very rewarding reading experience. Book white death In creating the character of former Recon Marine Nicholas Carter Mr Lukeman has managed to introduce a complex and engaging new figure in the world of thrillers and one is delighted to know that White Jade is the first in a planned series Carter is a character who is very accessible to the reader one who is so finely drawn a personality that he virtually pops off the pages This is always the sign of a great writer and as this is Alex Lukeman s first book I feel comfortable in proclaiming that a major new talent in fiction has arrived The plot involves a Centuries old Chinese Book a dynamic and wiz at martial arts supporting character named Selena and Nicholas struggle to accept his past and embark on a complex adventure that will require all the skills he has learned as a warrior in Afganistan and they are plenty while dealing with the very human emotional toll his past battles have scarred him with The aim of those up against Carter and Selena is nothing less than the secret of immortalityand they are quite willing to kill for it The reader is transported from DC and California to the magical and hidden enclaves of Tibet and along with page turning thrills historical facts and details are so deftly interweaved as to created of an amazing experience as opposed to simply reading a novel White Jade is 1 in Mr Lukeman s PROJECT Series and 2 will have a very hard act to follow but given Mr Lukeman s exceptional writing skills there is little doubt that lovers of well written and intelligent thrillers have little to worry about A JAMES MASON COMMUNITY BOOK CLUB MUST READRICK FRIEDMANFOUNDERTHE JAMES MASON COMMUNITY BOOK CLUB Jan Alexander This was a blast Covert ops Chinese bad guys and loads of action and fun Very engaging characters with a great storyline Well worth the read Jan Alexander I loved it I do have to say it almost lost its 4 star rating because Chris was so stupid but she found some of her brain cells before the end so I forgave her It was not hard to guess most of what was really going on but somehow the book still managed to be a nailbiter The insta love was just as laughable as usual but it s much easier to overlook when you re caught up in the rest of the story Jan Alexander

I really enjoyed this book Alex Lukeman developed these characters so well I feel like I knew them or at least I would cross the street to avoid them I really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to Book 2I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway Jan Alexander First book in a 14 book series The story line was ok but as it was the first book I felt it was setting up the pace for the next ones and introducing the characters I will continue on with the series as I enjoyed it Jan Alexander I m going to go ahead and say it Once I read the summary on the back of the book I knew I wasn t going to like it Here is the reason why the main characters name is Nick Carter As we all know or maybe not Nick Carter is a member of the Backstreet Boys This may not be a problem for some but every time his name was said it was hard to imagine him as a hard core former marine that now worked on a secret government assignment called the PROJECT That being said I read the book I changed his name to Rick as I read and the storyline ended up being really good It s a typical thriller book that involves traitors espionage travel to foreign countries gun fights and oh yeah sex You don t learn as much about the characters as you hope but since this is a series I assume you will learn and with each book Nick 3 stars Google your main characters name before you publish Rick 4 stars In compliance with FTC guidelines I received the book for free through Goodreads First Reads Jan Alexander Meine Meinung Das Buch eignet sich hervorragen f r den Urlaub denn es ist leichte Lekt re bei der man nicht nachdenken muss Au erdem verr t der Klappentext schon mindestens 50% der Handlung also gibt es auch wenige berraschungen und man kann nebenbei das H rbuch h ren Ich verrate nicht zuviel wenn ich euch erz hle dass es eine Jagd quer ber den Globus gibt um Amerika zu retten Die Charaktere sind h bsche Klischees und bieten keinen Platz f r Spannung Da reicht schon die Lekt re des Klappentextes um zu wissen was abgeht Das Buch an sich ist spannend aber die Kr nung ist Michael Schrodt Ich habe selten einen Sprecher erlebt der ein Buch so kaputt liest Als M rchenonkel ist er super geeignet aber als Sprecher f r ein spannendes Buch definitiv zu emotionslos Eine Verfolgungsjagd h rt sich bei ihm wie eine Bedienungsanleitung f r einen Staubsauger Einfach nur zum Einschlafen Nicht zu vergessen dass auch die Aufnahmeleitung des H rbuchs nicht aufgepasst hat Im Prolog liest Schrodt den Namen Selena man ihn schreibt So weit so gut Anschlie end liest der den Namen Seliena sprecht es mal laut aus Und warum wurde diese Diskrepanz nicht ausgebessert Der Autor wechselt seinen Schreibstil angenehm zwischen ausschweifenden Beschreibungen und kurz knackigen Action Szenen Da wurden meine Gedanken wenn sie zu sehr bei den Beschreibungen abschweiften durch die Passagen in denen k rzere S tze formuliert waren wieder auf das H rbuch gelenkt und ich war erneut voll dabei. White jade dog Nach reiflicher berlegung gibt es 3 Jade Sterne und ich wei dass ich nie wieder ein H rbuch mit Schrodt als Sprecher h ren werde Es sei denn es handelt sich um Gute Nacht Geschichten Klappentext Vor dem Hintergrund eines internationalen Machtspiels spannt PROJECT WEISSER JADE ein Netz aus T uschung und Mord um den Globus. White Jade mystery tackle Nick Carter ehemaliger Aufkl rungs Marine dessen Vergangenheit ihm unz hlige k rperliche und seelische Narben bescherte arbeitet f r das PROJECT eine geheime Einheit zur Bek mpfung des Terrorismus die direkt dem Pr sidenten unterstellt ist Selena Connor eine gutaussehende starke und f hige Sprachwissenschaftlerin findet sich pl tzlich inmitten seiner gef hrlichen und gnadenlosen Welt wieder als ihr wohlhabender Onkel von jemandem auf grausame Weise ermordet wird der auf der Suche nach einem altert mlichen Buch ber das Elixier der Unsterblichkeit ist. White Jade kindle reader Nick wird beauftragt Selena zu besch tzen und ihr bei der Wiederbeschaffung des verschwundenen Textes zu helfen Es ist der Beginn eines Abenteuers auf Leben und Tod das von San Francisco bis nach Peking und von Washington bis in die geheimen Kammern in Tibet reicht Jemand m chte in China die Macht an sich rei en und plant einen Angriff auf Amerika und Nick und Selena stehen dabei mitten in der Schusslinie Jan Alexander Very good When is book 2 coming out Jan Alexander Young Christmas Channing returns to Jeff because he tells her that his life s in danger that he s being poisoned with arsenic by his wife But when she arrives at Morgan House she doesn t find what she expects only David the strange secretive brother in law Mary Jeff s cunning crafty spouse and Jeff himself the handsome but vastly changed young man whom she d once loved but does not now understand Chris is lost confused and swept into a powerful undertow of danger panic and past love Is Jeff really dying And just what exactly is going on at Morgan House It almost seems that the only stop for her now isdeath A wonderfully thrilling and very readable romantic suspense novel White JadeWhite JadePseudonym for site_link Victor J Banis Also wrote under the name site_link Lynn Benedict Pseudonym for site_link Victor J Banis Also wrote under the name site_link Lynn Benedict site_link.
