Tipping Point, Book 10

De: John O'Brien

Narrado por: Mark Gagliardi

The Allied forces in Korea are reeling from North Korea’s surprise attack. The air supremacy General Carswell holds over the theater are the only things holding back the surge of enemy mechanized units swallowing up vast tracts of the central region. The ground supply routes to the east are threatened. And with the conflict with China, there are few reserves that can be spared for the Korean Peninsula.

In Taiwan, Chinese advances are within miles of Taipei. More and more American and Taiwanese forces are fed into the line holding China from pushing into the capital. The carriers of the United States remain away from the action, but there is a plan in place. Will it be enough to allow the naval task forces to finally engage?

And the Middle East is again heating up, with Iran again vowing Israel’s destruction. With the United States struggling in their war with China, Iran sees an opportunity to strike without interference. And with the Russian Federation poised to attack Ukraine, will the hostilities spill over into a global conflict?

Details that mimic current events

These modern day conflict novels are enjoyable for me. I like the details of current weaponry and the fictional use of them and the possibilities of the outcome from using them. This book develops the characters well and brings them into the story showing the human effects of these conflicts.

Typical John O’Brien.

Same as it ever was, same story for the first third seemed to be a lot of unrelated and not really necessary Wonky Military Jargon

a plausible fictional account of conflict until the end.

at times gripping. the basic outline of the story was good. the insertion of detail concerning the weapons on a repetitive basis was unnecessary. the ending seemed abrupt and not believable.
