Description

Michael Knight and KITT – everyone’s ultimate dream car – return to action in this high-octane thriller, updated with tomorrow’s tech to combat the threats of today.

Secret agent Michael Knight just wants to take his girlfriend Katherine out for a night on the town. The bad news is that Katherine is also a brilliant scientist whom he’s been assigned to protect, along with her top-secret “Project: Rider” – not a good combination for a romantic evening! When a team of mercenaries crashes their date, it’s up to Michael and the mysterious Bishop to keep Katherine safe and the project under wraps. What follows is a high-speed race through the streets and mountains of California in which loyalties are tested, alliances betrayed, and a global conspiracy is revealed. And, of course, at least one incredible talking car! All the turbo-charged thrill of the classic TV series is back in this high-tech spy-fi adventure!

Preston W, Reviewer

Before this book, I had no clue about anything Knight Rider, except that David Hasselhoff was in a tv show awhile back and that it had a car named Kitt. This origin story is a cool spy mystery that works well with the setting. The art fits the book, and the writing kept me interested since I finished the book in one day. For those looking for a nice spy story with good story and action, pick this up!
