Summary
For years, ex–Navy SEAL Maxwell Moore has worked across the Middle East and behind the scenes for the Special Activities Division of the CIA, making connections, extracting valuable intelligence, and facing off against America’s enemies at every turn. And then...news of a potentially devastating coalition: What if two of the greatest threats to the security of the United States were to form an unholy alliance? The Taliban is trying to exploit a Mexican drug cartel to which they supply opium as a means to bring the fire of jihad to the hearts of the infidels. It is up to Moore, and his team, to infiltrate and dismantle the drug cartel, even as they hunt for those who would bring the ultimate terror and destruction to the streets of America.In a story that races from the remote, war-scarred landscapes of the Middle East to the blood-soaked chaos of the U.S.–Mexico border, Tom Clancy once again delivers a heart-stopping thriller that is frighteningly close to reality.

Hard work and badly disjointed
This book was hard going from the start. It's full of cliches and as cheesy as hell. You have little or no empathy with the main character who is frankly no more than a knuckle headed misogynist dinosaur.

Awful, truly,truly awful.
If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?
People who enjoy descriptions of things. People who enjoy descriptions of things where the author uses the foreign word for an item (with an achingly earnest attempt at an accent) then translates it into English presumably in order to add some local flavour would love it. Other people who would enjoy it are those who can't take a hint and really need something hammering home before it sinks in. Character X has rich parents, we get it - you don't need to describe the crystal chandeliers, the golden toilets, the diamond encrusted gym etc etc.
What could Tom Clancy and Peter Telep have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Made it about a third of the length by cutting out 90% of the descriptions and needless waffle.
Would you be willing to try another one of Steven Weber’s performances?
Yes.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Generally disappointed in the quality of the book which I'd bought on the back of listening to Tom Clancy's Red Storm Rising. This isn't a patch on that and the attempt at writing a "normal" thriller is godawful - inadvertantly poor dialogue, cheesy descriptions of characters and their coffee coloured skin, flashing emerald eyes, raptor like noses etc etc etc.
Any additional comments?
Don't buy it. Seriously. Trust me on this.

Would have made a great movie
Tom Clancy does it again. Would go and watch the movie if Michael Bay and Jerry Bruckheimer put their heads together. My second audio book and I was impressed by Steven Webers very accurate impressions of the various dialects involved in the story which made it a joy to listen to. If you like good guys vs bad guy stories then this is for you.

Loved it, had me gripped from the off.
Some may say farfetched, but it was exciting.

Not to my taste
The story jumps about a lot so you are not sure what is happening and is not helped by a poor narrator.
Made several attempts to listen but just couldn't get into story

Good albeit a bit jumpy
As with all Clancy books, you cannot fault the writing or the technical expertise. I did however find the character development of Max to be quite predictable. My chief criticism however is that the story seemed to jump around a lot and this was rather confusing for the first 14 hours of this 18 hour book.

Too slow
Compared to other Tom Clancy books this is a real slow burner. So much so after a few hours I’ve stopped listening to it.
It’s quite disjointed and jumps around a lot, hard to follow who’s who and what’s happening.
