Publisher's Summary
The year is 2018 - a highly volatile nuclear world. Israel has obliterated the deep underground nuclear weapons facility built by Iran. The United States has destroyed the nuclear facility of a defiant North Korea. The Russians have upped the stakes in the latest world power-play - cyber warfare - to reduce the United States to helplessness: a three-strike missile attack on the National Security Agency at Fort Mead, Maryland, while simultaneously jamming the top-secret electronic access key to America’s nuclear launch system - the nuclear football. If successful, Russia would blow the United States off the nuclear map.
Meanwhile the British Royal Navy, formerly the most powerful in the world, is rapidly crumbling, leaving the United States without its main deep-sea ally at a time when they’re needed most. As this geopolitical battle comes to light behind closed doors dealings and dark secrets, it is up to Mossad spymaster, codenamed the 'Golan', to avert the Russian scheme, and there is only one man he in turn can trust to get the job done: US Navy Seal Mack Bedford.
It’s up to Mack Bedford to devise a plan to stop the Russians before they and their cyber weaponry reach the Chinese border - the launch site of their master plan. And with the entire country’s fate in his hands, Mack and his hard-trained, one of a kind SEAL Team 10 must not, cannot fail.

Paige De Kalb, TX, United States 11-27-12 Member Since 2007Listening to books is the way I separate from the stress of being an attorney. I enjoy fiction, mystery thrillers, an occasional romance, and books about cutting edge medicine and science. I was a History major so that is always interesting too.

Which character – as performed by Joe Barrett – was your favorite?Hard not to like a Seal
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?No.
Any additional comments?Good plot and ideas for future partners to fight what is already global insanity

"Are the Soviets back in the Game?"
Patrick is back with a great book. Only problem is that it went by to quickly. His character of Mack Bedford teamed up with Arnold Morgan made for an interesting plot. I wonder what the Irish would really think about becoming out 51st state. A nuclear strike on Fort Meade Md. is a chilling possibility. Look forward to Patrick's next book

"Where did the action go?"
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?Te original narrator for all of the Arnold Morgan books. He makes Morgan sound like a wimp. More action and less useless background.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?The basic plot is good but how the story is told is lacking.
How could the performance have been better?Better Narrator!!!!!
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?Not many
Any additional comments?No, I think I have summed it up.

"Good story, but the narrator was challenging"
Where does Power Play rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?The story was really good, just as I had susptected it would be. Unfortunately the narrator challenged me to stay in the story. It was simply things, pronuciations, accents, etc that bothered me. Especially pronuciations. Seriously, if you're going to read a book, you had better understand what you're saying because I sincerely believe that the author did.
