World War III is a month old. After attacking and sinking the Destroyer USS Stacy Heath, the Chinese invade Tibet, and India counterattacks. Rather than allow the Chinese to seize control of the subcontinent, the US sends 20,000 US soldiers and Marines in to join the fight. The Russians invade Ukraine, which leaves NATO with no choice but to respond. A full-fledged ground war begins.

American forces are spread thin, and the decision is made to evacuate all personnel from Afghanistan. Troops have already begun to pull out, when Air Force JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller) Dan Falco receives orders to kill a ruthless Taliban leader named Noor Mohammad Hashemi. But it won't be easy.

Meanwhile, 7,000 miles to the north, the Russians are holding a training exercise called Red Ice. Except that it isn't a training exercise, and if American forces fail to stop the enemy, the Russians will land on American soil. An accomplishment that would be a tremendous blow to American morale and would suck much-needed resources away from the conflicts in Europe and Asia.

Army Air Force and even Coast Guard personnel will do their best to push the Russians back. But will their best be good enough?

Narrator could’ve been better the storyline was slow in developing and taking two books to complete the story just seem like it was unnecessary. That’s ice and flood.

I loved the way that the author made a plausible explanation of the beginning of the war to end all wars…
The characters drew me in and felt believable.

WWW3 starts

I liked this book more it went on. There are some very cool and unique ideas and scenes in it, often a bit ridiculous but overall fun and fresh. The narrator sounds fine when it's people joking around at a base, but doesn't really bring up the intensity during the action. The frantic radio calls are a specific weak point, just comes off a bit flat overall.

Gets better as it goes

Love the action with the different branches of the military engaged in an operation by the Russians to attack the United States in Alaska. Great character development and a wonderful start to a new series.

Great start to WW3 Series

I wouldn’t put this book in the realm of Clancy by any stretch but it is a good “working around the house “ listen.

Good book for idle time
