Hunter's Moon (2007) - Plot & Excerpts

Piece of shit. Why?•tHe consistently describes places and things like this: “Panama is among the most beautiful countries in the world. This was the most beautiful section of Panama.” WTF•tHhe loves using superlatives.•tAll of the following occurs within the first 4 pages: “there was a chance I’d be detained, arrested, or shot, maybe killed… powerful man…travel anonymously in this country? You? (referring to an x-President who show up and wants to spook around)... after the recent controversy… the million dollar bounty on my head…” To be bombarded with so many hooks, secrets and high stakes feels so cheap, so patronizing. I felt insulted by the author. I had to wonder what he assumed the attention span of his audience, of me, is like.What kept me reading this piece of shit? Imagining Steven Seagal playing the lead and ninja chopping some ass.

The last couple of books I read in the "Doc Ford" series by Randy Wayne White were pretty good. For some writers, that's a decent compliment, but for Randy Wayne White, it's a step down from his previous works.Then ... I started the CD of Hunter's Moon during my commute to/from work, and I found I was actually disappointed that the drive wasn't longer! I was tempted to drive around the block a couple of times just to get a little more listening time in!! THIS is the Doc Ford I've come to expect and has been missing since Tampa Burn.(view spoiler)[There is an irony about that statement that may become apparent to the reader by the end of the novel. (hide spoiler)]

What do You think about Hunter's Moon (2007)?

This is the second of the Doc Ford series that I have read and it did not disappoint. This time around Doc Ford reluctantly agrees to help a former, now dying, American president exact retribution on those he believes had a hand in murdering his wife in an incident most of the world believes to have been an accident. Ford's job is to both obey and keep the man safe; both things not always seeming to be possible at the same time. Through this unpredictable journey the ex president perseveres but not in any way I would have predicted. And the journey has great resonance for Doc as well.

Semi-decent story that didn't make it to the end. Special Forces guy come marine biologist gets a call from "an important person" wanting to disappear for 2 weeks. The important person is a former president who wants to track down the men who killed his wife. Lots of travel through South America and Panama, some chases, some torture, killers are located, meaningful speach about Panamanian freedom, the end.
—Dave

interesting story of Doc Ford helping former president Wilson mold world events, making the world safer for democracy, before Pres. Wilson dies of cancer. It takes Ford from the coast of FL to central america. He runs into a killer I think he has seen before, one that likes to burn people. The Panama Canal is being run by an Indonesian company which is headed by an Islamicist. There is the hint of grand plans of terrorism which hopefully leads to the apocalypse. But Ford and the former President
