Irony.

Remember my retro review from a couple of weeks ago? Here, let me refresh:

Okay, this is a review I wrote for the book Memorial Day by Vince Flynn. You can find it on the page for MD on barnesandnoble.com.

This book is entertaining enough, but there is nothing about it that makes it stand out. The whole terrorist-with-a-nuke storyline was done better in Tom Clancy's novel (not the movie, the novel), The Sum of All Fears, and in the second season of the television show 24

Here's irony for you. Author Vince Flynn has been added to the writing staff of the fifth season of 24. Uh-huh.... If copying the show is all it takes to get hired, I should have a job as soon as they read the first ep of 24AU!
