Publisher's Summary

Global Strike - the final book in The War Planners series. 

It has been over a year since the war began. A year since China launched its surprise attack on America. EMP and cyber weapons plunging much of the nation into a dark chaos. Thousands of anti-ship missiles gutting the US Pacific fleet. A Chinese-allied North Korea launching an all-out attack on South Korea. Chinese information warfare campaigns triggering America to launch a nuclear strike on China's own nuclear stockpile. And the international political consequences that followed....

The Chinese-American war has grown cold in the past year. The two superpowers are separated by ocean-sized moats. China's strategy is to put America under siege, politically and economically. And it's working. But the flames of war will soon re-ignite.

Chinese President Jinshan is not long for this earth. With cancer giving him only a few months left to live, he is ready for his final move. A massive Chinese military transit across the Pacific, and eventually onto American soil.

The Americans are preparing. David Manning is one of the top analysts on the joint CIA-DOD Silversmith team, and he's desperately searching for a strategy to win. His brother Chase is working with American special forces and CIA teams in the Chinese-contested territory of South America. Victoria Manning is the commanding officer of a navy helicopter squadron in the eastern pacific. Lena Chou is held prisoner on an American military base.

But everything is about to change.

Time is running out.

And the Americans will need more than technology or bravery to win the war.

They will need a plan.

Meh.

I wanted to like this book because I like the genre and the plot has promise. But like the earlier books in the series, (there is some lazy writing, unnatural hasty dialogue and plot holes papered over with only a few lines. The first book in the series was good but this is the literary equivalent of day old fast food. I recommend this book for anyone who wants something to half pay attention to while commuting. I do not recommend it for anyone who has the time and energy to find a better book.

Riveting from the get-go. Starts off on the Navy's newest leviathan, the MICHAEL MONSOOR and never slows down. Loved every minute. BZ to Andrew for another Winner!

Looking forward to the next series,,,Andrew more MONSOOR! :-)

Great Series!

If you like a good war series, then you will love this one! It’s a story about a “What if”. The best part about it, is that it’s just that, a story.

I would hate for this book to come true, but In our time, anything is possible. Andrew understands the possibility of this war and explains it well. I felt like I was part of our forces. The bad parts and the good parts.

His descriptions of the weapons, aircraft and Naval vessels was excellent. If you ever wondered what our military can do, you will love this series.

Keep up the good work Andrew! Don’t stop telling us stories.
