Championship Review

4/24 American Assassin vs. Kill Shot - WINNER: American Assassin

Final Four Review

4/18 American Assassin vs. Lethal Agent - WINNER: American Assassin

4/19 Kill Shot vs. Transfer Of Power - - WINNER: Kill Shot

Why Should You Vote For Transfer Of Power: A Fan’s Perspective (by Ernie @emcvay38 on Twitter)

“Transfer Of Power should win because it was the first Vince Flynn book I read.  I immediately was hooked on the series.  The large bold letters of the title is in sharp contrast to the grayish cover and it just jumps out and says, ‘Read me.’  Having the White House grayed out and faded seems symbolic of what will take place inside the executive mansion during the story.”

Quarterfinal Review

4/10 Transfer Of Power vs. Protect And Defend - WINNER: Transfer Of Power

4/11 American Assassin vs. Executive Power - - WINNER: American Assassin

4/12 Kill Shot vs. Consent To Kill - WINNER: KILL SHOT

4/13 Lethal Agent vs. The Last Man - WINNER: Lethal Agent

Why Should You Vote For The Last Man: A Fan’s Perspective (by Julie @Juliewa43117224 on Twitter)

Readers pick up books based on attraction and how the title defines the book. The Last Man has the most eye-catching coloration. The solitary figure matches the title and symbolism, as I believe this is Vince Flynn’s last book. So the title is fitting. Liked other stories better but we’re picking covers and the best of the lot for color, title and symbolism is The Last Man.

Round II Review

3/27 Lethal Agent vs. Memorial Day - WINNER: LETHAL AGENT

3/28 Red War vs. American Assassin - WINNER: AMERICAN ASSASSIN

3/29 Transfer Of Power vs. Act Of Treason - WINNER: TRANSFER OR POWER

3/30 Executive Power vs. Extreme Measures - WINNER: EXECUTIVE POWER

Why Should You Vote For Extreme Measures : A Fan’s Perspective (by Angela @PeculiarAngela on Twitter)

“It subtly encompasses what the Rapp series is about--the color gold hinting at golden hearts, the blurred blackness showing the good vs. evil dilemma, and the building showing that America is never about one person...America is strengthened by many good souls. Rapp always has good men and women on his side...and this cover reminds me of how much stronger America is together.”


3/31 Protect And Defend vs. Pursuit Of Honor - WINNER: PROTECT AND DEFEND

 

4/1 Kill Shot vs. Enemy Of The State - WINNER: KILL SHOT

4/2 Order To Kill vs. Consent To Kill - WINNER: CONSENT TO KILL

Why Should You Vote For Consent To Kill: A Fan’s Perspective (by Damon @drakedwon on Twitter)
“Probably biased because it is my all time favorite Mitch Rapp thriller, and because I have an autographed copy.  That being said, it is just classic looking and stands the test of time.”

4/3 The Last Man vs. The Third Option - WINNER: THE LAST MAN

Why Should You Vote For The Third Option: A Fan’s Perspective (by Janice @JaniceGuitreau on Twitter)

It tells the story by looking at the cover. It includes the CIA, Washington; the title suggests a dilemma & a solution. The water of the Mall running off the book to infinity suggests a never ending number of problems that will be solved by our capable hero, Mitch Rapp and his friends.
