C.K. Heartwing's Reviews > Kill Order

Kill Order is a fast-paced thriller with a rather interesting premise--what if your free will was taken away? This idea is explored when Landon Jeffers has a chip implanted into his brain that can control his body. The story is a little confusing at first, as the first several chapters jump from several POVs without a clear direction, but about a third of the way through the book, it begins to become clear, and the middle especially picks up and is rather interesting. The ending is interesting as well but felt as if it was missing something. Perhaps more resolution, though this is the first book in the series, so I imagine things will become clearer in the second book. There are a few continuation/timeline errors. While at times I wished it was a little more in depth, I appreciate the fact that faith is an integral part of the story and is woven throughout the book. I do feel like the themes and faith element could have been explored in a little more depth and that the tension needed just a little something more to it. The internal struggles of the MC could have been more in depth as well. Overall, Kill Order is a fast-paced read and explores themes and topics that leave you pondering them in depth later on. I'll be continuing the series and look forward to the next book. I haven't read much in the way of thrillers before, but it was definitely a fun read.
