Honestly from a 53 year old life long republican

This Thriller is fantastic. Well worth the credit. The opening scene is gripping, has you clenching your teeth, getting behind this president as he is attacked by political foe's. Then Patterson (probably) deftly compounds the presidents precarious situation with health issues (real life right). Clinton (obviously) serves up genuine insight into todays political climate, shit us 9-5ers never think about. Thank you Bill for that insight it was enlightening. About two hours in the president makes a decision that most humans can't even comprehend and he orders a strike that is sure to kill innocent children as collateral damage. Next you're gonna laugh out loud as he tries to drive a car. About five hours in and another barbarian at the gate while the others haven't been resolved yet, just continues to add to the insurmountable mountain that the president of the united states must face every day (all enemy's foreign and domestic right). Great line "Is there anything else Madam Vice President" will make your neck hair stand up. This book gives you much more respect for the office of the president and has a way of making your own personal complaints about the U.S. seem petty. Every single sentence in this book advances the plot and is gripping. THERE is NO fluff. Thanks Bill and James nicely done. Performance Dennis Quaid is Dennis Quaid, he did a great job (4 stars) would have loved his performance if he didn't do FBI Liz, but Dennis and the cast were still great.

Very Disappointing!

I was so anxious for this book to become available; what a disappointment! I couldn’t stand the President’s gruff voice, which I believe was performed by Dennis Quaid. Awful! But, the story itself was boring! I’ve enjoyed so many of Mr. Patterson’s books, but certainly not this one. It was a struggle to listen as long as I did. I couldn’t endure the whole novel; just went to the end to give this review.

Hooked

I was never a James Patterson fan. His books never appealed to me. I watched him and the President do the late night circuit and figured it wouldn’t hurt to give it a try.

Boy am I glad that I did! What a fantastic story! Sometimes it was obvious where the story was going, but there were plenty of “oh my God they didn’t!” moments. Great listen!

Good story

Great right until the end with political rant speech. Book was great until that part.

AWESOME

I loved this book from beginning to end!! I just pray we get a president in house who would be able to handle god forbid a situation like this if were to ever happen!
