Agency Rules – Khalid Muhammad

 

Agency Rules is a fast paced action thriller set in one of the most dangerous places in the world, Pakistan. The author, Khalid Muhammad, admits that he is a fan of espionage novels and admires heroes like Jason Bourne, Jack Ryan and James Bond. His main protagonist, Kamal Khan, has all the characteristics of a spy hero. He is physically fit, an accomplished sniper, a good listener, fast on his head and toes, and possesses a kind of charm that ladies find irresistible. Despite all of these, he is unsure about himself in certain circumstances. And this is one of the things that I really like about his character because he does not come across as a superman, in spite of the superhuman conditions he finds himself in. This is a material that spy novels should be made of. With the author’s descriptive writing style and the story's incredibly plausible twists and turns, one cannot help but eagerly anticipate Kamal’s exploits, page after page, until the novel ends.
