Fantastic War Epic

This is as timely as a book can get! It is so plausible and tracks with what we are just now learning about China. Everyone should read this series.

edge of your seat thriller

I thought this story would be a run of the mill USA vs China story, which in part it is, but there is so much more. there are a few places twist worthy of admiration for the author. this story did not end up where I thought I would and that is a very good thing. now excuse me, I have to buy the next book... happy listening!

One of the best, if not the best military action narratives read that keeps you having on every words to find what is next.

Very entertaining

For what its worth I really enjoyed listening to the story. The narrator did a top notch job. I am definitely reading the next book. I don't know how accurate the strategies, tactics, and technology is but it's a good story to pass the time away.

narrator did so much better for book 4

still some very strange pronunciations of words, politburo, etc. and some obvious lack of homework/ knowledge of military equipment: it's a Virginia Class sub, not a Virgin Class! and a few others, but overall pretty good.

loved the story cant wait to read book 5
