I think it is completely possible to be addicted to a series and an author. Every time I see a new book on the publication release list by this author, I feel all tingly inside! It has all of the earmarks of a serious addiction.
Releasing next week, check out my thoughts on this explosive story below.
Midnight Black by Mark Greaney
Series: Gray Man Book 14
Publisher: Berkley (February 18, 2025)
ISBN-13: 978-0593548189
Synopsis:
A winter sunrise over the great plains of Russia is no cause for celebration. The temperature barely rises above zero, and the guards at Penal Colony IK22 are determined to take their misery out on the prisoners—chief among them, one Zoya Zakharova. Once a master spy for Russian foreign intelligence, then the partner and lover of the Gray Man, she has information the Kremlin wants, and they don’t care what they have to do to get it.
But if they think a thousand miles of frozen wasteland and the combined power of the Russian police state is enough to protect them, they don’t know the Gray Man. He’s coming, and no one’s safe.
Midnight Black by Mark Greaney Review
When Book 13 The Chaos Agent ended, my heart was in my throat. What seems to be an impossible task becomes a life-or-death journey for the Gray Man in this story. With pulse-pounding action at every turn, the gift the Greaney has for storytelling is amazing.
Every chapter features unbelievable, highly imaginative action that makes his writing addictive. The reader is deeply ensconced with the characters, gasping and keyed up with every chapter.
The secondary characters are depicted perfectly, feel seemingly real, and add immense depth to the story. Zack and his band of warriors, Court and his group, and Zoya, of course, test their limits and ours!
This one is a crazy, intense story with an amazing plot that doesn’t quit. The ending killed me because we are given so little. Ugh! But a great setup for what is to come.
If you haven’t read a Gray Man book yet, go back a few books before diving into this one. It will be worth it!
5 STARS!!
