In this initial title, Allon is seduced back into the spy trade by his former handler Ari Shamron to catch the Palestinian terrorist Tariq, responsible for killing some of Allons family. The orders go into our warehouse to be picked, packed and consolidated into one parcel where appropriate. With The Kill Artist, Silva inaugurated a series of books featuring art restorer and former Israeli agent Gabriel Allon. Not because this is bad, but because the competition sets the bar so impossibly high.We aim to process and dispatch our orders within 24 hours. Personal preference, but it is just hard to give this one a 5 compared to some of the other stories out there. It should probably be 5 stars because I dropped a star for something that was likely done on purpose (lack of bad guys getting murdered by our hero). I am looking forward to the English Assassin.īottom line: I give it 4 stars. The book did enough to intrigue me to read the following story or two because I want to see what Allon can do when his back is against the wall. The other characters around him are written well, and the story moves along at a good pace. That being said, you can tell he is the best at what he does. I haven't read any of the other books, and I would bet Allon showcases his elite killing skills more in the following books, but they were not really on display in this one. Instead, he opts for intel gathering, using logic to figure things out, and formulating a solid plan of action. There is violence in this story, but the main character, Gabrielle Allon, avoids contact whenever possible. If you are looking for a book where the main character is an elite assassin that kills everyone that gets in his way until meeting his objective, you are better off sticking with Mitch Rapp and Victor the Assassin type of stories.

It is probably more realistic than most other Spy books.
