Resumen del Editor

In Ted Bell's latest pulse-pounding and action-packed tour de force, Alex Hawke must face a global nightmare of epic proportions.

As this political crisis plays out, Russia gains a new leader. Not just a president, but a new tsar, a signal to the world that the old, imperial Russia is back and plans to have her day. And in America, a mysterious killer, known only as Happy the Baker, brutally murders an innocent family and literally flattens the small Midwestern town they once called home. Just a taste, according to the new tsar, of what will happen if America does not back down.

Onto this stage must step Alex Hawke, espionage agent extraordinaire and the only man, both Americans and the Brits agree, who can stop the absolute madness born and bred inside the modern police state of Vladimir Putin's "New Russia".

Take another thrill ride with Alex Hawke.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"As always, Bell pulls out all the stops with terrific action scenes, fiendish murders, diabolical villains, dramatic rescues and all the cool weaponry the reader could possibly hope for." ( Publisher's Weekly)
"I couldn't put it down." (Rush Limbaugh)

Tsar is Excellent

Great book with a lot of action. The writer does a good job keeping you on your toes.

James Bondish!!

Main hero is able to do almost anything, but keep the love of his life alive. That is the only difference between him and James Bond(who always gets the girl) a little sappy with the love angle but wonderful narration and fun exciting plot.

Disappointing Effort

I am a true fan of Ted Bell. His writing style is good and his charater of Alex Hawke has always been entertaining. This was not his best effort and left me a little disappointed that this was the latest installment of the Pirate series.

The kind of book that will make you cancel plans to stay home and read (or listen to)!

Wow! This is the kind of book that will make you cancel plans to stay home and read (or listen to)!

I have never been a thriller spy novel reader, but this came up in a search so I decided to expand my literary horizons - and I was not disappointed! Now the rest of the series is on my list to read in the future.

If I must be stuck in a pandemic lock down and not able to travel abroad myself, at least I can experience different lands, work abroad, excitement, danger, romance, culture and luscious landscapes through this compelling and engaging novel! 5 out of 5 Stars from me!

Excellent Performance

The story starts off a bit slow, in my opinion. This is not the best in the 'Hawke' series. The second half was excellent, and even stirred some feelings! Narrator John Shea was fantastic, as usual. This will not be my last 'Hawke' novel, but I hope the next one carries more intensity along the length of the story, rather than just the end.

Bad outcome with his lover and child killed.

I do not like how he keeps losing those he loves. Give the man a break.

JAMES BOND MOVE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A very pleasant surprise from an unfamiliar author. Put together an intelligent, handsome, wealthy, well bred englishman with an irresistible, american, wise cracking sidekick, and you have the makings for a terrific team. These two have all the global connections needed to get the job done-they can save the world while keeping us breathlessly entertained along the way. Beautifully written and narrated.

My only suggestion is that you read Assassin, Pirate then Tsar, in that order. I read Tsar first and although it did not really ruin the fun for me, I did realize I knew what would happen to certain characters ahead of time because these three books do have various threads carrying thru in each book.( I dont want to get anymore specific or I will ruin the stories for you.) This author has a vivid imagination. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. Cant wait for the next Alex Hawke adventure. Thanks Mr Bell. Keep them coming!!

Intriguiging!

Who says only Rush Limbaugh could enjoy a good thriller? I'm a liberal democrat, veteran and someone who enjoys well-written fiction. I found Ted Bell's "Tsar" enjoyable, and also informative. I highly recommend.

TSAR

the book is great and the narrator John Shea is just perfect his voice for this type of book is the best tops

Better than good.

There’s a lot going on. In this story there’s Hawke and a bunch of his friends, an evil genius and his evil deeds, plenty of action, some mysteries and spying, cool vehicles, love and humor, and heartbreak. The author and the narrator are both a a lot better than good at their craft. No more time for reviewing, I’ve got to get going on the next Ted Bell and Hawke story.
