Allah's Scorpion (2006) - Plot & Excerpts

A sort of genre and style I essentially like....but oh please... to have a woman make a fool of herself because she has fallen in love wtih the lead character after about a minute.... this author seems to have a pretty piss poor concept of realistic character development. It rminded me of a plot strategy since he wasn't creative enough to come up with a better way to get the woman in the same area as the lead expect to have her follow him out of obsessive love.Under the cover of a moonless night, al-Qaida operatives made their way inside the infamous Camp Delta prison on the American base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Their goal was to free five prisoners, but they failed. The rescuers and prisoners, all former Iranian Navy submarine crewmen, were killed. Investigators discover that this mission was supposed to be the first step in unleashing a deadly act of terrorisman operation code-named Allahs Scorpion. The CIA and Kirk McGarvey are called in, but first McGarvey must stop the destruction of the Panama Canal by a Venezuelan oil tanker rigged to explode in one of the locks. What seems at first to be an unrelated attack turns up the same cryptic code name. Allahs Scorpion may prove to be the ultimate strike against America, a grand finale to what began on 9/11. A pair of Russian nuclear missiles that were spirited into Libya just before the invasion of Iraq have turned up in transit to a undisclosed launch site in the Atlantic Ocean. Kirk McGarvey is the only man in position to stop themthe only man capable of knocking out Allahs Scorpion. [close:]

I found that the plot of the story in Allah’s Scorpion was immensely pleasing. First, I loved how the author took all these seemingly unrelated events together to create the final masterplan that Kirk Mcgarvey has to stop. I especially how most of the battles happened in the headquarters of both sides(CIA, and Al Qaeda), by the thinkers. This accurately portrays what the main purpose of intelligence agencies is to do, find and use intelligence. From a purely storyline point of view, the book is wonderful. Unfortunately, the book was rather shallow with no really deep, or hidden message that you usually find in books. Out of 10, I would give this book a 7-8.
