Satori by Don Winslow
3.0
**I received a Satori ARC free of charge as part of a Goodreads promotion.**
I don't read many thrillers, but I am always trying to expand my tastes in genre fiction, so a free copy of Satori was too good to pass up. Having finished the book, I'll say that it was certainly good, technically speaking: well written, tightly plotted, and with an interesting historical setting to boot. I think, though, that this book just isn't for me. I tried to like it, I really did, but for some reason I just prefer steel-jawed space heroes to super sex-machine karate secret agents. Thriller fans, add one star to this review.
