Mitch Rapp After Vince Flynn: Evolution or Dilution?

Mitch Rapp was built as a blunt instrument — direct, violent, and unapologetically decisive. Under Vince Flynn, that simplicity was the appeal.

Since Flynn’s death and Kyle Mills taking over, the series has evolved. Some readers praise the continuity. Others argue something essential was lost.

So I’m curious:

Is Mitch Rapp defined by character, or by authorial voice?

Has the post-Flynn era added depth, or softened the edge that made the series distinctive?

Can a vigilante antihero remain credible in a world that’s politically and morally more complex than when the series began?

Would love to hear from readers who’ve followed the full arc.
