Chronicle Concering Books The Breach (Travis Chase #1)
“Audacious and terrifying—and uncannily believable.”—Lee Child
New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series, Lee Child, was blown away by The Breach—and you will be, too! A novel of unrelenting suspense and nonstop surprises, The Breach immediately rockets author Patrick Lee into the V.I.P. section of the thriller universe. A treat for Jack Bauer (“24”) fans and “X-Files” aficionados, it is a white-knuckle roller-coaster ride that combines the best of Dean Koontz and Michael Crichton with a healthy dollop of Indiana Jones thrown into the mix—the perfect secret agent/government conspiracy/supernatural adventure.

Holy mind fuck ending! That is all.A book worth reading. Every once in a while you find a nice surprise, a novel that is unique and intriguing. A science experiment goes wrong, but something interesting comes out of it. Something no one is prepared for. Something dangerous, but alluring at the same time. Travis Chase, recently out of prison is trying to find himself in remote Alaska and make some decisions about his future. While hiking he stumbles across something extraordinary, which pulls him into a world that changes the
This was a totally fun but also ludicrous book. The story has so many twists and turns, especially at the end, that after I finished I tried to puzzle out the loopiness. Then I gave up trying to understand because the plot required so much suspension of disbelief that I might as well have been walking on air.Let's go back to the fun part! Travis Chase goes on what he thought would be a peaceful hike in the Alaskan wilderness. One day he finds an airplane that had crashed in the woods. He goes to
I read this book because David Goyer is adapting it to film. Reading this book reminded me of The Onion's accusations that Fast & Furious was written by a 5-year-old child, because that's the only logical explanation for the illogical sequences and stupendously trite tropes in that film, just as it is the only logical explanation for what happens in this book.It has a main character who is a nobody with a troubled past, thrust into a huge government cover-up when he finds the President's
Reminds me of some of the better Twilight Zone and Outer Limits episodes I've seen. A science experiment goes awry, smart people try to solve the problem while villainous people try to exploit and abuse the consequencs, and the protagonist somehow connects to it all. Questions drive the plot, and half-answers keep things interesting. Best of all, I still have no idea what Patrick Lee is up to with this book or its forthcoming followup - and I'm keen to find out. So: entertaining in the moment
This seemed, from the description, to be right up my alley. Sci-fi military(ish) survivalist(ish) thriller! Let's go!I was gripped from the beginning and horribly interested when he found the downed plane, but from there it started to go downhill. Travis was a bit too much of a perfect action hero without enough explanation, leaving him flat, Paige was a bit too perfectly badass and stoic, also coming off as pretty flat, and their immediate trust and bond felt forced. Still, I wanted it to be
Be forewarned: This book is BRUTAL.No, really. It's brutal. While the descriptions are never over the top - for the scenarios involved, the prose is remarkably restrained and lets the reader's imagination fill in the horrifying details - the situations themselves are horrific and the physical violence done is immense. If you have a weak stomach and/or a strong imagination, you may not want to read this book.Then again, you may want to, because for all its brutality, it's inventive, engaging, and
