Review of Devil Among Us
The Americans and the Jews are under the sinister plan of the Islamic terrorists. Much American blood has been spilled over the years, especially during the terrorists' operation, which took place on September 11, 2001. The terrorist raiding continues, as the Bar-lev family sets out into the Orthodox Synagogue of New York City, disguising themselves as Orthodox Jews and pretentiously joining in the Yom Kippur services to cause a suicide bombing.
While the terrorist sects and allies, such as Muhammed Amin al-Husseini, rejoice over the bomb blast, the FBI Lara Edmond and Uri Levin, a Mossad agent, are fully aware of the terrorists' repeated operations as ominous to the entire world; hence, they take it upon themselves to identify the culprits and see how to put an end to the terrorists' deadly raids. Read in the book Devil Among Us to witness how the two braves, Lara and Uri, beat through all detective complexities while fighting to realize their ambition.
Devil Among Us: Lara and Uri Book 2 by Jack Winnick is an action thriller filled with suspense, tension-inducing scenes, and murder. It tells of the saga of two protagonists who selflessly took it upon themselves to rescue the Americans and the Israelis from the Islamic terrorist who seems unceasingly determined to wipe out all Israelis and as many Americans as possible.
First, the plot in this story is an intriguing and informative piece. I love the idea of using your strong will and intelligence to help save lives. This is evident as the protagonists stressed themselves both mentally and physically to save parts of the world. This brave attitude shown by the protagonists makes the plot an intriguing one. Second, I must commend the author for how he masterfully weaves the events and scenes of the plot to paint the reality surrounding each character and the events in the story. Jack's descriptive prowess is superb, and it allows me to read the book with convenience and in an entertaining atmosphere. The third-person perspective allows the author to describe the characters' gestures well, and this peculiarity made me visualize the nature of the characters while reading. As I am a lover of action scenes, the book doesn't compromise on engaging me in an action-packed and tension-inducing reading experience.
Furthermore, the author is able to build each character distinctively. I was able to experience the role and nature of each character, such as Yehudi Bar-lev, the only son of Saul and Esther Bar-lev. I was also awestruck by the many research works and historical knowledge that have been used in writing this book. The author's knowledge of the Middle East and their dealings with the United States, starting from the character names to the names of geographical places and physical features like churches, shows optimum knowledge of Jewish culture, as well as the well-known peculiarities of Islamic terrorists. Precisely, I found myself grinning at the author's naming of characters, as well as names of traditions, such as Yizkor, Saul, Husayni, Bat Mitzvah, etc.
The book earns a rating of 5 out of 5 stars from me. I didn't find anything to dislike in this great international thriller. The author shows historical knowledge and proves that the book is written masterfully by a genius of storytelling. I didn't notice a grammar error in the book, so it is said to be exceptionally well-edited.
To audiences who love action scenes and steady pace storytelling, I recommend this book. If you want well-described scenes and characters, as well as a thrilling writing style, and you don't mind seeing brutal killings, kidnappings, missile attacks, and bombings, you will love your reading experience.
