Representaion Conducive To Books The Fifth Profession

This book started out great, mystery intrigue spying and bodyguard-ing. Then it took a left turn out of interesting into crazy town. Spoiler Alert* Their brains were messed with. So it goes on and on and on Matrix style with is this a dream is this a real memory or is this fabricated. Chapter after chapter as they are chased and chase people. Oh and then all of a sudden the woman who was saved is suddenly and inexplicably in love with our protagonist. Seriously there is hardly any meaningful conversation or emotional exchange and then it is all "I love you" and "I would follow you into hell" it would be way more believable and I would have not sprained my verisimilitude had she just wanted a quickie in the sack. But back to the is it real is it not problem. The author lost me about 3/4th of the way though the book. Perhaps I was not paying attention and speed reading because "oh no is this a dream or not let's chase and be chased" was happening. (never I) but I have no idea WHY the main character and his (Again suddenly and inexplicably BEST-EST friend in the world) had to have the same memory, that happens to happen later in real life? Really? So if any of you careful readers could drop me a line to explain it to me that would be great, because I am sure as heck not going to re-read this.

Assessment Appertaining To Books The Fifth Profession

Started out decent but went downhill quickly. Painful to hang in to the end and finish.

How do you tell if a book has samurai in it? Don't worry, they'll put a katana on the cover. A book about ninjas is a little harder, since they are invisible to anyone that hasn't just been killed by a ninja. How do you tell if a book is a thriller? Don't worry, they'll put a gun on the cover.Professional protectors - the fifth profession.... get it! - Savage and Akira are teamed up to protect a travelling businessman. Things go horribly wrong and Savage is beaten to a pulp after seeing the

I remember I liked Morrell's novels "The Fraternity of the Stone" and "The League of Night and Fog" quite a lot when I was quite a lot younger. Therefore I bought this book from a second hand book store at the Helsinki Book Fair. I had expectations. And unfortunately they were not met. The novel was a disappointment. The further I read the more unsatisfied I was and in the end my evaluation was nearly "rubbish". Well written rubbish but anyway rubbish.Totally unbelievable plot, and I don't mean

or a moral, but it needs to be bloody, and it needs to be fun. This book is both of those things, and in spades.It is also deeply, and unintentionally, silly.It doesn't seem that way, at first. There's an intro about the importance and glorious history of professional protectors, in both Eastern and Western cultures. Then we get our hero, Savage, starting a new rescue assignment. Then we get a flashback, which starts very well...And ends with a moment so OTT it becomes splat-stick.Back to the

The book starts off like an action flick from the 80s which stars two heroes and a heroine oozes sexuality. Since one of them is a Caucasian and the other a Japanese, I am going to assume for Hollywoods sake that we will put in Mel Gibson and Chow Yun Fat as the protagonists. The movie trailers tell us that one of them is a Navy SEAL and the other is trained in the Samurai arts. They are executive protectors of the first order and both get sent on a mission to Greece. You settle in with popcorn

Great book this is my first one by this author, but I enjoyed it immenseley.

Savage and Akira, protectors, aka bodyguards, aka "The Fifth Profession," are severely injured at a meeting...but when they compare notes, each saw the other killedin fact, beheaded, right after their client was killed. Problem: all are still alive. False memories via surg procedure. Sidebar of love story with Rachel. Just too many wild improbabilities for me, leaps of illogic...glad when I was done that it was over.
