I was thinking could you see that happening because both mean a ton to Ben, would ground the series, and force the team to remember that spy craft could cost you your life at any time. Secondly, both Mike and Zoe have been irrelevant for many books, I also can't stand Trixie as I thought she brought absolutely nothing to the series, Svetlana too. Let's talk about it!
I’ve been a fan of the series for a long time, and I know that there a tons of issues of this series, epically the newer books. But there’s one issue that no one really talks about, and it’s the frustrating pattern in the every books that’s making them really hard to enjoy: the endings feel insanely rushed and unsatisfying.
It feels like every recent release follows the exact same formula when it comes to the climax:
300 pages of setup, 5 pages of resolution: The book spends almost the entire story building up a massive threat or a complex villain plot, only for the actual climax to start and wrap up in a single, lightning-fast chapter.
I could list examples all day, but I'll pass the mic to you guys. Am I the only one who thinks the ending of every book should be longer? Is there any book that felt like had an actual reasonable conclusion and resolution as everything feels rushed?
