Too much detail

Revisado: 10-09-23

An interesting story, but way way way too much detail, especially since it is the start of a trilogy. I won’t be reading the rest of it.

Good but too drawn out

Revisado: 01-13-23

Very interesting but I felt that the same info could have been provided in perhaps two thirds the time.

Disappointing

Revisado: 06-01-21

This book was recommended to me strongly but I was very disappointed. The political dynamic with various enemies coordinating their actions against the US was interesting, but many of the military developments were frankly ridiculous. The Chinese ambushing and then sinking a small American naval flotilla with a comprehensive cyber attack is certainly feasible, but the story began falling apart for me when we send the entire 7th Fleet into the South China Sea before figuring out what had happened earlier or how to defend against it - and the entire fleet is sunk. I thought India’s pivotal military role, able to detect and destroy both American and Chinese ships and aircraft at will, later in the conflict also to be highly unlikely. All in all, it was frankly puzzling to have this the work of a such a distinguished military officer as Admiral Stavridis.
