Lethal Justice

I got this opportunity to read Lethal Justice the first book by Ethan Reed, what a great debut! we get to follow Ion Frost trying to deliver the dog tags of his friend to his nephew in the small town of Lincoln. Then he plans to disappear because some bad people from his army days are trying to kill him. Well, the best laid plans of mice and men you know... There is something very wrong in the community of lincoln and we get a wild ride with Ion trying to get the problems sorted and at the same time keeping himself safe. Good luck with that. I must thank @netgalley and @relaypublishing for making this great book available to me. #EthanReed #Netgalley #LethalJustice

Good book!! Wow this book had my heart pumping out of my chest!! There was so much action, suspense, intrigue, murder and mayhem! It was a great murder mystery/ DEA/ cop/ drug lords/ etc lol you get the picture! It really had a great storyline! I highly recommend reading this book! Its well worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me! Big thank you to Ethan Reed for your amazing words!! Found another great new to me author! Can't wait for more!

This is probably my favourite genre and this author fitted in well with those I would seek out to read again now.
Well written and an easy read, the characters are strong and the pace is just right.
Many thanks.

Superb action-packed thrilling story! I could not put it down and can’t wait to find out what will happen next. This may be a debut novel but definitely did not read like one!

What I liked:
* Frost: veteran, bomb disposal special operator, strong, lethal, intelligent, suffering from TBI, on a mission, damaged but not destroyed, survivor – someone I want to get to know much better.
* Sarah: tattoo artist, new acquaintance of Frost’s, has had rough times and may want some revenge for what happened in the past.
* Lincoln: the nephew of one of Frost’s friends, dies too young.
* The writing – superb – drew me in – held me tight
* The setting – Wyoming is a place I have always wanted to visit…but think I would steer clear of the town in this story…at least till it was sanitized!
* That Frost managed to survive all that he did – what an indomitable will he must have had.
* The flashbacks to time in Afghanistan that Frost had throughout the story
* That many bad guys were dealt with rather ruthlessly
* The action scenes worked
* The insights into Frost derived from conversations with his friend Brakespeare, his memories, and interactions with others.
* That Frost reminded me a bit of other main characters but was also a whole lot different than them and a character/individual in his own right.
* Wondering about a few things that I hope will become clearer over time:
- Will Frost’s brain settle or remain hampered?
- Will the evil doers that have a bounty on Frost’s head be thwarted?
- Who is the guy who called Frost at the end of the book?
- What will happen next?
* Hoping/knowing that there is another book coming

What I didn’t like:
* The bad guys that Frost encountered in Afghanistan and in Wyoming – they were easy to hate and wish a bad ending.
* Knowing that there are evil people in the world like the ones in this book
* Having to wait for the next book.

Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Definitely!

Thank you to NetGalley and Relay Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review.
