Very happy with the book...
This was a very enjoyable read. The action isn't quite as intense as I would've liked to have been, but I still found the story very entertaining...
Not to be Missed!!!
Brad Thor is one of the best. Right up there with Vince Flynn for writing topical
thriller
s that entertain and educate, this may be the most tightly written of his six novels that it has been my pleasure to read. The protagonist of these books is Scot Harvath a former Navy SEAL and Homeland Scurity operative.
This book picks up where the last one, "Takedown" leaves off. At the end of that book, Scot Harvath's girlfriend Tracy steps out on the porch of his home and is felled by an assassin's bullet which is just enough off target to spare her life, but serious enough to put her in a coma and on a ventilator.
Harvath does not realize it at the time, but that attack on Tracy is the
first
of several that are planned for people close to Harvath. Who is carrying out the attacks, who is planning them and why consumes not only Harvath, but the reader as events unfold. Someone appears bent on revenge, but for what?
It is a large onion that Harvath must peel his way through to get to the answers and telling you more than that could spoil the masterful writing effort that Thor has offered for our reading enjoyment.
Do not pass this one by.

Great Thriller!
As usual, Brad Thor novels make for a great read. In this case, I got his personal autograph with a personal note from him for my copy of The
First
Commandment
when I met him at a recent writer's conference. Mr. Thor was very gracious and accommodating and was excited a fan stopped by to visit him unexpectedly. I recommend all avid
thriller
readers to check out Brad Thor's website and then read all of his novels in succession. Brad Thor's star character Scot Harvath makes Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt seem like a boy scout!

Wow... simply wow!
This was my
first
book by Brad Thor and I am very happy that I "found" him! I love books that are fast paced and action packed and this one had it. This book had me from the opening quote! This is a very well written political, miliary, real-world
thriller
by a very talented author. Brad's other books have just jumped on my "to read" list. Extremely highly recommended!!!!
