Cloaked by the mists of dawn, Task Force 61 - carrying tanks, aircraft, and over 5000 Marines - steams toward Syria with deadly intent. Their mission: rescue 100 hostages from a terrorist stronghold - alive. With realism seldom seen in military fiction, The Med is a magnificent and timely epic that brings the human drama of armed conflict compellingly to life.

Story
The first interstellar war, a generation ago, left humanity enslaved. Now humans fight in the armies of their masters to save themselves from annihilation. At least, that's what the propaganda insists is true. What the layers of lies keep hidden is how badly the new war is going for the people of earth. Now it's Dylan Kane's turn to blast into the heavens and join the battle, but what his masters don't know is that by putting a weapon in his hands, they're giving him the key to unlocking his hopes of freedom.

Story
Seventy years ago, the interstellar supercarrier Ark Royal was the pride of the Royal Navy. But now, her weapons are outdated and her solid-state armour nothing more than a burden on her colossal hull. She floats in permanent orbit near Earth, a dumping ground for the officers and crew the Royal Navy wishes to keep out of the public eye. But when a deadly alien threat appears, the modern starships built by humanity are no match for the powerful alien weapons.

Story
Five years ago, the US Space Force became a reality. And while those writing the checks took things very seriously, the other military branches did not. As a result, Space Force was populated by undesirables. My name is Captain Ethan Stone, a decorated member of SEAL Team Six turned Space Force "recruit". Flash forward five years and between tenses. President West is in office. Power has shifted. And Space Force is defunded. With just a handful of us still living on base, we find ourselves being evicted. But before all of us can leave, aliens invade.

Story
HMS Royston, Coastal Forces Depot Ship, is mother ship to a battered, war-worn bunch of MTBs and MGBs. New on board is Sub-Lieutenant Royce: commissioned for three months, sea experience three months in an Asdic trawler, and aged 20. His commanding officer is Lieutenant Harston, aged 23.
His predecessor has been killed in action 48 hours earlier and is now hardly remembered. The crew are all young - some very young - but all old before their time....

Summary
Commanding a combined US-South Korea force, the newly promoted US Navy hero Dan Lenson wonders if his embattled group can possibly keep sea lanes open in the Central Pacific as he tries to turn the tide and buy time for the Allies to regroup.
But when his own flagship comes under ferocious attack, he must leave it to assume command elsewhere - without knowing when he'll be able to return. In the meantime, SEAL operator Teddy Oberg, escaping from a hellish POW camp, heads west through desolate mountains toward what he hopes will be freedom. And in Washington, DC, Dan's wife, Blair Titus, helps formulate America's military and political response to overwhelming setbacks in the Pacific and at home.
Filled with dramatic battle scenes from massive ship, submarine, and air warfare to desperate hand-to-hand Marine Corps combat - and informed by the author's own background as a Navy captain and defense analyst - Hunter Killer is a powerful, all-too-believable novel about how the next world war might unfold.

Disappointed - book ends half way thru the story
If you could sum up Hunter Killer in three words, what would they be?
Very engrossing.
What other book might you compare Hunter Killer to and why?
Somewhat like a Tom Clancy novel without all the background and detail information. The story moves along pretty quickly, foregoing details on weapon specs and strategies.
Have you listened to any of Gary Galone’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No, but he is very good.
Any additional comments?
This book tells an interesting story about how WWIII starts and develops with the Chinese. You can see how this would happen given the world we live in today. Only problem is that the book ends half way through the story. The follow on book has not been written so you are left hanging for maybe a year until the follow on book is released. Note that this author has written many books but only 2 books are available on Audible so it is uncertain whether you will ever be able to finish with Audible.

Good story, wish more were available.
first time with this author and series, thought if was interesting and kept me coming back. Only two of the books in the series are available, wish there were more to get all of the story that lead up to this point. Might have to find time to read an actual book!

Couldn’t Buy into Story....
Not bad as a naval thriller. But I lost interest early on once the US response unfolded. If China ever nuked a carrier group, we would nuke right back and it would be full nuclear exchange in very short order. This novel crosses the line into upsurdity fairly early on. Good effort though and good writing. Narrator was very good respectable as well.

Modern Naval Warfare
The best part of the book arethe battle moments. The author is perhaps a bit overly descriptive, however, that may be due to my own experiences. He knows his weapons systems, and perhaps even better (and disturbing) is his characters whom are POW's. The inter-personal exchanges are awkward, but I am not here for a love story. Worth the time, worth the money and looking forward to the next, follow on book.

At war with China
This is a continuation of the Dan Lenson series. Packed with action and adventure. This time he has finally made it to Admiral not because they like him, it's because he gets results. This is a scary scenario of what could happen in the future. Lack of supplies and missiles along with technology that is constantly changing. Hi tech warfare and the highly trained personnel that have to operate the systems.

Dark, Grim, Authentic, Can't Wait for the Next One
Would you consider the audio edition of Hunter Killer to be better than the print version?
Unknown; in general I prefer audiobooks.
What did you like best about this story?
The characters, situations, and plot arcs seem authentic and realistic.
Which character – as performed by Gary Galone – was your favorite?
Dan, of course.
Any additional comments?
"All due respect" to Gary Galone: learn how to pronounce corpsman, bo's'un, etc.
