This novel is action-packed from the beginning. A North Korean nuclear attack on the United States and the expectation of retaliation trigger a fascinating plot in this political and espionage thriller.

Thank you for your interesting and honest review! Marco's journey sounds incredible. Politics is generally a messy game and I can imagine only how the game of loyalties will play out. Ironically the romance aspect you mention as "cheesy" in your review, I believe is actually quite apt in politics. Certain cheesy strategies are used as bait , even in romantic ( truly lustful) encounters. Congratulations 🎊 to the author!

Thanks for your insightful review, The novel is at once a political thriller and an espionage story with a touch of romance, though am not a fan of political thrillers. but I enjoyed reading your review.

Insightful and honest review! The romance part not being as well done as the espionage one, I will pass this.

It's a good review containing all elements needed to represent a book or a novel, using meaningful words and vocabulary describing the mean characters.

I quite enjoy the books written by Noah Bond usually, but unfortunately this book is an exception, because "bringing a nuclear message of Jihad" is definitely not something I have any desire to read about, mostly due to high chances of such a scenario turning into reality. Apologies, I prefer to pass, but still congratulations on BOTD!

This will certainly be a good read. Reading about how North Korea carried out a nuclear attack on the United States is quite frightening, but I would like to read the intriguing story. Thank you for the great review.

The book sounds interesting and action-packed. And though the book has a touch of romance which is very appealing, books with politics and espionage are not my cup of tea. Still I'm sure the book will find its reader. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

I don't really like political thrillers but I think I'm going to try this one. It seems like it could have alot of intrigue and action and that's normally a plus for me. Thanks for a detailed review.

*All the targets* by Noah Bond, is an interesting book that will keep readers on and off their seats because of the political thriller, suspense and the romance in the storyline but it is disappointing though that "the romance passages is stereotyped". Congrats to the Author for the BOTD!
Thank You for the wonderful review.

The prologue sets the stage for Marco's journey into the world, and right from the beginning, something is captivating about his character. The author skillfully weaves together qualities and a storyline that make it easy for anyone to fall in love with Marco.

Can't say that the storyline is very original, but there is a saving grace since I am familiar with the author's other books and find them very interesting to read. I really hope there will be some new spin to the old tale of the attack on America and going to find out at the first opportunity. Congrats with BOTD!

I wonder how Marco and Meghan unveil the truth behind the nuclear attack and deal with the aftermath.
