"Great thriller taking place in exotic locales like Malaysia. Promotes a very real possibility of a terrorist takeover of a country and establishing a Muslim caliphate under sharia law. Very timely for today, and they way this crazy man's plans are thwarted by American operatives is very interesting."

" This book held my interest, but there parts that did not seem realistic. "
— Jerry, 2/16/2014" It was slow and dull at start, but then it got really exciting. "
— Adal, 1/11/2014" Exciting read. Starts out a bit slow but the action ramps up. A frightening look at what an evil dictator could do to us and the world in the future. "
— Tanya, 1/8/2014" What I learned from this book was a great geography lesson. Worth reading the book for this alone if you are not familiar with Southeast Asia. Kept me interested, fast paced believable for the most part. I won't spoil it but the ending was not too believable. Nice beach read. "
— Kathleen, 11/30/2013" This is an enjoyable thrill ride of action, terrorist plots, adventure, military, and a little romance all with strong Christian values and message. A cross between a Tom Clancy book and a Sunday School lesson all wrapped up in a pretty bow. "
— Thomas, 11/25/2013" very good - discusses indonesia which is interesting "
— Valynda, 10/24/2013" A great story that kept me on the edge of my seat. The scary thing about it, however, is that though the story may have seemed far-fetched a few years ago, it is all too possible in today's world of radical Islamic terrorism. "
— Lillie, 10/6/2013" A fun read for believers. Not too nerve wracking, but good characters and an interesting plot. If it was more in line with prophetic reality it could be quite intense. Non-believers will predictably complain about it a lot. "
— David, 6/27/2013" I've seen a lot of people recommend this military thriller, but I'm afraid I had such a hard time getting into it. I'm thinking this would be a guy book. The opening reminded me so much of a Tom Clancy novel with an information plot line that was onerous. "
— Joan, 3/21/2013" Sloppy writing, tries to hard, tad unrealistic. Had to force myself to finish it. "
— Julian, 11/5/2012" The book captures you attention from the beginning to the end. One of my favorite reads, highly recommend this one. "
— Tfkreidler, 9/4/2012" I didn't enjoy Brown's conspiracy set in Indonesia as too detailed where we didn't need details. His style slowed down the story and took away the enjoyment. "
— Eric, 6/22/2012" Decent read. Fun and mostly mindless entertainment. Free from kindle. I enjoyed it. "
— David, 4/23/2012" Quite a romp! Interesting to see how Brown handled the high tempo action scenes. Left a lot out so the tension was extreme. "
— Julie, 1/26/2012" Quite a romp! Interesting to see how Brown handled the high tempo action scenes. Left a lot out so the tension was extreme. "

— Joan, 4/21/2011" Not badly written. Plot moves along and has some tense moments, but is not earth shaking. Not particularly memorable. "
— Lynn, 4/14/2011" Exciting read. Starts out a bit slow but the action ramps up. A frightening look at what an evil dictator could do to us and the world in the future. "

— Tfkreidler, 12/17/2010" Zack and Diane are back with another global apocalypse which is not totally stopped but better than it could have been. Little attention is paid to the aftermath of the mayhem but all is well that ends ok. Not a bad story if you don't mind not receiving vast amounts of information. "
— Carol, 11/17/2010" This is an enjoyable thrill ride of action, terrorist plots, adventure, military, and a little romance all with strong Christian values and message. A cross between a Tom Clancy book and a Sunday School lesson all wrapped up in a pretty bow. "
