Cut to years later, I've been in the mood for military type thrillers and while perusing the local store I see Manhunter by Chris Ryan, a name I had all but forgotten. The blurb immediately interested me; a special forces regiment dedicated to taking out organized crime. I love true crime and crime fiction, plus my hankering for military thrillers seemed like a perfect match. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed. I've read the kind of "airport thrillers" people would compare Ryan to before, and this seems pretty subpar even by that standard.
