Ad man, or is that Mad Man, turned CIA assassin? I’m totally onboard for this ride. I love a good story of a person forced to become a killer no matter how ridiculous it gets. That’s good stuff where I’m from. And Kill on Command was a perfect example of this far fetched art form.
I don’t think it was meant to be taken seriously. It’s a good time ride where you leave critical thinking at the door. Think 1980’s Van Claude Van Damme and enjoy yourself.

Excellent book
I really enjoyed this book and found it to be just the right mix between action, suspense, and dare I say it love and betrayal. I will definitely look forward to the next few books in the series.

I thought 'Kill On Command' was a good solid read for a wet weekend (probably just as good on a nice weekend too!). The premise is interesting and the story fast-paced but not so much that I lost track as I tend to do in novels that leap about too quickly. The author writes well and the only thing that I would pick him up on is the need to get a new proof-reader as there are many small errors (mainly spelling and the use of the wrong form of a word e.g. devise for device, carbide for carbine), enough, for me anyway, to detract from the story itself.
The author clearly knows and loves Pittsburgh and this comes out in his writing without being over the top: after reading Kill on Command, I feel that I could navigate the city quite easily but I don't feel that the author's knowledge was being grandstanded in front of me.
As the first in a series, this story ties up enough plot lines to resolve itself comfortably by the end while still leaving at least two good plot lines to develop further in the series (without that ripped-off 'I have to buy the next one?' feeling). I would certainly be keen to read the next in the series...

It's worth the price
Average writing style, a few grammar errors an interesting story. It kept my interest, surprised attending. I will read the next one

fun read
Fun book to read. On the edge of realism. Very well written. Good writing style. Not a formula book, like some.
