It would probably be somehwere inbetween three and four stars if I could have my way. I really liked it. I just got a little confused at times about who was who. So, I had to go back and re-read parts. This was a really intriguing story!! And I learned more about the different groups in the Middle East than I have from any other source. Pretty interesting stuff. At the end I began to wonder how much of it was true...because some of the story line went into what the different groups are trying to accomplish. Anyway, it was a good read.

Each of Brad Thor's books delivers action, mystery, intrigue . . .and history. This book was the best fo the four I have read so far. This could either be Brad Thor's becoming a more accomplished and skillful author or my becoming a better more familiar consumer of his stories.

Reading this great Brad Thor novel now. Hard to put down. Keeps ones interest.

I jumped right into this series and flew through the first ones. This one was overly detailed for me. It was almost like reading a history book (which is great for people who really want to dig in). I was just looking to kick back with an action novel and this one hurt my brain.
