Series Fans Have Been Loving This One James Ellsworth In this outing, Scot Harvath and various of his team members undertake a variety of missions in a short period of time. I LOVE the extended combat sequence in the Libyan desert. Problems keep popping up and good solutions are found on the fly. A multi-national wave of coordinated terrorism holds the novel together. Readers will get what sounds like a reasonable view of how different nations, criminal entities and terrorist entities work against the forces of law and order. Characterization is as good as it needs to be and most characters have interesting quirks that differentiate one highly-trained . AvidReader said Edge of your seat reading.. Brad Thor's books keep you from the first page till the end. I love the way he describes the events it feels so real. The characters are always so strong. Each determined in their cause. As always looking forward to his next book. He never disappoints. Think you.. John C. Maldaner III said Did this just happen, or is this only fiction?. As fresh as today's news headlines, I couldn't put this down! So believable you'll wonder if the MSM just didn't tell you this has happened. Great suspense and leaves you anticipating the next episode. Loved it!
