Publisher Description
In this explosive new series from New York Times bestseller Harold Coyle and noted military author Barrett Tillman, a new type of war is being fought by private paramilitary companies at the beck and call of the highest bidder. With the military and intelligence agencies spread thin, the US is constantly calling upon the services of these organizations—and Strategic Solutions Inc. is among the best.
Members of Al-Qaida have set in place a vicious biological attack. Men and women infected with the highly communicable and deadly Marburg virus have been sent to major cities and sensitive locations throughout the world in hopes of creating a deadly, global epidemic.
The dedicated men and women of SSI, led by former Rear Admiral Michael Derringer, are consummate professionals, nearly all ex-police or military, and are the among the best in the world at what they do. But the mastermind behind the living bio-weapons, Dr. Saeed Sharif, is more deadly than anyone could have possibly imagined. Spread throughout the globe and thwarting attacks on their home facilities the staff at SSI soon find themselves engaged in a frontline game of ground warfare. And to make matters worse, two infected Marburg carriers are heading straight for the United States. Using every resource it has, SSI launches an all-out search for the walking plague carriers before thousands more become infected and die.
Posing a frightening scenario that could become all too real in the near future, and filled with the details of the military world that have made Coyle's books bestsellers, Pandora's Legion hits the front lines of the new war against terrorism in this engrossing, high-stakes novel.

"This was a good, fairly fast moving action-military story. I liked the story in spite of the number of coincidences that helped the good guys stop the bad guys in the end (oops, hope that wasn't a spoiler). "

" If you like Tom Clancy's work you'll like this book. Relevant to today's world situation s to what we face with bio-terror, al Qaeda,illegal immigration, covert operations and other things "that fly under the radar." "

" I actually read this book twice. I love most of the stuff written by Harold Coyle but then I am a military stories nut. "

" Was not too bad, I enjoyed his other works better. I lost interest in the characters towards the end and that isn't a good sign for me. "

" Interesting plot, but shallow characters. If it's a series, I came out of this with too little background or empathy for the characters to want to read more. "
— Geoffrey, 3/13/2012 -
" I really liked Coyle's earlier work. This one though almost had the right trimmings but the characters were lacking in terms of depth and affinity. Maybe it was because I had a lot of other things on my mind when I read this but it just wasnt what I had expected. "
