Executed (Extracted Trilogy book 2) by R. R. Haywood

If you haven't read the first book in this series, don't read this one. You will not understand what is going on. The characters in this book are well-developed (Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta come across as real, the same as the heroes from the previous book.) except Mother--her reactions to the shit going down (in the first half) were unbelievable especially considering her position. 

This book acts like most middle books, it's a massive lead-up and setup for the final book. The sex scenes were dull and possibly page filler, one was a great lead-up to Delta being extracted.

Mr. Haywood's humor is spot on. 

In this book, the plot is simple, save Roland's son, who is the inventor of The Blue (the time travel device). They succeed but the British special forces managed to get their hands on a blueprint for the time machine and build their own. The US needs the UK to get its hands on the machine itself and as it is a danger they show they are willing to drop nuclear weapons on the UK. Then a host of other countries all point nuclear weapons are each other.  

The second part of the mission (plot) is to stop the world ending in 2111.  

The group's new leader, introduced at the end of book 1, devises a plan to save the world. 

I enjoyed the Rocky training montage. That was fun. The running, shooting, weapons, and holographic simulations were great. 

I enjoyed this book so much, I went straight into book three.
