Female named Blake

Revisado: 07-01-24

I’m not really fond a female lead man. The characters first name Blake was misleading.

Not good

Revisado: 01-22-20

A very contrived story line at best. Not my type of book. Maybe for someone else.

Narrator

Revisado: 01-20-19

It's really amazing what a great narrator can do with a book. Keith is that narrator. I think if Keith had narrated the other Joe Weber books they would have had better reviews

narrator

Revisado: 01-19-19

The story was a bit contrived, the narrator was terrible with his whining fighter pilots. Russians on PMS and perpetual whining dumb Cubans

poorly researched, juvenile presentation

Revisado: 01-26-18

What disappointed you about Strike Force Alpha?

Poorly researched, weapons and tactics kind of hokey. Story not quite believable. I'm not PC but in the description of the level of "blackness" of the covert team being "if any darker they would be picking cotton". With today's highly technical Special forces writers it doesn't measure up.

What could Mack Maloney have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

more research, better story line.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

He didn't really, the story detracted from his ability

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

By the level of today's writers, disapointment

Any additional comments?

I won't read anything by this author again.

Very little plot

Revisado: 09-03-13

What disappointed you about Fifty Shades Darker?

The story is 19 hours of whiney gratuitous sex with little or no plot. The first book was marginally better. I read the first book out of curiosity and don't have a clue why I got the second. I've never read novels for the lovelorn, but I would guess this is a good fit for women who never date and are looking for a Prince to come along. After hearing about the book I should have known better.

What do you think your next listen will be?

I wish Vince Flynn were still with us.

Did Becca Battoe do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Yes

Any additional comments?

Ana is a box of rocks when it comes to understanding the obvious. I can't believe that James made $95 million dollars last year on this drivel.
