The Carr/Woodward collaboration is genius, especially since Woodward's been handling the Jack Ryan universe. Carr's comment about Have Gun Will Travel as inspiration is spot on, that 'stranger comes to town' archetype never gets old. The fact that the Afghan withdrawal plays into the story makes it feel incredibley timely. Also interesting that he's keeping the Reece series going while launching this new one, dunno how he balances all that plus TV production.

Crazy thing is, Amazon had the cover and blurb up for weeks. Seems this happens often with new spy thrillers.
I have all of his books and just preordered The Fourth Option. It sounds like he's putting out the perfect book for our current problems. Cannot wait!
