2By TrabecularThis book was worse than the previous one in the series. I thought I’d give him another chance as his first novel was decent, but this book was ridiculous. Willy Wonka ridiculous. I really am not sure why this author is so popular. There are other much more talented authors out there spinning higher quality yarns in this genre. I think I am done with BT.Just as good second time around

5By dfahreLove Brad Thor’s style! He researches his material and consults with those with the specific knowledge needed. His books are exciting and well written!Banger of a book
5By bjhjjbhuhGreat book, love Tracy and scot, and as always, action packed. FantasticUh... cliff hanger much?
5By ANProctorBrad you outdid yourself my friend. Story started a little strange, but the action kept it going and eventually ended in a way I was not at all expecting. You gotta leave a prologue on something like that! Fantastic book, lots of action and am super excited for the next one. 5 stars no doubt!My new favorite author
5By Aves-GuyI was a fan of Vince Flynn’s series based on a similar charactor. When Vince passed away (still missing his series) I went in search for something similiar. Brad isn’t a carbon of Vince, he has his own style. I believe you will be engrossed in his books and in the Scott Harvath charactor. Although I suggest starting a series at the beginning, if you haven’t read one of Brad’s books, Takedown is a great example of what is in store for you if you take on the rest of his books (as I have). Keep’m coming Brad, and I’ll keep reading them.Eye opener
5By eagle441Great book!!! Every book I read makes me open my eyes a little more on how crazy real these stories could go from nonfiction to fiction, guess that what makes all BT books impossible to put down.
