BOOK REVIEW: The Overlord Protocol (Mark Walden) Hive book 2

Book: The Overlord Protocol

Author: Mark Walden

Rating: 6.5/10


It's not easy being a part of G.L.O.V.E,the global league of villainous enterprises, but It's getting harder for Nero the headmaster of Hive and one of the most senior members  as new recruits threaten the delicate balance and start openly opposing him. One of these people is Cypher, the man is a mystery no one bar Number One has any idea of his true identity and he is constantly seeking to undermine Nero at every opportunity.


Meanwhile Wing has a problem. He has just been informed of his fathers death. Now he travels to Japan for the funeral accompanied by Otto and guarded by Raven and 2 highly trained GLOVE agents.

Suddenly the safe house they are staying in is under attack and slowly they are forced up to the roof. One agent is killed and Raven is missing as dozens of assassins swarm through the building.

On the Roof the other Agent is killed then the identity of the person co-ordinating the attack of them is revealed. It's Cypher!

He climbs out of a helicopter and shoots Wing  then leaves with the body. Otto is facing the remaining assassins alone.

Raven appears and in a difficult battle defeats the assassins and her and Otto escape.

Now they must perform a HALO( High Altitude Low Orbit) jump into a hole in the jungle, stop Cypher  and halt his assassins unstoppable assault on HIVE.

Filled with challenges,traitors, and people who just can't seem to be killed, this book is very good for a adventurous read.



This book is a improvement on the first one and the plot leaves you confused in some places while filling you in in others the whole way through. It's a good read and has plenty of action and surprises to keep the reader interested. I would say that this book would be better for teenagers and kids than adults as It's not a majorly challenging read and isn't overly complicated. that being said even adults would enjoy these books as a change

Hope you found this review helpful,
