Featured review
How cruel the quest of power can be.
President wants education reform bill on floor in hundreds as he promised on his inauguration day and Francis promise to deliver this, but as he decided to severe punishment for those who betrayed him, for what he was promised and now he has decided to pick them one by one let them see how cruel the quest of power can be. Here he just wants to minimize the distance between him and the source of power as present situation says. In this episode Francis begins necessary dirty moves. Michael ken nominee of secretary of state Francis framed him as controversial and deceptive choices of secretary of state. In order to do this he use Washington heralds ambitious reporter Zoe Barnes (Kate Mara) and she gains reputation.
On the other Claire Underwood (Robin Wright) is also making tough choices.
Remy Danton (Mahershala Ali) lobbyist work for corporation tries to remember Francis that there are promises and millions on board. Before corporation takes their support back he has to sort out his situation. Francis says that he has no respect for those who choose money over power. Almost every person in the city makes this mistake where everything is about power.
I enjoyed episode two. British author Michael Dobbs has created House cards (Novel) political thriller published in 1989. It was sort of no.1 bestseller later this book has a television and radio adaptation which was aired on BBC. I literally have no experience of these previews adaptations HOC but novel format is looking reasonably interesting to me.
