My first five-star book for a while for a work which, while not in my most favoured genre, pressed all the right buttons and then some for what it is. So much so I actually enjoyed it.Remote Control is a new kind of thriller, gritty, vivid and menacing with a pace that never lets up. Other thriller writers talk the talk.

Another book McNab wrote is called Seven Troop. It is about a unit of soldiers with a relationship so close, they are like brothers. The action scenes were reasonably well done, though not as potent as I would have liked. Some of the situations were optimistic, with the girl at times way too close to the action. But I know that's pretty much the dilemma of the book, and that McNab was looking for ways of skirting that fine line between suspense and plausibility.a b c Hanks, Robert (19 November 2004).

My husband would want me to say here, “It all contributes to believability. You can see exactly how he does it. Nothing is easy, nothing is clean. Just like in real life.” The army career of Andy McNab seemed to overshadow all of his past failures in life. Although once a criminal, he became a key member of the military. McNab was stationed in South Armagh of Northern Ireland during the years 1977 to 1978. By 1979 he was promoted to the position of Lance Corporal.
