I agree that you need to try to  the Korean characters names a bit too much, but I feel that you need to with all of the characters. Many of the characters aren't properly introduced but you do get to learn more about them over time. You can learn a lot about the characters even though you only know them for 41 hours. I also agree with the tediousness of remembering what character is currently doing what. It does make it more action packed switching POV so often, but it can be confusing at times if forgot a certain event. I do agree that the character development and overall story depth make up for this though.]]> 2018-10-30 12:17:34 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298441240 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298441398 2018-10-30 12:17:47 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298441398 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298451654 "'You're a hero' the doctor said to Donald. Am I? he thought as the blue sky went gray and then black"(Clancy 335).]]> 2018-10-30 12:38:11 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298451654 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298451723 *SPOILERS* obviously. This is not Donald's last words, but it is the last we hear from him in the book. He is questioning if he is a hero or not because while he warned the military about the poison in the air-conditioners, he didn't apprehend Major Lee, who he was following in the first place. It is a very sad scene in the book because he is dying, and he barely realises he saved many people. Major Lee gets away and attempts to kill Major Hong-koo, a North Korean Major to frame South Korea and start war to prevent them from joining together. He is killed by a rifleman in a tower near by, who was given instructions by Director Paul Hood to shoot him on sight. ]]> 2018-10-30 12:38:17 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298451723 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298451838 2018-10-30 12:38:32 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298451838 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452033 This book uses Point of View in an interesting way in which it switches each chapter. It will switch from Donald following Major Lee in North Korea, to Hwan trying to get information from a North Korean spy, to Director Hood who has his own problems back in Washington state at the Op-Center.]]> 2018-10-30 12:38:50 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452033 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452288 This just looks like a normal table. That's because it is. But each individual leg has to be present in order for it to stand. Just like everyone in the Op-Center depends on each other to get things done. Director Hood could never find a slight blip in a video where a virus could slip in to a computer. But Matty could, even though he can't lead the whole operation. The Striker Team could infiltrate a North Korean missile base and stop several missiles from hitting Japan, but they wouldn't be able to find the code.]]> 2018-10-30 12:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452288 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452446 At first this point of view switching seemed annoying at times, because I would be invested in the plot of one character only to be brung to a event I had forgotten all about. In the end I did end up liking the idea, because it helps you understand the speed at which these events are happening, and allows the reader to get a mental picture that this all happens within two days.]]> 2018-10-30 12:39:40 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452446 you06150 https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452502 Lots of foreshadowing happens in this book with the constant changing of the point of view. These keep the reader interested in the book, and they want to read more to find out what happens. One example of foreshadowing is one in particular that was interesting to me "Two miles to the west, and a few feet underground, the last drum of death was inching its way to the north, carrying sleep of a different kind"(Clancy 289). This one really got to me as I read the book because I had no clue what it meant. Later, after finishing it I came back to this quote and I completely understood it.]]> 2018-10-30 12:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/you06150/Hahabooktime/wish/298452502
