*Starred Review* Coes delivers his best effort to date in this thriller starring Dewey Andreas, a maverick agent whom the alphabet agencies rely on to get the tough jobs done. After helping unmask an Israeli traitor secretly working for the Chinese, Andreas becomes a target, with the head of China’s state security launching a full-out campaign against him and vowing not to stop until the American is a stain on the ground. The fight becomes personal for Andreas, and he will exact revenge even if it means going rogue from his usual allies to get the job done. The bullets fly, and the death toll is huge, but in the midst of all the chaos, there is a hero the reader truly cares about. The story line would have made a perfect setup for a season of the television series 24, what with terrorists on the loose and a Jack Bauer character out to save the world and extract a pound of flesh that is undeniably owed him. Highly recommended for fans of full-throttle action and writing that fits its subject perfectly. The ending clearly paves the way for another Andreas novel, and it can’t come fast enough. --Jeff Ayers
Review
Praise for New York Times Bestseller Eye For An Eye:
"Heart-pounding...Coes is a master." - Publishers Weekly
"Coes delivers his best effort to date." - Booklist (starred review)
"An exceptional American hero story." - Kirkus Reviews
"Exhilarating...perfect pacing...action-packed. This is true of his first three novels and goes double for his latest, in which Coes sets the bar high and then exceeds it." -
Bookreporter"Novels featuring Dewey Andreas are best counted among life's guilty pleasures." -
Library JournalPraise for Ben Coes:
“Envision Clancy, Forsyth, and le Carre all writing in their prime . . . then kick in the boosters.” —Brad Thor
“Ben Coes has created a hero who ranks with the protagonists in a Vince Flynn or Brad Thor thriller . . . The Last Refuge is a winner and will keep readers turning the pages." —The Associated Press
“Terrific! With a gripping story, compelling characters, a relentless pace, and nerve-wracking suspense, Power Down is one of the must-read thrillers of the year.” —Vince Flynn
“Action, international intrigue, romance—it doesn't get any better.”—
San Jose Mercury News on
The Last Refuge“The plot sizzles with action, and the details have an authentic ring…a cut above the pack.”
Publishers Weekly on
Coup d’Etat
“A ripping thriller from an exciting new novelist... Lots of action, a terrific hero, and a slimy villain—thrillers don’t get any better.” –Stephen Coonts, author of The Disciple, on Power Down

Epub Eye for an Eye: A Dewey Andreas Novel
I won't spend your time here having you read a summary of the book's plot, which can be obtained in the Amazon Book Description. I'll just say that the plot in Eye For Ane Eye has Dewey Andreas squaring off with some of the same characters he dealt with in Coes's last book, The Last Refuge, but this time for more personal reasons.
What I mainly want to say, which I hope will be important in helping to decide if this book is for you, is that Eye For An Eye is a page-turner from literally the first page to the last page, and is a thriller I think you'll find to be very entertaining and captivating. On a comparative basis, in my opinion, Eye For An Eye is as well done as the first two books featuring Dewey Andreas in terms of delivering pulse-pounding suspense and credible, well-developed characters, and slightly surpasses The Last Refuge on these dimensions. Based on Power Down and Coup D'Etat, Coes has led me to expect his books to conclude with a Big Bang; and he certainly lived up to my expectations in Eye For An Eye.
My only reason for giving this book a 4-star rating (actually I'd rate it 4 1/2 stars, if possible) rather than a 5-star rating is that the ending is a little ambiguous in terms of "where does Dewey go from here." But, I'm sure Coes will make this ambiguity crystal clear in his next book, which, unfortunately, his fans will have to wait another year or so to find out. Being a big fan of this series, I, once again, will be ready to volunteer to go all-out with Dewey Andreas on his next mission, despite the potential danger to those associated with him.
I'd recommend Eye For An Eye to anyone who enjoys a heavily plot driven thriller in the tradition of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor.
