Theft of Fire

By: Michael Edelson

Narrated by: John McLoughlin

Markus Stebbings is hiding terminal brain cancer, hoping to remain alive and a part of Delta Force long enough to die for something that matters. The mission to destroy a domestic terrorist cell in possession of a nuclear bomb sounds like the opportunity he is looking for, until he realizes that his targets are not terrorists, and that what they have is something infinitely more dangerous than a bomb.

On the run with Dr. Grace Llewellyn and the device she calls Prometheus, Markus finds himself pitted against the full might of US intelligence and military forces as they mount the biggest manhunt ever conducted on American soil. He quickly learns that Prometheus represents a technological advancement so profound that it can alter the course of history. But there is another such device already in play, and he, Grace, and Prometheus are all that stand between it and the end of human civilization as we know it.

Great story

While I understand these are special OPs characters, I really hate all the F this MF that. Probably won’t buy another one.

Non stip intrigue

Nice to read a book that I hadn't figured out half way through. Enjoyed it very much. Can't wait for the next book.

pretty good

Just the absolute best story. Everything I like to listen about and more. Such a great story I will listen again and again. A keeper!!

What a fun book!

This book was a blast to read. The story kept my interest. The characters were likable and yet flawed, which I felt made them relatable. The underlying premise was interesting and got me thinking. And best of all was the dialogue, which had me laughing out loud harder than any book I have read in a long time. Totally worth a read and a recommendation.

great action, excellent reader

This story grabs you from the very first and keeps the action going through the end. this book also presents some interesting ethical dilemmas that I have come to know and appreciate from this author.
