Although this was a great book, i found it somewhat less exciting than War Hawk from this series. I listened to this via Audiobook which might’ve made it more difficult to follow but it was still a well-edited story.

I mostly enjoyed this book. It had lots of action without the obligatory, pointless romance. The bits from the dog's POV were unnecessary and felt a bit silly for this type of book though.

The Kill Switch is a fast-paced adventure thriller featuring a good action hero with his canine partner. The science of the story is intriguing. This is a low 4 star book in my rating world but an excellent read for fans of Clive Cussler types of books.

Fun crime drama. I am not dying to read another with these characters, but it was a fun story. It lasted a little long for me - too many "shocking" events in one story...

A spin-off from Rollins' SIGMA books. Tucker Wayne is square-jawed and on a mission to save the world, like every hero in these man-smut books. However, Tucker's different and interesting in 2 ways: 1) he suffers from combat PTSD, thereby making him a little vulnerable and truly discomfitted when he kills someone, and 2) he has this great dog Kane with him on all of his adventures. This story featured not one, but two deadly (and beautiful, of course) female assassins, a brilliant but clueless scientist, a band of salt-of-the-earth South African brothers, and a horrific killing will-end-the-world-as-we-know-it ------- (wait for it...!) -------- plant. More fun than a barrel of monkeys.

I love reading about Tucker and Kane. I am looking forward to reading their future stories.

Very good book, lots of interesting twists and turns. The incorporation of the dog’s point of view was a refreshing and good addition to the story.

Good read from my library. Good enough that I bought the next book in the series because my library didn't have it.
