Book Description

December 26, 2006

Bobby Autry has always been a maverick. One of the best pilots in America's elite helicopter unit, nobody expected Autry to succeed when he was ordered to create a unit that could fly better than the Nightstalkers, shoot better than the SEALs, and think smarter than the CIA, but he delivered. He never cared about stepping on toes, only on getting results.

But now Autry faces his biggest test. In the past, his strength as a soldier was in being able to operate independently, autonomously, without oversight. But now, he might have to take it one step further--he might actually have to break the law to get the job done.

Autry has discovered a new threat to America, and it's coming from the inside. After intercepting a cache of weapons, he discovers that their destination is to be within one of America's biggest cities. A group of anarchists, hoping to fan of the flames of a politically-divided country, intends to transform the World Economic Summit into a war zone. With the time ticking down and government beuracracy slowing down the required response, Autry knows that the only way to defend his country is to break the law, arm his renegades, and pre-empt an insurrection on his own soil. If he isn't killed, he's almost certainly be court martialed, but caring about the rules was never Autry's style...

5.0 out of 5 stars L.A. Massacre oh joy!, January 24, 2007
This review is from: Sky Hunters: Anarchy's Reign (Mass Market Paperback)
I ran across the first of this series,X-BATTALION, and bought it because of the title. After reading it I found that I liked it, so I went on to the second one, OPERATION SOUTHWRN CROSS, and went directly to the FINAL one, ANARCHY'S REIGN. I will get back to that word FINAL in a moment.
These book are action filled like many other techno war books. However what separates this series is the character developement. Autry,Mungo,and McCune are fully define
men, men with definite character flaws. These flaws plus the idea of bucking the system are the things that make this series interesting. ANARCHY'S REIGN takes place in L.A. It is fun that the action takes place on American soil. The only hope to save L.A. are the SKY HUNTERs, but they are disbanded it because they are too good and the other services hate them. They are a loose cannon that can't be trusted. Needless
to
say like in the other two novels they win because they are un predictable.

Now that word FINAL!!! After reading this book, I screamed and threw the book across the room. For you see the author ends this series with this book. All those great characters will not return. The funny part of all this is that I went to the author's web page and wrote him a letter telling him how I felt. He answered my email!! Yes hesaid this was the end, but that I ahould try out his other works by his other name Jack Moloney of the WINGMAN series, STARHAWKE series, and the CHOPPER OPS series. I have read these and they are almost good enough to make me forgive him for killing this series. ALMOST but no!

5.0 out of 5 stars Could happen in the real world, January 9, 2007

This review is from: Sky Hunters: Anarchy's Reign (Mass Market Paperback)
I started this book and the next thing I know I am 126 pages in it. The story line came together really fast and kept you moving thru the book like a rocket ship. Some of the plot goes about a possible attack on the U. S. Homeland during a time when many of the World leaders are together.
Then all chaos breaks out. Of course the good guys save the day. But there is one line in the book that really sticks out to me that makes me think about the real world and the fights we are having. Maybe this last Election will start the end of our country? Think about it, one side wants to give in and the other side wants to win the war on terror. The glue that holds our country together is loosing. Hopefully people will realize that the enemy wants to kill us all. It maybe only a book but it does compare to the real world at times. I personally like to win the war on terror compared to losing. Jack keep on writing

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! How about 10 stars?, January 12, 2007
By 
Frank Burrell (Aurora, Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sky Hunters: Anarchy's Reign (Mass Market Paperback)
I picked up this third and final installment of the X-Battalion series and couldn't put it down. Jack Shane's writing always moves along at a quick pace, but he's set this one at warp factor 5. The action is non-stop and the plot twists come fast and furious. Basically the story of what a special forces commander does on his last day of duty -- i.e. saving LA from being destroyed -- the book is also surprisingly poignant, especially in the last few pages. Shane's underlying theme is that despite the bravery and skills of the US military, the politicians and big business have screwed us all, and because of this, the American Empire is finished. No argument there.
