Every year I have to manage a little bit better. I don't have problems with big ideas for stories, but after 20-something books, sometimes it's hard to come up with a new scenario that you haven't written about before. I struggle with coming up with new fresh stuff. Ryan Gosling plays the highly skilled mercenary, CIA operative Court Gentry, aka Sierra Six. As he becomes a target for the CIA, Six finds himself being hunted by his old colleagues, as CIA handler Lloyd Hansen (Chris Evans) places an enormous bounty on his head and sends a fleet of international assassins to kill him. Despite sharing a close bond with Fitzroy and Claire, the two never refer to Sierra Six by his real name. Instead, they opt for the code name assigned to the man who joined the Sierra Program and became Six in the process. However, as the film’s opening minutes reveal, Sierra Six’s real name is Court Gentry. Given that the Sierra Agents do not have any public records and are practically ghosts in the public eye, it is understandable that Gentry does not go by his real name. Why Was Court Gentry in Prison? Welcome to my Kinktober collection for 2022! Chapters should be added everyday and are of varying length. Not all fandoms have been listed and kinks are subject to change. Trigger warnings will be placed at the beginning of the chapter when necessary. Please, PLEASE NO MINORS. This is not negotiable. I hope you enjoy my work and happy Kinktober! 😈 Language: English Words: 6,712 Chapters: 13/31 Comments: 5 Kudos: 288 Bookmarks: 26 Hits: 24,613 It’s the first time in his life that Six has had any kind of power," says Gosling. ‘He was powerless as a child to a very domineering father, he was powerless to the prison system, and then powerless to the CIA. So, even though the stakes are heightened, his story is very relatable because all he wants is to have some kind of control over his own life."

"But it stops being a job and becomes almost uncomfortably personal. Whereas Six gets no sense of satisfaction from his work, it’s very personal for Hansen. Eventually he abandons the pretence of it being a job and becomes obsessed with beating Six." I am going to be really sad when this series comes to an end. It has been a roller coaster ride that has provided so much entertainment value. At least, there is also a movie coming out that will finally give me the chance to see how Mark envisioned the character to be in real life. Hopefully, there are also more books to come.

Sierra Six

There is, alas, also loss. That loss is often the most compelling - and indeed, most propelling - event for the character. While some may argue that Court's loss in this book is unrealistic and too brief to be meaningful, I'll say that it is sometimes the briefest of connections whose severance wounds us most deeply. Military.com: The Gray Man has taken a long and winding road to the screen. Now you've finally got a movie coming out this summer. What's that experience been like?

Sierra Six is the 11th book in Mark Greaney’s The Gray Man Series. As with all of the other books that I have read in the series, I was not disappointed. It had everything that I love. There was action, adventure, guns, fights, more guns, bombs, etc. This book was a wild ride. The best part about this book was that I finally found out more about Courtland Gentry/The Gray Man’s past. Are you here to kill me, because if you know anything about me, you know they’re not paying you enough to do this.” He scrutinized your expression, and you didn’t think there was anything on your face that he could decipher from it, nothing that you didn’t want him to see. “Something about you tells me that it won’t make a difference.”Greaney deftly jumps between present day and twelve years prior, giving fans of the Gray Man what he went through in joining Golf Sierra and his current op. I do not say this as hyperbole: Sierra Six is the best thing Greaney has written. We see Gentry as never before, and while it isn't an origin story per se, it is the defining moment of who he is today. What I don't think I've ever read, though, is a book that so effortlessly and (more importantly) readably (is this a word?) combines both an origin story and a current story told in an alternating fashion, where both parts, the past and the present, have very real stakes and are both incredibly well done - to the point where either of them, on their own, would be an excellent book, but where together, they are even better than a single book on each would be. Before we go on: if you're a reader jumping in at this point in the series, do yourself a favor and go to book one and begin there. About half of the things in this book will not make a lot of sense, or will appear to have no bearing at all on the other half of the book. Besides, it's a great series and a lot of fun to read. What I will say is this: I've tons of books. If you're reading this on Goodreads, you can see the numbers, and these are only the things I have read since joining Goodreads plus the things i could remember reading prior to that time. The actual number is likely twice, perhaps twice and a half that. Why do I mention this?

As usual, we get to see that Court Gentry, The Gray Man, is a very complicated character. In the past, he is not yet as hard as he will become. There are still moments of vulnerability that he shows that just melted my heart. He is not used to working with anybody else yet - and he finds that he likes being a part of a team. We get to see more emotion from him than usual, and of course, I loved every minute of it. Knowing what is going to happen to him - what the team is going to do to him....well, it just makes everything worse and it breaks my heart all over again. Gentry is trained up as just an operations officer, but he came into the agency with the skills that he'd learned through law enforcement and military training at his father's firearm school. He comes into the agency with all this knowledge and got two years of very intensive training before they put him out in the field. I did have something happen in this book that I can honestly say has not happened in the past. I had a moment of being pulled out of the story when we find out how Appleton achieved his goal concerning Court. If it was that easy, why in the world wouldn't the evil Suzanne Brewer have done that already? But, then I decided to forget it and move on. Seriously, there was too much going on for me to dwell on anything bad.When it comes to the military, I get stuff wrong. But I also have a cadre of people that I will reach out to about one thing or another. 'Sierra Six' is my 21st published novel since 2009. It's funny that, as I get further along into my career, I do find that the technical aspects of it are a little bit less important. Because I want to create the tension and tell the story the way I want to tell it.
