This is Sexy Nomad's pothole of books she's read. She's still finding the time to complete her collection coz she believes that "Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers." --- Charles W. Eliot (1834 - 1926), The Happy Life, 1896

This may be the very first time that I have read an action-packed novel. I used to have biases about these kinds of stories because for one, they’re too macho for me and if you notice, I always prefer chick lits, fantasy adventure and the self-help kinds. I guess the closest that I have come to reading this type of book was when I used to read all of Sidney Sheldon’s novels back in High School (I’ve read them all…he’s one of my most favorites then and now…may he rest in peace) and Dan Brown’s Angel and Demons, Da Vinci Code, Deception Point and Digital Fortress (which I have read several years ago and have yet found the time to review here). Even these novels are not purely action material. There’s always a huge chunk of adult scenes, philosophy, and love angle to it. Mercenary Intent is my first EVER purely ation-packed novel but with a heart.
