I did read Point of Impact and watch the movie Shooter. I don't remember which order. The book was better in my opinion, but I like to read. I can't think of 1 instance where a book I read was worse than the movie. That doesn't mean there hasn't been one, I just can't think of it right now. Some that come to mind are: The Searchers, Lonesome Dove. I mean who ever wrote a book about a movie? I bought I, Sniper and I'm glad I did, but I will read Last of The Breed 2-3 times before I go back to I, Sniper. Now that would be a movie. The Breed.


Sorry for any bad spelling or grammer.
