Awesome Awesome Awesome1

All I can say is, this is a great 4th installment and I hope this is not the end of the Joe Ledger series. He's too interesting a character to come to an end. As for the narrator, Ray Porter was outstanding as usual. I will be looking for other books narrated by him and of course more books by Jonathan Maberry.

Joe Ledger is the man

Another great performance for a great book. i look forward to the next one.

Mindless military action and vampire slaying

In this fourth installment of Joe Ledger's story, Ledger kicks the @$$ of evil Iranians, a Romanian? weirdo cult, and a group of religious doomsday vampires...all while trying to figure out where the mysterious group of psychotic women fit in to this mess. This book is brainless military sci-fi/horror action at its best. I only gave the book three stars because I started to get bored of all the bad @$$ military action. And it waxed a little too political for me at times. This is also a book that you shouldn't think too deeply about--for instance, why the heck did he bring his DOG for a mission in Iran (when clearly the dog wasn't being used for the mission)? Certainly, the dog HAPPENED to come in handy at times, but it seems poor planning to bring a dog and then leave him pointlessly in the hotel during the mission, so that if things didn't go as smoothly as planned, Ledger would have to go back and get his dog before getting out of harm's way. I also felt some of the "intrigue" plot was rather overcooked. Really? Intrigue in the Catholic Church? Gasp! Never seen THAT in a book before! So, like I said, this book is great if you're interested in some mindless action...just don't think too much.

If you liked the rest of the Joe Ledger books, then this is more of the same. If you liked the first and felt "meh" about the rest, then this book is similar to the rest of the sequels. If you haven't read any of the others, pick up Patient Zero (it's good!) and then keep in mind that the rest of the books are less intelligent, but just as much pulpy action.

I think Porter did an excellent job of capturing the emotion (mostly anger and fiery annoyance) of Ledger while reading this book. I enjoyed the narration quite a bit.

Joe needs to get laid!

I am a huge fan of Ledger and his crew. I raised an eye brow when I suspected what the Red Nights were early on. Good thing Maberry does a great job at making most of the content believable. Another great story and I'm about to dig into another
