Publisher's summary

July 4th weekend, New York City: As thousands of holiday travelers make their way out of Manhattan, a flawlessly executed terrorist attack plunges the city into a maelstrom of panic and death. Amid the chaos, an elite team of foreign operatives is systematically searching for one of their own, a man so powerful that the US government refuses to admit he even exists and will do anything to keep him hidden. Now, with the world's deadliest enemy upon America's doorstep, counterterrorism operative Scot Harvath must fight his way through the burning city streets to take down an invisible terrorist mastermind with the means to unleash hell on a global scale.

Vocalization

Guidall changed his voice for Harvath, not a terrible thing, but slightly distracting and unnerving for most of the read.

I'm not sure why none of these books have been turned into a movie but my latest thoughts I to the effects of if the movie industry doesn't want to take part and be excellent book someone should turn these books into illustrations of a great cartoon please mr. Bradley Thor find a way to make these into movies.

Very Good

I love the book. My only concern was, the unrealistic abilities of the terrorist and Chechen.

The only thing I don't like about the book...

If you could sum up Takedown in three words, what would they be?

Action packed and holds the reader spell bound

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Held my attention all the way through

Any additional comments?

The only thing I didn't like about the book, I couldn't put it down, really messed with my sleep..

Complex plot

A whirlwind of a storyline, with all threads nicely wrapped up in the end. Bravo!
