Pick Up Boy Nobody 3: Forræderen Illustrated By Allen Zadoff Distributed In Digital Version
ending of a fun series based on teens working for "the Program" as assassins, This book was much more predictable than the other two and produced a large amount of eyerolling with lines like, "he took three long breathes to oxygenate his brain.
" Not a huge fan of the ending, but its still as wildly entertaining as the books before it, Sad to see it end,
Creo que la mejor forma de expresar mis sentimientos por este libro es mediante este emoji:,
No me gusta ser negativa, pero lo voy a ser con este libro, Si bien las entregas anteriores no son la gran cosa, me mantenía prendida al libro por la acción, y porque muchas veces se salía de lo cliché.
Si bien sí, los escenarios de acción son cliché, la trama en sí tomaba un giro que no me esperaba, y eso me mantenía ahí, leyendo.
Pero este tercer libro una decepción total, y voy a comentarlo por puntos porque se me hace mejor organizarlo de esa manera, Hay libros y libros con sus respectivas charlas,
. La acción: está presente como los libros anteriores, pero ya me parece demasiado el uso de lugares clichés, Yo entiendo que son los lugares que más atrapan a un lector, y que generan adrenalina, pero el lugar solo no genera adrenalina, sino también lo que pasa en el lugar, y eran cosas que.
. . no tenían sentido porque cruzaba el límite total de la fantasía, Si bien ocurren cositas en las peleas que uno dice "esto no puede ser humanamente posible", puede creérselo por el poder del protagonista, y porque te detallan lo utilizado y uno piensa "ok, bueno, en un caso del".
En cambio, en este libro, no ocurre, no puede pasar, y los cuidados y variables no tienen sentido, No menciono detalles específicos porque no quiero spoilear, pero así se sintieron, lugares de acción porque sí, porque tenían que estar, y ya.
. Las mujeres: este punto en particular me hizo enojar y cerrar el libro, En los libros anteriores podía entenderlo, comprenderlo, de hecho en el primer libro me gustó el desarrollo, pero luego, . . hizo BOOM y decayó. Voy a ponerlo como spoiler así no lo mando de una,
. El desarrollo de personajes: no hay, No vi crecer a ninguno, salvo, un poquito pero así a Zach, pero nada, eso, No vi algo que evolucione, sino que da vuelta en círculos, El resto de personajes nada,
. El final: no voy a decir nada por obvias razones, pero no me gustó nada, Es decepcionante, demasiado decepcionante, al igual que todas las explicaciones,
No tengo nada positivo para rescatarle, y lamento eso, La trilogía no venía mal, y tampoco es que tenía altas expectativas porque sé que es un libro de acción juvenil, del cual tengo poca experiencia en acción, y no suelo leer juveniles, pero sí sé que pueden ser más light en ciertos aspectos, pero no hay que confundir light con pésimo final, pésimas explicaciones, y momentos repetitivos de acción, con personajes repetitivos, y solo el deseo de hacerlo película.
Vi una reseña que justo señalaba esto, el hecho de que el libro parece gritar HÁGANME PELÍCULA Y NADA MÁS y la verdad es que si, coincido.

Libromentes I am The Traitor by AllenZadoff
Gracias somosbestya por el ejemplar
I received this book from a local publisher in exchange for an honest review
IAmTheTraitor is the last instalment The Unknown Assassin trilogy.
We follow ayearold soldier who works for a mysterious organization called The Program, The rules are simple: dont make questions and protect The Program above everything else,
In his last mission, our main character has to face his own doubts while trying to decide what is more important: The Program or his own life.
Ill try to be as vague as possible since this is the last book in a trilogy full of action sequences, car chases and every typical ingredient we can see in action films.
If you enjoy this type of movies, youre probably going to like this novel as well,
The weakest point of this story relies on the fact that the characters are not plausible, especially our main protagonist who is more like a robot than an actual human being, capable of having a perfect control of his emotions and even his heart rhythm.
Despite that fact, the fast moving plot with barely any descriptions make me fly through this novel, Not a master piece but it was OK, perfect for ahour readathon
Rating:
ESPAÑOL:
YoSoyElTraidor es la última entrega de la trilogía de Asesino Anónimo en la cual seguimos a un soldado deaños quien trabaja para una misteriosa organización llamada El Programa.
Las reglas son simples: no has preguntas y protege al Programa por encima de cualquier cosa,
En su última misión nuestro protagonista tendrá que enfrentar sus dudas mientras trata de decidir qué es lo más importante si el Programa o su propia vida.
Intentaré ser lo más vaga posible considerando que este es el último libro en una trilogía llena de acción, persecuciones y todos los típicos ingredientes de una película de acción.
Si este tipo de películas son de su agrado, de seguro disfrutarán esta novela,
El punto débil de esta historia recae en que sus personajes no son verosímiles especialmente el protagonista quien es más parecido a un robot que a un ser humano, capaz de tener un perfecto control sobre sus emociones e incluso sobre su ritmo cardíaco.
A pesar de eso lo rápido que se mueve el argumento me hizo volar por las páginas de esta historia,
Me gustó, pero tampoco es ninguna obra maestra
Puntuación:Marusitas soms erg voorspelbaar, maar verder erg leuk! Having kept up with author Alan Zadoffs The Unknown Assassin trilogy from the very beginning, I was interested in getting to finally see how Boy Nobodysor, Zachstory would finally wrap up.
Considering the unending action that filled I Am The Traitors predecessors, I was excited to delve into a novel that would offer a brand new story that would ultimately make or break the series.
In I Am The Traitor, we are reintroduced to Boy Nobodys world full of espionage, betrayal, and secrets, His doubts toward the Program are made plain and he has no problem with bringing them down, But Zachs defiance brings about a whole new problem when he discovers that his old friend and ally, Howard, is in trouble, Forced to look back to his past assignments, Zach is reconnected with past connections, as well as introduced to brand new faces who have also been affected by the Program.
What Boy Nobody doesnt anticipate is that you might not be able to let anybody too close and that the Program, no matter how hard he might fight to escape it, will never be too far behind.
Right off the bat I can say that, like the novels that came before it, I Am The Traitor is filled with action sequences and other badass goodness.
I felt right at home reading fight sequences that flowed naturally, watching as Boy Nobody battled against his typical antagonists, and reading about the conflicts that have plagued him in every novel of the trilogy.
Like always, if you are a fan of action then The Unknown Assassin trilogy is for you, What accompanies the fastpaced action scenes is a thrilling atmosphere that cannot be ignored and leaves readers on the edge of their seats,
Zadoffs writing creates a unique world where readers can experience the life of an assassin and realize that it certainly isnt what its cracked up to be.
Zadoffs prose is simplistic and allows for a quick read, While I do wish that there were more instances where descriptors could have been provided, it was easy to establish an idea of the scene in my mind while reading.
However, I will admit that while all of the fighting was awesome, there was no denying the fact that the plot of the novel began to feel a lot like the same old same old.
In previous novels, Zach/Boy Nobody has been given an assignment, typically involving a teenage girl, whom he gets close to and inevitably has sexual relations with the girl, before finishing his assignment off and moving on to whatever the Program has given him next.
While Zach is far from proProgram in this novel, I did feel like the same song and dance was being repeated in I Am The Traitor.
If youve read the novel, you know what Im talking aboutand if you havent and are about to, you will find out, I certainly wasnt underwhelmed by I Am The Traitor, but I wasnt blown away either, Im a firm believer that the final novel in a trilogy should be definitive of the entire series, and that it should leave the reader with an experience that theyve never had before.
I would recommend The Unknown Assassin trilogy to any readers who are big fans of spy thrillers a la the Bourne movies, Any readers who are looking for an interesting, thrilling read should also give The Unknown Assassin novels a read, Lastly, any readers who are fans of novels that feature major character development across a series should definitely give it a try, I don't know Zach any better at the end of this third installment than I did in the first, that's my biggest issue though not my only one.
Of character development, there was none,
Goes for the secondary characters, too, Repeating the few identifying traits each has just wasn't enough to give em life, Inconsistent actions and reactions really didn't help with the fleshing either,
Flat. All around pancakeflat.
Fast paced story, sure, No argument on that. But when I couldn't rouse any feeling for a single character, how could I be expected to care about a damn thing they were going through, huh
The super fast pace of happenings also made much of it seem kinda ludicrous.
And forced. Riddled with an abundance of jarring and confusing timeline inaccuracies,
The plot 'twists' didn't floor me, In fact, I found it increasingly difficult to see Zach in the light of a Master Assassin when he was so stupendously blind to so much of.
. . well, everything.
Some particularly irksome points I can't not mention:
For me, this was a shallow read that screamed far too loudly 'I WANT TO BE MADE INTO A FILM, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!'
Disappointing,
