Description
#1 New York Times and #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author Brad Thor brings his darkest and most intriguing thriller yet—a terrifying story of espionage and betrayal—brilliantly paced with superb nonstop action.
Born in the shadows and kept from heads of state, there are some missions so deadly, so sensitive, that they simply don’t exist. When one such mission goes horribly wrong, a wave of dramatic terrorist attacks is set in motion. Their goal: the complete and total collapse of the United States.
With the CIA’s intelligence abilities hobbled, former Navy SEAL Team Six member turned covert counterterrorism operative Scot Harvath launches an audacious plan to infiltrate the terrorists’ network and prevent one of the biggest threats the United States has ever faced.
Simultaneously, a foreign wet work team has been sent to California. Their target: one of Hollywood’s most famous filmmakers. While working on a secret documentary project, movie producer Larry Salomon has unknowingly exposed one of the world’s wealthiest and most politically connected powerbrokers—a man with a radical anti-American agenda poised to plunge the nation into deadly, irreversible chaos.
As the plots rocket to their pulse-pounding conclusion and the identities of the perpetrators are laid stunningly bare, Harvath will be left with only one means to save America. Unable to trust anyone, he will be forced to go Full Black.
Intense and frighteningly realistic, Full Black is hands down Brad Thor’s most riveting thriller to date.

5By No-LHRScary but way too true about what is and has happened to America and this was written in 2011 so even more frightening to read in 2025.Scary Good
4By nicktianoMy favorite character is back. I love The Troll. It’s scary how accurate this book is becoming today in 2023, with it being written in 2011. I hope people use it as a wake up call. Harvath is not a true main character in this book but at least the two stories eventually come together.Cliff hanger!
4By ANProctorStory started out really good and I was immediately intrigued, then it got really slow towards the middle of it when Chase was onsite with the Uppsala situation.it was good, but didn’t need to be that long. I had to put it down for a bit because of 5is. But the ending was a classic Thor cliffhanger! I love when it ends that way. Great storyline and very interesting! Well done Mr. Thor!The passage of time has made this book old and tired
1By NiagaraMichaelAside from the clunky writing, which is often meandering and repetitive, the author has a villain, who today, would be a hero. The book fails the test of time. Why is James Standing a bad person? According to the book, it's because he wants to fight AIDS in Africa. It's also because he wants an alternative currency. Well, we know what happened with AIDS because people like Thor refused to recognize the need to fight it. And today, of course, Bitcoins are the currency of choice for a lot of very important players in the business world. The book is already badly dated. And, Thor needs to learn that you never write MYRIAD OF. It's simply MYRIAD. This is because the use of myriad means the OF is understood.Not a novel
1By Derek CooksThis isn't a book with a story line, it's a political manifesto. I have LOVED the Harvath series, but I had to stop reading this one a quarter through. No story here - just grandstanding. I'm sorry Mr. Thor - I'm done.Best brad Thor Book
5By Fruitland bobThis was an action packed thriller. Best Brad thor book I've readFull Black
3By BlueDog70Great book but the author goes a bit overboard with the economic critiques. I understand where his sympathies lie, but not everything on the right is good and holy while the left is the source of all evil in the world. The evil lefty billionaire (i.e. George Soros) is good for this plot but the real life actions of the Koch brothers (and other conservative oligarchs) and their efforts to affect our society seems to merit consideration in some metaphorical form as well. The book came out in an election year so clearly Brad was trying to make a point. I know conservatives think they have a monopoly on patriotism, but many progressives are equally as passionate in their love for this country.Great read from the start
5By PadillaFJFrom the get go, this book is fast paced and action packed. This was my first book from Brad Thor and got me hooked. Have read the latest book, Black List and now working on the previously released books. Great storyline...Full Black
5By Plc49I have been reading Brad Thor books from first to last and every one of them is better than the last.Full black
5By GPS1228Brad Thor is simply the best. Have read everything he has written and enjoyed every word. It's a win-win because I enjoy the novels and am being educated at the same time. I could not quite understand the last page, however, maybe someone can explain it to me. Giuseppe Santaniello, Brig Gen, USAF, RetGood book!
4By Stobe2008It's pretty good and I really enjoy the fact that this book makes you think about real life. Not just mindless story reading. I just kinda don't like the long tangents.Fiction or not?
5By EmtrchrLoved the book, and how it ties with current events. So much of what is in this book could or is happening now. Keep up the great work Brad.Waste of time
1By Seymour J. WienerThe book has moments when its quite entertaining but all too often the author goes off these tangents ranting and raging about liberals, Muslims and anything that is not all-American by his standards. I would have preferred he focus on the action/covert ops than waste the readers' time on his, at times, bigoted views.Full Black
4By PoetessmomI have always been a non-fiction reader. This book may have changed my mind. Well done.Full Black
4By SLTW85This was a great book. It was very current and very real. I read other reviews on this book and there were people who were disappointed in the book and that the author has become obsessed with government conspiracy theories and they didn't care to read any more books. Let me just say, An event was conspired in this story that really gets you thinking... Could that really happen? Not even a week after I finished the book, a similar event transpired in Colorado. Although it was not to the scale that had taken place in the story, it still makes you really wonder... Anyway, I couldn't put this book down. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because I was a little disappointed in the ending. I feel like it was rushed. Maybe it's just because I didn't want it to end. I can't wait to start Black List.Strangely accelerated ending
3By Big guy234Good book but it felt the end was rushed. Brad - did you have a deadline to meet? Don't compromise!Full Black. Review
3By KnobladyExcellent, chilling close to real situation with recognizable players. Makes one tahini and prepareMust read
5By RobquixScary but excellent story that you're glad is fiction. God help us if these systems in the book actually exist, which they probable do! I couldn't put the book down.BAD
1By mikmcs43This book felt like Rush Limbaugh and Dick Cheney collaborated with Glenn Beck to see how much garbage they could vomit! Save your money.
