About this ebook

MURDER, TORTURE, AND VENGEANCE COLLIDE TO THREATEN THE HIGHEST ECHELONS OF POWER.

"Startlingly dark" -San Francisco/Sacramento Book Reviews
"A labyrinth of highly charged action" -Tome Tender
"A plot that never stops" -ForeWord Reviews


Evil is not born of madness, but madness of evil. Follow a rogue CIA agent who uncovers a shocking conspiracy deep in the intelligence community. But a shadow follows the investigation: a killer bent on a revenge so terrible, it is only matched by the crimes committed against him. In the end, no one escapes unscathed, no beliefs will go unchallenged, and no wrong will escape the terrible, final, and extraordinary retribution.
"Stebbins nails it with this book. Just when you think you have the recipe down for international thrillers, an author upends it and creates multifaceted characters and a plot that never stops. Intrigue, murder, ethics, religion, romance, an international setting...the author has packed everything" -ForeWord Reviews


"A fast-paced international thriller...the twists and turns of plot continue right up to the last emotionally-charged paragraph" -Midwest Book Review

"An addictive page turner and heart pounding thrill ride... an absolute must-read. You won´t be able to put it down." -Internet Review of Books

    Extraordinary Retribution is just one of those books that makes you feel like you can imagine everything going on. When reading this action filled story, I coul not help but feel like I was watching a movie. If you love action and suspense this is definately a great book for you. I really enjoyed it, from start to finish!

    What a great fast-paced action novel! I really enjoyed Houston and Lopez's journey about getting the truth behind all the recent deaths and the killers that were on the loose! There is an underlying reason that this government agent and the brother of a killed soldier are being chased, and a story that no one wants anyone to know about! I loved reading their close mishaps with getting caught or possibly killed! Lopez, a priest, was the last person you would suspect ending up involved in such a situation, but due to unforeseen circumstances he has no choice but to continue his journey to find his brother's killers and the reason why, with Houston by his side. I didn't want to put the book down because there was always something going on! There were twists and turns that I didn't see coming and I was constantly wondering what would happen and if they would get killed along their journey. However, if you loved fast-paced, intense action novels this is a good read for you!

    I have read several other books by this talented writer and was not disappointed by this book. This story is an almost non-stop action adventure. It is a pure adrenaline rush from cover to cover. There is a bit of a political bent to this story which may bother some people. The story casts a bad light on the federal government and the clandestine doings of the CIA. My opinion is that the author is sending a subtle message that the current administration is acting in a secretive manner in which this type of action is possible. This book may be a treatise that the federal government has become totally non-transparent and the American people need to understand that. Again, this is what I got from the book and may not be the intention of the author.A bit of a warning to those squeamish readers - there is a fair amount of gore and graphic violence. To be fair to the author, the violence is important to fully develop the "Wraith" character. We gain an insight into the thoughts of this "bad" character which is the driving influence in the story. You hopefully will be disturbed by this evil character but you will slowly learn and understand his mission.The bad aside, let's look at the other characters. It is a bit amazing that the author can generate such action and a evil character while developing a number of other characters that get the reader rooting strongly for their roles in the story.I enjoyed the pace and writing style. If you enjoy fast paced books with extreme action, this book is for you.

    Another excellent novel from a very good author who is now definetly on my reading list. The authors attention to little details are great, which make the characters and scenarios he is describing more believable and add essence and substance to the storyline.Again as in the first novel the title cleverly describes the plot and sets the scene for a page turning roller coaster ride where two different sets of characters are looking for revenge for different reasons. It is very easy for an author to write a novel with the same chatacters from a very good first novel but this author has created two more which the reader will fall in love with and follow their journey and share their fears and success. The authors research and knowledge shine through in abundance and he also uses two people from different ends of the spectrum who will live and fight for a cause they deeply care about.With short sharp chapters packed with action and very strong emotions means it is an easy read and if you need to recap it doesnt take alot of effort. Having a very creative mind the author binds the excellent characters from his first novel into this storyline to add a twist which will keep the reader guessing.Excellent thriller with mystery and intrigue involved which make for a very good read.

    I won Extraordinary Retribution through Goodreads. I’m very appreciative for the effort the author made in getting this book to me so quickly.Generally, action isn’t a favourite genre of mine. But Extraordinary Retribution was a pretty good read. Incredibly fast-paced and engrossing, an interesting and well described plot, and the characters were easily emotionally accessible. I look forward to reading more by Stebbins in the future.
