The oldest member is S.Coups (born Aug 8, 1995). He was 19 years old when he made his debut with Seventeen. The youngest member (maknae) is Dino (born Feb 11, 1999). He was 15 years old at the time of Seventeen's debut. I really enjoyed Seventeen. I found I was hooked in relatively early and the held throughout. It is written in a fairly knowing style and with enough clues that you can figure out along the way. Agent 17 speaks no lines, but given how Sergei mistakes 47's voice for 17's, it is inferable he would've been voiced by David Bateson. But nobody gets to do this job for long.

Assassin Eighteen by John Brownlow | Waterstones
Je merkt dat de auteur weet hoe hij een scenario moet schrijven want dit boek voelde aan als een film/serie. Het is, eenmaal van start, heel beeldend en het tempo ligt mede door de korte hoofdstukken, hoog. Net zoals in films heb je misschien de neiging om even je wenkbrauwen te fronsen bij al die actie, maar de auteur komt er, dankzij zijn schrijfstijl, meer dan mee weg. The two have a few run-ins, neither getting the upper hand, until they have a frank discussion and realise perhaps they are both being played and the stakes are potentially world changing. Who is gaming who? Who can they trust? Will either of them actually live long enough to find out? S.Coups, born Choi Seung Cheol, is the official leader of SEVENTEEN. He is the oldest member and one of the main rappers. He is part of the HIP HOP sub-team. His name S.Coups comes from the combination of the first initial his real name Seungcheol and also of Seventeen (S), and the word COUPS from the French word coup d'etat. S.Coups holds the official position of leader in the group. S.Coups and and Vernon are the main rappers of the group. DK and Seungkwan are the main vocalists. Hoshi and Dino are the main dancers. Seungkwan is one of the main vocalists in the group. He is also a good rapper. He has a strong attachment to his hometown, Jeju Island. He has, in fact, a Jeju accent. One of his dreams was to become a radio DJ.Recommended Reads about Race, Racism, and Demarginalizing History - Necessary Non-fiction You Should Read for Life-changing Insights and Impact Keeps readers on the edge of their seats through a roller-coaster ride of high-octane action that builds to an explosive finale' SUNDAY EXPRESS Sixteen people have done this job before me.

The CWA was first founded in 1953 by John Creasey and is one of the UK's most prominent societies. The awards started in 1955 with the first one going to Poldark author Winston Graham. The CWA Daggers are synonymous with quality crime writing and this is the 70th year of the awards being held. The Chair of the CWA, and LoveReading Summer Guest Editor, Vaseem Khan said about the anniversary "This year's CWA Daggers, in the CWA’s 70th jubilee year, continued the tradition of recognising both the broad appeal of the genre, and the wide spectrum of writers now operating within it, showcasing the full creative range of modern crime writing." Heading to Renaissance Florence, DV Bishop was awarded the CWA Historical Dagger for The Darkest Sin. Praised by judges for being 'gripping to the end' this atmospheric historical thriller is a sequel to City of Vengeance, first released in 2021 and forms part of the Cesare Aldo series. When Seventeen is tasked with finding and killing him, the mission goes awry, and the hunter becomes the hunted. But there’s another layer to the story and a nice (though not really surprising) twist waiting for both readers and Seventeen. Woozi is the leader of the vocal sub-unit. Despite being the shortest member at 164 cm (5'5"), he is also the most gluttonous member of Seventeen and basically eats a lot without gaining much weight. Jun, born Wen Junhui, is from Guandong China. He started as a child actor in China. He learned martial arts when he was a kid. He sometimes can look like a mannequin because of his body proportions (tall, long arms and legs, and wide shoulders).Wonwoo is one of the sub-rappers of SEVENTEEN. He is part of the HIP HOP team. When he was in middle, he had an interest to learn to play the guitar so he joined a music academy with his friend as a hobby. Pledis Entertainment was, coincidentally, holding an audition there and Wonwoo passed. His birthday is also on the 17th.

Of course, a spy thriller demands action and Seventeen certainly doesn't disappoint. There's a brief but pivotal scene in Berlin's Tiergarten which is surely a playful homage to classic Cold War espionage fiction. However, he makes mistakes in Berlin and his shortcomings raise alarm bells with his boss, known only as Handler. What follows is a personal confrontation as he hunts down Sixteen, knowing that more than one person is waiting for a moment of weakness that will allow them to become Eighteen. Without giving anything away. I enjoyed the introduction of other characters and the wry interplay between them. Action thriller fans who want an intense thrill-ride will be more than satisfied but the witty dialogue and emotional scenes mean this isn't mindlessly frantic and instead the storyline is intriguingly suspenseful. Meanwhile, the personal toll of a job that requires a person to become a shadow is examined too and there's a vulnerability to 'Jones' which provides a refreshing counterpoint to his undoubted proficiency and masterful survival skills.But the sniper isn’t the hardened killer he was expecting. It’s Mireille – a mysterious, silent child, abandoned in the woods with instructions to pull the trigger. The story is brilliantly crafted and narrated with dry humour that had me laughing out loud one minute and my heart in my throat the next. It’s the first time that I can say this about a thriller!
