Flight of the Intruder Audiobook

" Great book. The end differs from the end in the movie. "

" One of the more memorable books to come out of that difficult conflict. In a way it captured the essence of the difficulty facing those who were thrown into a battle they did not understand and yet were forced to fight within tight confines. As a thriller it certainly lived up to the hype. "

" Stephen Coonts' first novel is full of first-rate flying sequences that should appeal to anybody in the military or who is strongly interested in military fiction. The scenes with the outspoken commander are also very good. The rest of the writing borders on mundane. This book also assumes that you are well versed on military lingo and slang, as it seldom translates any for the layman reader. "

" I saw the movie, and I immediately wanted to read the book. i don't regret! "

" One of my favorite books of all times. "

" Loved the characters, the plot, the planes! What more can I say. "

" This book was pretty good, but it's SO So technical. I think a pilot wannabe would just love it though, or perhaps a war buff. A 50's something female like me probably doesn't fit the demographics for which this novel was intended, lol. In spite of that, however, it's not a bad thriller, especially if you gloss over all the technical details. "

" Coont's first book. I really think this is his best book in the Jake Grafton series. A Vietnam war era fight pilot story with all the bells and whistles. "

" simply the best airplane book i've read bar none. "

" Jake Grafton is one hell of a pilot. I had sweated out due to the hot combat plane actions. "

" Good book to read while camping on the Sunshine Coast. "

" A brass tacks story of flying in Vietnam. Made more interesting b/c the author was there. "

" The first Jake Grafton book--Intruders in Vietnam Nam. A powerful read that brought back memories and said some things about that war. Where is book #2 ? "

" This is one of the best Vietnam thrillers out there! "

" Nice book, let's you know one person's perspective of the Vietnam conflict. It was unpopular with many people. It was a quick read and details in the book were very good. "

" Nice descriptions of flying a jet. "

" I read this years ago, and just re-read it. One of the best...I only wish it had really happened...Uncle Ho deserved one right down the pickle barrel "

" Very good book, I was surprised at how different the book was from the movie. Obviously a lot of material was left out to keep the movie from being several hours long but they also changed parts of the plot as well. "

" I enjoyed this one. Much better than the movie. A decent story written well. "

" very entertaining, vietnam war from the bird's eye view "

" Excellent tale of Vietnam pilots. Very authentic look into the stress of combat in that controversial war. "

" Good action & interesting. Learned a little about Vietnam era Navy pilots. "

" I had a good time reading this book, the action didn't stop. "

" And oldie, but a goodie. Great story. "

" This was a good book, I enjoyed it, not as much as I would have liked. I truly hope that the rest of the series is a little better...at least for me. "

" Loved the book, loved the movie, "

" literally made my heart race "

" I couldn't get into it, even though the concept was good. "

" Lot of detail about life on an aircraft carrier. "

" This is an excellent book. There is only one problem with the story. I have to sleep some time today. I was up all night riveted to the book until the end. "

" literally made my heart race "

" This is one of the best Vietnam thrillers out there! "

" One of my favorite books of all times. "

" the technical descriptions of flying a fighter jet got this book an extra star. so far i dislike the story and all the characters in it. really having trouble finishing this one. "

" Starts slow but finishes great! "

" I really enjoyed this book a number of years ago. The setting of the book is during the Viet Nam war. The book goes on to tell the story of the brave pilots who flew the Intruder to provide support to ground forces during the war. "

" Good action & interesting. Learned a little about Vietnam era Navy pilots. "

" simply the best airplane book i've read bar none. "
