ISIS is on the rampage, and the slaughter of the innocents has begun. The Islamists have an agenda, the creation of a Sunni Islamic Caliphate across Iraq and Syria. A Caliphate that will turn the Middle East into a field of corpses. They must be halted, before their blood-soaked crusade becomes unstoppable. Yet the US government refuses a full-scale military response, and the Iraqi government is too weak to act. The problem is passed to the Navy Seals. Chief Petty Officer Kyle Nolan and Seal Team Bravo infiltrate Iraq. The mission, to eliminate the ISIS kingpin inside his Tikrit powerbase. They penetrate the town, but before they can make the hit, they uncover a secret that could change everything. ISIS has a weapon with the potential to cause the deaths of countless millions. A weapon they are about to deploy. With the clock counting down to annihilation, the Bravo operatives are forced to put their lives on the line to halt the genocidal attack. This is a thrilling and bloody story of US Navy SEALs, trained to go to any lengths to complete their mission. SEAL Team Black Ops Hammer of ISIS is by the bestselling author of many other Spec Ops stories. These include Raider Black Crisis Ukraine, previous SEAL Team Bravo titles, as well as the Echo Six and Devil's Guard series.
Audiobook: I enjoyed this story as much as the others in the series. The story opened on an edge-of-my seat moment and continued with constant action from that point on. As the Seals rushed from one incident to the next, my own nerves ratcheted upwards until I too started feeling the tension. My admiration for Chief Nolan continued to increase with each heroic action. I thought Roy Wells' narration was great as his performance reflected the seriousness and intensity of the story, I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
It all started down hill from there. A seal team leader has vetted abilities. This Lt. would not even make it in the regular Navy. A 28 year old female Lt. Commander, Academy graduates don't reach that rank that fast. Improbable actions in fire fights and bad guys all fantasizing leading the all Muslim world. TOO MUCH!
It took toward the end of the book for Kyle to "get the girl" this time but he came through. Another Navy Seal kill fest only this time there was rescue mission thrown in along with a betrayal. Ultimately another fun fast read.
Actually, when I read this book, I can believe it really happened. The author makes it real in the characters and with current events. My prayers are for these USA Navy seals. God bless&protect them!
