Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Delta Force Major Charley Castillo returns in the third crackling adventure in Griffin's #1 New York Times-bestselling series.
The very first two novels in W. E. B. Griffin's exciting new Presidential Agent series, By Order of the President and The Hostage, immediately raced up the bestseller lists-The Hostage debuting at #1. Told in 'punchy prose that connects like a right hook' (Chicago Tribune), they were further proof that 'Griffin just keeps on getting better' (Booklist).
The Hunters picks up right where The Hostage left off. Two brutal murders and millions of missing dollars in the growing UN/Iraq oil-for-food scandal have lead Castillo and his team to an estancia in Uruguay, where, to his shock, the man they are seeking is himself murdered right before their eyes. Who is responsible? Most likely, the people higher up in the money chain, those willing to risk anything to keep their secrets from being revealed. They've left just enough of a trail, though, for Castillo to pick up the scent, and, with carte blanche from the president, to follow it wherever it takes him, he ends up . . . well, not exactly where he expected . . .
Brimming with rich characters, strong action, and cutting-edge drama, this is Griffin writing at the height of his powers.

Even if you have not read the previous books in the series, this is an excellent book. However, it would be better to read the whole the entire series. All are excellent!

This is another one of those books that gets you interested and won't let you go, personally once I started reading I couldn't put it down. The book is just good, from trying to track down very powerful political people who don't want to be found, to Charlies soft side his family. If you read the very first two in the series the hunters only gets better.

The Hunters is typical Griffin fare in an expanded format. Longer than usual but satisfying none the less. Someone should tell W.E.B that scamblers use algorithms not logarithms, but that is a minor point.

I have have enjoyed some other works by this author. This was also an interesting story line but it could have been done in half the pages. If you want a very detailed view of what top operatives might do in a day (where and what they eat, how they manage to keep their cell phones charged, what credit cards they use, etc.) then this is a must read.

I found this one of the weakest books I ever read. In a nutshell: the main hero of this book constantly travels around the world, meets lots of people, many of whom support him because they are old buddies and while traveling he works on a presidential mission. While it is a nice idea of the author to use foreign language to show off his expertise, a lot of the German language is plainly misplaced. Oops! While this is just a bit annoying there is a lot of repetition - the hero tells the story of his chase to basically everybody he meets - and the characters do not develop into more than superficial want-to-be cool action heros. I didn't find any suspension in there at all.
When I bought this book I actually also got a second Griffin novel. I hope this is better. If not, it is at least not that voluminous...
