Before reading this review, I would say that this is not the kind of book that I would love to read. However, your captivating introduction in this review sparked my interest in the book and now I am considering grabbing and reading the book. Thank you for the insightful review.

The cliffhanger is intriguing, what could happen still when the reviewer said this could have been finished. Although there is a great storyline awaiting readers.

Thank you for the review. Your perspectives here are taken note of. This is however not my kind of book so i won't be reading it.

This book sounds like an interesting thriller. I love it that it immerses its readers into business world and the sleaziness of corporate espionage—centered on the expansion of the Panama Canal. I'll definitely read this one.

I'm a fan of C/T/M/H genre. So, this is one of the books I wouldn't miss out for anything in the world. The cliffhanger at the end is a bit off-putting. But, I'd still like to read it and see where it will lead.

It sounds that this should be a very interesting thriller in which the powerful countries like the USA and China are competing against one another in the pursuit of power. Thank you for the review!

It sounds like an interesting story. I like that it is fast paced and keeps the reader on their toes. I am a big romance fan so reading that there is some in this book is a good thing. That being said I am still not sure of this one is for me. Congratulations on BOTD.

I'm sure I'd find this interesting, as I've worked on some pretty large infrastructure projects as an engineer. A thriller I can relate to! Then again a cliffhanger ending is super annoying as I don't like to be held hostage until the next book. Thanks for your great review.

I like the book already, I might be halting on reading it until the next installment is out. I like continuity to keep the flow. Thanks for warning me on the cliffhanger part. I like series but standalone ones make it easier since I'm not so patient. I have to wait a bit before reading it. Thanks for your review, Scerakor.
