 Good first novel, September 10, 2008

Rosenberg's first novel is a pretty good thriller. His action scenes are fast paced and thrilling, even though he crowds in a lot of technical details about weapons. I read these scenes rapidly, eager to find out who would live and who would not.
He also includes a geopolitical story line, which tends to slow the book down. When the hero sits in a on a presidential cabinet meeting my attention began to wander. This part of the story was less interesting. It was also less believable.
The novel sustained my interest through to the end. The action slowed at times, but never stopped. The characters were believable enough. They were described in about as much depth as one would expect from an action novel. This first novel does not rise to the level of Tom Clancy, but it is a good start. I think Rosenberg compares favorably with authors like Vince Flynn.

 Good political thriller, August 26, 2008

Joel Rosenberg kept me up late turning pages to see how it ended. Then I had to order the second in the series to find out how the story continued. I plan on getting all of his books to continue the story.

Another great book using religious texts to provide wonderful insight into what may be going on in the world. Many of the fictional events have become actual reality!

Very realistic book - exciting!, July 25, 2008

This is a great book! Quite a bit like a vintage Tom Clancy or maybe Clive Cussler but more believable. I really liked it and am planning to read the rest of the series.
