Book Review of Separation of Power (Mitch Rapp, Bk 3)

Separation of Power (Mitch Rapp, Bk 3)
DorianaGray avatar reviewed on


I loved Flynn's 2 other books I read prior to this one. But, this book just dragged and his "relationship" with Anna is ridiculous. She's a petty, self-centered, annoying, whiny woman-child. He's a tough as nails Assassin. Except when he's with her. She reduces him to mush. He rescued her from a terrorist, so it's not like she doesn't know what he does for a living. But, she's a reporter, so she has to know everything. Even when a woman has been shot and National Security is involved, she's yelling at him that he was late and breaks up with him! ! Then she's crying/angry that he didn't leave her a note! He's crying and trying to do his job, which in the last 20 pages, he finally does. Then the idiot actually proposes to her. Ugh. I think I threw up a little in my mouth. I don't read political thrillers for mush.

I think I'm done with Vince Flynn novels not just because of the mush factor, but because of his huge Republican bent. Everything that goes wrong is the fault of the Democrats. It's really sickening how he inserts his political views into this book. Even if I wasn't disgusted by Mitch and Anna getting married, I'd be done with these books.
