Amid the fear following 9/11 and other recent terror attacks, it is easy to forget the most important fact about terrorist campaigns: the always come to an end - and often far more quickly than expected. Contrary to what many assume, when it comes to dealing with terrorism it may be more important to understand how it ends than how it begins.

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
This might be required reading for a class, otherwise no-one would voluntarily get through it.
Has How Terrorism Ends turned you off from other books in this genre?
Not necessarily.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Unpleasant, squeaky voice. Dry as cardboard narration. Affected accent.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
Not really; the subject is intriguing but the book does not deliver at all. Out of dozens of Audible books I have purchased, this is by far the worst and the only one I did not finish listening to.
Any additional comments?
The content is extremely repetitive, as if required to fill a word quota. The book really doesn't say much.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
