Publisher's summary

When the 14-year-old daughter of a British government minister leaves the country to join ISIS, MI7 dispatches a cohort of agents to Turkey to intercept her en route. However, maybe not everything is as it seems. How to explain, for example, her long-standing prior antipathy to Islamofascism? Her sudden conversion to radicalism on the very day of her departure? The fact that there is neither sight nor sign of her in Istanbul - or elsewhere?

Agent John Mordred is assigned to investigate. Soon, he has theories of his own, and they fly in the face of the prevailing wisdom. Along the way, he is forced to face an impossible question. How to account for the appeal, to some British citizens, of an organisation that practices genocide, mass torture, and the reduction of women to sex slaves? Barbarism seems to be banging on the doors of civilisation again, in a way unseen since the 1930s. Yet for every evil Mordred uncovers, a counterbalancing good appears. His quest leads him from London to the shores of East Africa, and to a confrontation with the all-pervading power of ideological malice.

Encounter With ISIS

This was a tough book to review for me. I didn't dislike the story. The underlying plot was interesting and kept me wanting to know what the end result was going to be. I kept getting hung up on the interconnecting characters and their communication with each other. There was banter that didn't seem to further the storyline and would have seemed forced if encountering it in daily life. I got lost a few times because of this. I was eventually able to separate the two parts of the book so I could enjoy the plot. I am not sure if I will try to pick up the other books in the series or not.

A story set in today's Britain

Encounter with ISIS: John Mordred, Book 3.The series has developed not only in depth but writing style and it has improved the readability of the books immensely.
John Mordred is not James Bond and he knows this but that makes his character more appealing.
It is a great fun read/listen and very good entertainment.
Narration is good.
And I highly recommend this book and the series.
