Woe unto him who crosses Bob Lee Night of Thunder, especially when his daughter's life is at stake. Forced Night of Thunder the road and into a crash that leaves her in a coma, clinging to life, reporter Nikki Swagger had begun to peel back the onion of a Southern-fried conspiracy bubbling with all the Night of Thunder, resentment, and dysfunction that Dixie gangsters can muster. An ancient, violent crime Woe unto him who crosses Bob Lee Swagger, especially when his daughter's life is at stake. An ancient, violent crime clan, possibly corrupt law enforcement, gunmen of all stripes and shapes, and deranged evangelicals rear their ugly heads, and will live to rue the day they targeted the wrong man's daughter. It's what you call your big-time bad career move. All of it is set against the backdrop of excitement and insanity that only a weeklong NASCAR event can bring to the backwoods of a town as seemingly sleepy as Bristol, Tennessee. A master at the top of his game, Hunter provides a host of thrilling new reasons to listen as fast as we can. When Swagger picks up where his daughter left off, and his swift sword of justice is let loose, we find a true American hero in his most stunning action to date. And --in the form of Brother Richard, Night of Thunder self-decreed "Sinnerman" out of the old fire-and-brimstone tradition -- Hunter offers up his most diabolical, engaging villain yet.

Dec 20, Jim Coughenour rated it it was ok Shelves: justforfun. I wouldn't say that Stephen Hunter has lost his edge, only that he's indulging himself. Hunter's got a Pulitzer prize, Night of Thunder can write whatever he wants but this book is a dud. Even wors I wouldn't say that Stephen Hunter has lost his edge, only that he's indulging himself. In a sigh-inducing passage, one of his admirers remarks "You have Night of Thunder they have for sure, and it isn't luck Arkansas boy like you ought to know the term for it. If not, try Night of Thunder 'Samurai. You were there. Marine Corps. Or go back to the ancient Greeks: 'Spartan. Hunter's written a small shelf of white hot thrillers, and if you're in the mood for vicarious righteous kick-ass, grab one of the early ones. Night of Thunder will keep you warm too, even if you have to toss it on the fire when you're finished. This is the first book I have read by Stephen Hunter. This novel referred back to instances in previous novels and I feel it would have been better if I had read them first so I had a better understanding of the main character. According to several reviewers, Night of Thunder one had less action than other novels in the series and had several things about NASCAR inaccurate. Even if that is true This is the first book I have read by Stephen Hunter. Even if that is true, it did not detract Night of Thunder my enjoyment of the book. However, I am not sure how Swagger was able to get a hotel room during race week. They are generally booked up for miles around Bristol. For me, there was still plenty of action and a Night of Thunder of suspense. This showed more than just how good a shot Swagger is. It showed deductive and investigative skills. I am looking forward to reading more of Hunter's novels. Well, if I went 4 stars on 47th Samurai I have to Night of Thunder at least that here. I like others here often bemoan the limited range of our 5 start system. I like these books, like all of them that I've read it seems I missed one and will have to go back and pick up Time To Huntoops. I don't however think that so far one is a 5 Night of Thunder read. The first Night of Thunder close based on enjoyment and interest factors but not quite. The The 47th Samurai I found I suppose it would be on the lower e Well, if I went 4 stars on 47th Samurai I have to go at least that here. I suppose it would be on the lower edge of the 4 star range while Point Of Impact would be at the top. Here we have an enjoyable book. It hits the notes of the action adventure squarely and also give a pretty accurate view of one of America's signature activities, NASCAR Stephen Night of Thunder usually does a pretty good job of showing the reality of the poor working southerner vs. While they get called things like "trailer trash" they also end up making the best soldiers, cops and hardest workers. There was and may still be a place where the "dry" you can't buy alcoholic beverages Virginia Night of Thunder on one side of the street and "wet" you can buy alcoholic beverages Tennessee was on the other. You could cross the street and buy a drink. Bristol is on of three cities in Night of Thunder that are called "the Tri-Cities". These are Bristol, Johnson City and Kingsport. I grew up on a small farm about halfway between Johnson City and Kingsport. Our farm faced a dirt road. We went into Kingsport every few weeks and north across the state line into Virginia fairly often to visit both Night of Thunder of grandparents. So the picture SH paints of the flow of fans coming to the race is real. A few years ago my father passed away. I now live in Nashville and drove to Morristown where my dad and his wife lived. Morristown is around 41 miles from Knoxville. Knoxville is over a hundred miles from Bristol my dad's grave plot was between Kingsport and Bristol and we "processioned" there after the funeral Night of Thunder Morristown. There was not a motel room available anywhere with that hundred mile circle around Bristol. It was race weekend. The picture Mr. Hunter paints of the thrill and excitement around the Bristol is a very accurate picture. This book opens with someone making an attempt on the life of Bob Lee's daughter The "bad people" who might have made it, they might have prospered We're back on more home ground for Bob Lee here no more Night of Thunder swords and while a couple of Night of Thunder. Hunter's failings still show up a bit the book is well worth a read. If you're an action adventure reader, if you like to open a book and have the smell of burning cordite waft up from the pages this is one I think you'll like.
