Why do wars really start?

In Battlefield Ukraine, all the usual suspects are hard at work: battles over resources, money, and miscommunication. This predictive novel explores a potential war between NATO and Russia over the fate of the separatist regions in eastern Ukraine.... You'll hope this realistic scenario doesn't become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Lines have been drawn in the sand, but how firm are they? Will the massive disinformation campaign by the Russians trick the new American administration to do their bidding? Will the new American president back down, or will the world creep one step closer toward global war?

I was interested as this is very similar to current events, but it left you hanging. Lots of what ifs, like this current president could even the No of cleaning house, overall I guess I expected more, not a bad book just like a warm cup of coffee, when you really wanted a hot cup.

Meh…

Was a bit skeptical of this series but I got it on sale and now I can't get enough! A series is only as great as the villains that challenge the heroes. Tom Clancy fans will appreciate the mix of combat, political intrigue, and cyber warfare.

An Excellent Start!

I have always gone for speculative military fiction and so this peaked my interest.

The story/scenario is pretty great but the character building, dialogue, and prose is often lacking. (Some of this I would place in the narrator. Often felt like someone was reading a newspaper more than an article.

I’ll check out the next one but hope the dialogue and character arks get better.

Over one of the better WWIII plausibilities.

Not bad, not Clancy

This book has me hooked and I am now ready to listen to all six. It feels realistic in that the U.S. doesn't dominate and quickly win every political or military conflict.

its a good book, based on a potential future, it's not meant to represent the actual things going on today, it's not the books fault you're too stupid to realize this.

all military fictions get things wrong from time to time and this book is no different. All in all this is pretty good compared to some of the trash out there.

ITS FICTION PEOPLE

Overall the story has a good premise. However its the execution and general knowledge of how these battles are conducted that lacks accuracy. its all to convient how the western allies and intelligence fail at the right moment for the Russian government to succeed.

Accuracy and plot holes

I think lots of people leaving reviews are a bit to harsh because the current war and this story don't match up very well and are themselves in to deep in pro Ukrainian propaganda. when this story was written the view on the Russian military was much different. It's a war story and it wouldn't be a very good one if the Russian army just kept losing.

20/20

This entire story is completely out of touch with the reality at the time it was written and reads like Russian propaganda. Even not knowing what the world knows now about the paper tiger that is the Russian Military and the weak lunatic the leader of Russia really is this story clearly hadn’t done any research before writing this somewhat entertaining but overall poor story.

The author is either completely complicit and on the Kremlin payroll or just a drinker of the koolaid of the Right/Alt-Right Media. The constant use of the term fascist to describe the Ukrainian government as well as the implication that it’s rightfully elected president was connecting to some shadow group of oligarchs is all Russian propaganda talking points. The implication of overwhelming military strategy and technology superiority being in the Russian side instead of NATO especially the US is also a Russian propaganda message. The United States Military is the most technologically advanced in the world the majority of the attacks perpetrated by the Russians would realistically fail catastrophically. The US commander who lacks to recognize what ERA armor is, even in the simplest form, a technology that has been out for decades, is just one example of the lack of realism that makes the story hard to take seriously.

The story is a decent “cosplay”/fictional battle/war story but the lack of character development and weak dialogue really make the story seem shallow and not something to really invest yourself in. The reader did a good job with the material he was provided. His pronunciation and different voices make it easier to listen too.

Overall if you go into this one while keeping in mind that it’s completely out of touch with reality it can be somewhat entertaining if you’re looking for a battle driven story.

A story out of touch with reality, reader works with what he’s given
