The year is 1992. Over twenty years have passed since Soviet General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev was assassinated by a crazed gunman. Since that time, the Soviet Union has been put on a course toward economic success—and war.

In the Balkans, Yugoslavia's collapse into ethnic violence draws NATO and the Warsaw Pact to the brink of Armageddon. Armies deploy and fleets maneuver. Political intrigue engulfs Moscow and Washington, and paranoia radiates from the Iron Curtain. In the zero-sum game of Cold War, neither side can afford to blink or back down.

A conflict nearly fifty years in the making spills from boardrooms and back alleys and explodes into open battle on land, air, and sea. The showdown of the century is here: East versus West with the future of mankind at stake.

This could have been a great series if the author would have done some research on the capabilities of the United States, Navy and Marine Corps.

Very disappointed

But it was ok. At this point I am not sure if I will listen to the rest of the series.

No Tom Clancy

I enjoyed this first book a lot. Making this review after enjoying the 2nd and third book. As a start to a series this book is pretty great, it's also a good read on its own even if you don't continue the series. This book is though maybe the best of 3 I've read so far. While I personally really loved book 3, I think this one had the best gut wrenching heart beat skipping moments. A solid read.

Good Cold War book
