He just goes after terrorists and bad guys, regardless of their political affiliations. Vince Flynn passed away in at the very young age of 47, when he lost his long-time battle with prostate cancer. During his lifetime, the Vince Flynn books sold 15 million copies, which were translated into several languages all over the world. The movie American Assassin, that premiered in , is based on the same-titled Vince Flynn book, which is the prequel to the entire series. Action-packed, in-your-face, adrenalin-pumped super-hero macho escapist fiction that does exactly what it says on the label Iris Independent.
Mitch Rapp is a great character who always leaves the bad guys either very sorry for themselves or very dead Guardian. Endless intrigue…Flynn mixes in a spicy broth of brutal terrorists, heroic commandos, and enough secret-agent hijinks to keep the confrontation bubbling until its flag-raising end Publishers Weekly.
The first book I read and just finished was Act of Treason. Just picked up American Assassin and will read them chronologically. RIP Vince Flynn. You tell an excellent story. Love from New Zealand. Having read the previous I buy them 3 at a time from Booktopia. I have Book 12 and 13 waiting. I just cant get enough of this interesting character. Am I an addict?? If you do start the series, start with American Assassin before anything else.
It is not only about character development in the books, but also about the fact that many of the plotlines actually build up one on top of the other one.
Thus it is easier to follow the thread, so to speak if one reads the books in order. The Mitch Rapp series is one of my favorites in the modern spy thriller genre.
Vince Flynn really knew how to write his books sadly he passed away in of prostate cancer at the young age of I first came across this series years ago after reading books by Robert Ludlum, Tom Clancy and John Le Carre actually the John Le Carre was my first introduction to spy novels in the first place.
I got hooked. He always solves the cases which makes him both equally loved, feared and hated by politicians on Capitol Hill. For example, in the American Assassin movie, there is a bomb, which is not present in the book.
Also, the main motivation for counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp is the Lockerbie bombing, is replaced in the movie with a terrorist attack on the beach where his girlfriend to whom he just proposed is killed. Last but not least, the CIA assistant director in the book is a tough, bad-ass woman who really helps the books shine.
In the movie, while the actress playing it was good, there was still something missing to her character. Maybe because they had to squeeze a whole lot of paper in a two-hour movie. Thus, there was not all that much for me to complain in the first place. Should you read the American Assassin by Vince Flynn before watching the movie?

The author had also dyslexia. Back in the day, there was not all that much information about dyslexia, but Vince was trying to overcome it by keeping a strict daily regimen of reading and writing. During this time he fell in love with books and decided to become a writer as well. In the meantime, to pay his bills, and since he could no longer work with the Marine Corps, he went to work at United Properties as a commercial real estate leasing agent, a job which could turn out to be quite a lucrative for him.
Eventually, he quit his job, moved to Colorado and started writing books full time. He wrote and published on his own his debut novel, Term Limits.
The book was featured on the New York Times bestseller list for several weeks. He very much wanted to continue writing books, especially since several of his first novels, including Transfer of Power , The Third Option , and Separation of Power were all on the NYT bestseller list.
In , the author was diagnosed with a rare form of prostate cancer. While getting treatment, he continued to write his bestselling novels. Over the years, he wrote 14 books, out of which 13 are part of his popular Mitch Rapp series.
