About book The Delta Solution (2011)

Jeg har brukt 2 uker på denne boka. Det sier vel det meste. Det har vært to utrooolig lange uker! Ikke har jeg hatt det spesielt travelt heller. Hvor enn så mye jeg ville så klarte jeg ikke å drive meg selv kjappere gjennom boka. Den er langsom. Fryktelig langsom. Og detaljert. Over-detaljert til det pinefulle. 80% av boka brukes som bakgrunnsfyll. Her følger vi piratene i suksessfullt angrep etter suksesfullt angrep. SEAL gruppen bygges opp parallelt "på si".Bakgrunnen og oppbygningen av den store (?) konfrontasjonen var så møysommelig at når først de to grupperingene - piratene og SEAL gruppa - møttes så var det hele over raskere enn jeg fikk sagt "løsepenger". Ingen motstand fra piratene, alt gikk på skinner for SEAL, long live USA and the SEALS are the best - f#%k the rest...Dette var ikke noe for meg! Til og med SEAL angrepet på det kaprede piratskipet var kjedelig. Der jeg forventet spenning og action skjedde det ingenting uforventet. Ikke noe som gav historien kant eller interessant vri. Vel er helten Scarecrow til Matthew Reilly over the top and then some, jeg skal innrømme det, men plottene Reilly disker opp med er så utrolig mye mer spennende og forseggjorte enn dette her. Nei - jeg tror det går lang tid før jeg plukker opp Patrick Robinson igjen! I don't know if i'm getting mild in my old days or if maybe Robinson ist losing his edge but this was almost completely pleasant to read. If you like Clancy-Style Techno/Military Thrillers Robinson is always a good choice and this book is no exception in this.An honorable mention should go to the special "comic relief" element he chose for the halftime of the book... Al Qaeda in a very hilarious and short cameo.Other than that he manages to describe an almost likeable pirate group with sympathetic characters and believeable as well as emotionally followable motives that nearly make it heartbreaking when the final showdown comes closer and closer. Retrospectively seen... he gives his villains more of characterisation and human face than his protagonists that end up as third rate paper cut outs of cliché-soldiers without real human sides or rough spots. Too smooth to believe.Andthen of course there is the teaparty-like Military-fangirling. Yes. The SEALS do a heck of a job. YES they do train hard and are tough guys. Yes, they might even be by a wide margin the "best" special operations force on the whole wide world. But honestly... they are what they are because of training and SOP methods, not because a rabid author goes and writes a mantra down a thousand times on five hundred pages "they're cool, they're awesome, they're badass" and so on. And they definitely are not "the best" because of the shitty mediocre scenario the Author wrote them on the fit bodies. Three year old kids could come up with better and more realistic "battle plans" than his nonplusultra SEAL commander. This was the most disappointing part in a up to then very enjoyable book and nice pastime. It ended with a slow and silent fart from a tacticle whoopie cushion nobody should believe in anymore. Shame on you Mr Robinson. That's FAR under your own worth!
