The Beijing Betrayal by Joel C. Rosenberg is a Christian political thriller and the last book of the Marcus Ryker series. What a ride it has been! Fast-paced, thrilling, suspense, twists and even a bit of romance. This book has it. The author has taken us round the different possible enemies of the United States and the series ends with an unlikely collaboration among China, Russia and Pakistan, but involving a course-changing betrayal. I love the character development and I was sad to see some characters killed off, but it made the series more realistic. A worthy end to the Marcus Ryker series. I look forward to more books from Joel C. Rosenberg.
Thank you, Netgalley and Tyndale House Publishers | Tyndale Fiction, for granting me access to the ARC. All opinions expressed are mine.
What a brilliant finale to the MarcusRyker series by JOEL C ROSENBERG! THE BEIJING BETRAYAL has it all - it is a riveting political thriller, with well developed characters, an exciting story and a strong Christian message - what more could you want?!
Marcus Ryker’s missiion to stop imminent danger to America and Taiwan takes us through the Middle East, Russia, China and India, the white House and the Ops Centre of the CIA. The author’s vast knowledge of world affairs makes us feel that we are opening tomorrow’s newspapers!
The wickedness of fallen man comes through strongly as we see the way Kairos, the Libyan terrorist organization, and the Chinese head of state, to name but a few, have no respect for human or animal life!
I am not going to tell you any more for fear of spoiling your read.
I cannot recommend the novel highly enough.
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Tyndale House Publishers. The opinions in this review are completely my own.
