History YMMV / MatthewReilly

** ''Scarecrow'': [[BigBad Jonathan James Killian III]] is the head of defense contractor Axon Corp., as well as part of [[TheIlluminati Majestic-12]], a cabal of [[CorruptCorporateExecutive billionaire industrialists]] who dominate global political and economic policy, and plot to fake several nuclear attacks in order to escalate TheWarOnTerror into a second UsefulNotes/ColdWar, as well as to [[WarForFunAndProfit create more business for themselves]]. Fascinated by anarchy and its results, Killian plans to make the targets think they were struck by their most hated enemies; this included China and Taiwan, and India and Pakistan. Even after the other members deny permission, he secretly changes the missiles being constructed to carry out his plan, to be capped off with a supposed Israeli weapon, with an American nuclear warhead, to strike Mecca on the start of Ramadan, which would spark worldwide vengeance by Muslims against American citizens and tip the balance into global anarchy. He also makes a habit of trapping people--including another Majestic-12 member--in a SharkPool equipped with a guillotine, to see who will kill themselves or each other to spare themselves pain, and after capturing [[spoiler:Scarecrow's love interest Libby Gant, he has her beheaded to make Scarecrow want vengeance and distract him from stopping the plot, which nearly drives him to suicide instead]]. Even after Scarecrow comes back, helps stop the attacks and confronts Killian, Killian gloats that [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim he will have won even if Scarecrow kills him]].

* {{HSQ}}: Reilly has a contractual obligation to keep it high, and takes it UpToEleven ''very'' frequently. Rule of thumb: if something awesome isn't happening, it's because they're reloading.

* AcceptableTargets: Judging from ''The Great Zoo of China'', Reilly ''really'' isn't a fan of the Chinese government. Just the government, thought; civilians are treated far more sympathetically.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical: Reilly has consistently stated that he ''never'' deliberately invokes a political position with his work, but it doesn't take much digging to figure out whose side he's on.

** ''Area 7'': [[InsaneAdmiral US Air Force Lieutenant General Charles Samson Russell]], call-sign "[[BigBad Caesar]]", is secretly the head of the elite 7th Special Operations Squadron [[SociopathicSoldier soldiers at Area 7]], a secret base, as well as a top member of [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain the Brotherhood, a secret racist society in the US Air Force]]. [[DiabolicalMastermind Putting into motion]] a plan he had been [[CrazyPrepared working on for 15 years]], when the US President visits Area 7, Caesar activates a transmitter attached to the President's heart. If the President's heart stops, or if he fails to match his palm print to the nuclear football every 90 minutes, over a dozen bombs located in the airports of a dozen US cities--including Washington, DC; Los Angeles; New York City; and Chicago--will go off. Willing to give the President a "final chance", Caesar has 50 7th Squadron soldiers face off against the President's Secret Service detail, which, unbeknownst to Caesar, also includes [[TheHero US Marine captain Shane Michael Schofield]], call-sign "Scarecrow", and several of his troops. After much action, the President explains how Caesar was supposedly put to death for a treasonous plot, tells about the Brotherhood, and explains how the cities that would be destroyed would all be Northern cities, as "Caesar wants an America without the North". In addition, Caesar would have the Sinovirus, a Chinese bioweapon, as well as the vaccine, which was the main purpose of Area 7. It is later revealed, even when the Sinovirus is no longer an issue, that Caesar also had a transmitter attached to his own heart, and is planning to die, [[DeadManSwitch which would set off the bombs]].
