Being a reader of crime, military, and war stories, I you enjoy fast-paced books. It sounds well written and interesting. I'll try listening to this audiobook, as I am a fan of this genre. Thanks you so much for the concise review.

While I'm not a fan of war and military stories, the review makes me think the book contains much more than that. I like that it has a first person narrative, as it helps the reader to connect better with the character. I'm curious to see how Mark's life changes after he discovers the death ray. Thanks for the great review.

I think it would be a great recommendation to me as I love war stories. I evenly have watched movies on war as FURY and many more. I will also reply when I will completely read it.

:tiphat: Thanks for your attribute.
this book seems like a documentary movie, recently I started a war book, so this book is 2nd part for me and I definitely go for it.

I do like fast-paced crime/war thrillers sometimes; however, it would be great to first know more about the plot development before I make a decision. Still, I like that the author took inspiration from real-life characters in his story, as it makes the story more realistic.

Having never read a war and military fiction novel, this seems full on actio. Exactly genre. I also love the fact that there's an audible version. Great review.

Sounds like a book a political enthusiast will enjoy reading. This could be adapted to a movie too. Thanks for the review.

I must say that the book's title is somehow scary, but at the same time appealing to those who like war stories. Since I'm a fan of this kind of genre, I'm adding it to my list of favorite books to read. Thanks for your insightful review.

I'm not into fast-paced novel packed with crime, military, political and power game but the love aspect is much enticing which is drowning me deeply into the book.
Thanks for the review!

A military book about a death ray sounds very exciting. I would love to read about how Mark deals with this discovery. Thank you for the interesting review.
