Hailed as the finest combat aviation novel to emerge from the Vietnam War, Flight of the Intruder spent 28 weeks on the New York Times hardcover best-seller list and became one of the top-20 best-selling first novels of all time. An instant classic, the book was translated into more than 20 languages and made into a major motion picture. Its hero, Jake Grafton, became a household name and the star of many more Coonts’ best-sellers. Without question, the strength of the book lies in its flying scenes when Jake Grafton straps himself into the cockpit of his A-6 Intruder.

Armored cars, burner phones, top-notch weaponry, and top-secret missions - this is the life of today's private military contractor. Like author Simon Chase, many PMCs were once the world's top military operatives, and since retiring from outfits like US Navy SEAL TEAM Six and the UK's Special Boat Service, they have devoted their lives to executing missions too sensitive for the government to acknowledge. Chase reveals here for the first time the operations too hazardous and politically volatile to be officially sanctioned by his employers.

Brilliant but borderline non-fiction!
Would you consider the audio edition of Command Authority to be better than the print version?
Don't know.. didn't read it
Who was your favorite character and why?
Jack Ryan Jr. Totally in control and cool
What about Lou Diamond Phillips’s performance did you like?
The best performance I have ever heard on an audio book.. I can't believe how well he did so many (12) different characters in at least 3 dialects
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
too long but I couldn't wait to continue
Any additional comments?
This book is almost identical to what is really happening in Russia and with its leader Putin. It is chilling and eerily similar. Great story and well written

Outstanding performance by Mr Phillips.
I don't normally write reviews, but I was blown away by the narration by Lou Diamond Phillips. I have enjoyed many of his acting performances, particularly his role in the Longmire TV series, but this is the first time I have listened to a book narrated by him.
The storyline switches back and forth from 30 years prior then back to present day and entertwines them very well telling how they relate. Mr Phillips characterizations are excellent, with the different accents amazing.
I look forward to more of Mr Phillips narrations.

Talk about ripped from the headlines!
If you could sum up Command Authority in three words, what would they be?
Too close to reality.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Command Authority?
It certainly kept my attention! It was so true to life, I realize it was fiction, but not too far off our current reality.
What does Lou Diamond Phillips bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I don't know, I just read the whole think on Kindle.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It was definitely suspenseful. I thought the President's son's activity was a bit over the top,but who cares, when reading fiction we should be able to "suspend disbelief"
Any additional comments?
Right after I finished reading I turned on the news and saw the book being shown in real life with the blazzing fires from the protesters and the warring in Urkraine with their people fighting to keep their freedom instead of being sucked back into Russian style of life.

A Perfect First Jack Ryan Book for the Rookies
I write this review to encourage people who have never read/listened to a Clancy to get this. It has a great narrative linking past to present. Clancy was spot on in light of recent events with his forecast of the situation. Uncanny. So sad this is his last.
I have read all the Jack Ryan's.....this is a great one to start on now...

Excellent!
Great story. Kept me engaged. If you like Tom Clancy you will enjoy the story and revealing of Jack's past.

Fantastic
Best story in a long time. This book is a throwback to Rainbow Six book era. Best of modern day "Clancy"
