5.0 out of 5 stars Another winner in this unbeatable series, June 15, 2000

This review is from: Talon Force: Secret Weapon (Paperback)

As in all of Cliff's books, the action never stops from page one to the last. The advances in military technology, human character development and plot is first rate, keeps the page turning until the end. If action-pack high-tech thrillers are what you like, then this is the book for you. Just be prepared to stay up real late to finish it within one day.....it's that good!

Mr Garnett writes a realistic yet thrilling story of how a commando rescue might be carried out in a hostile country. His description of small unit fire and maneuver techniques, special forces hardware and planning are all incrediably believable. The political and situational hypothesis of the enemy country are also highly accurate. Combine all these with heart-stopping fire-fights and you have one hell of a read.

You won't be disappointed!
