Publisher's summary

From the best-selling author of the Wingman series comes the first book in an action-packed series featuring the Superhawks, an ultra-secret team of patriotic US military specialists who declare war against every terrorist connected to the attacks of 9/11.

Their mission was to kill bin Laden. They wound up saving the world. Assembled by mysterious superspy Bobby Murphy, trained by the best and ignoring the generals and the politicians, the Superhawks become America's ruthless answer to the post-9/11 reality. Hidden aboard the Ocean Voyager, a floating airbase disguised as a rusty containership, this ultra-elite unit of assault troops carries out brazen, daring raids all over the Persian Gulf as it seeks its number-one target: al-Qaeda's master mission planner. When chatter comes in about the next big thing, it's up to the Superhawks to strike out with all their fury to stop the deadliest terrorists in history from taking out the free world.

sacrifices of our service members

I loved this book..not only tells of black ops..but the tremendous sacrifices our military makes to keep our country safe for those of us back home so we can live in a free country..am so grateful to these wonderfully brave folks and their families for their service, commitment and honor..may God bless them for their sacrifices...I come from such a family of whom I am so very proud..Huge a lover of Vince Flynn books. for all who appreciate our military!!!

poorly researched, juvenile presentation

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.
