About this listen

In the rip-roaring tradition of Red Dawn and The Dirty Dozen, this action-packed thriller from Lt. Col. Hunter Ripley Rip Rawlings IV takes all-American patriotism to an explosive new level....

Assault by Sea

US Marine Tyce Asher knew his fighting days were over when he lost his leg in Iraq. He thought hed never see action again - certainly not on American soil - until the Russians attacked us by sea....

Assault by Land

With so many troops stationed in the Middle East, the US government is counting on Tyce and other reserve fighters to step up and defend their country - when Russian boots hit the ground....

Assault by Fire

This is much more than a surprise attack. It is a full-fledged invasion orchestrated by a military mastermind hellbent on destruction. As the Russians move inland, killing and maiming, Tyce has to enlist every patriot he can find - seasoned vets, armchair warriors, backwoods buckshooters, even mountain moonshiners - to unleash their Second Amendment rights...on America's number-one enemy.

Good story and storytelling

Narration was a little meh since most of the people sounded the same, but there are definitely worse. Pretty good story and well written with good characters that hopefully get more developed in future stories.

great action overcomes a dubious story premise

This was a good listen. while the idea the US could be overcome in such a nature as demonstrated in this story send a fantastical, the characters and the action over came. good listen

Fast paced like a racehorse

This book was incredible! I listen to at least 12 books a year while walking the dog, and heard about it in passing in the latest jack Ryan Jr novel. It’s exciting, gripping and well written and read. I can’t wait to hear what’s next!

I cut my losses and bailed early

I love the idea of a wounded warrior being a protagonist in a book like this. I couldn't, however, get past the trite political stereotype of a liberal POTUS, and the questions that came up in my mind about the order in which things unfolded. Can't we just ditch the politics and simply write a good story? The plot was a little too fantastical for me, and the political pandering made it way too simplistic. I shut it down right after the Oval Office was destroyed, and found a novel by a smarter writer to listen to.

I really enjoyed it!

This book was not what I expected, and a great surprise.
It was so refreshing to read a book where the USA has been attacked and the hero was not a perfect human specimen.
Looking forward to the next books
