About this listen

Without warning, Russia starts an operation to seize control of a vital arctic waterway off the Alaska coast. For hot-wired naval aviator Karen 'Bunny' O'Hare, it's about to be a bad day at the office. Not everyone takes impending nuclear Armageddon as calmly as O'Hare.

From an airfield in Russia, Major-General Bondarev is leading a war he doesn't understand against machines instead of men. Under the US embassy in Moscow, Ambassador Devlin McCarthy discovers she can follow her conscience or the orders of her Secretary of State, but not both. And staggering through the rubble of Saint Lawrence Island, teenager Perri Tungyan learns how far his country is willing to go to protect its national interests.

Fantastic Book!

I truly enjoyed this book. I listened to it on a car ride from Utah back to Reno. I got to my house in Reno and kept listening until it was over!

Great story! I don’t usually listen to futuristic type of books, but this one was unique. It seemed as if it was happening today, but it did have some weapon systems that are not available... Yet!

I didn’t think that I would enjoy a female narrator for a war story, but Lyssa Browne did a great job! I highly recommend this book!

Excellent, suspenseful ...reasonably plausible

I couldn't put this one down. Great characters balanced with great tech, juxtaposed in a captivating plot. In the Navy I flew missions during the Cold War in that area of the world. I couldn't put it down :) Bravo Zulu!

Great Storytelling

Clearly written with well thought out plot lines and interesting subplots and people. I will read more FX books. Recommend this title.

Only criticism is the narrator used no accents for the characters she was portraying and that left something to be desired.

Decent but needs a different narrator.

I enjoyed the first two books, Kobani and Golan. This one felt like more of the same with not much change in substance or style. There are some carry-over characters from the first two books. My main complaint is about the narrator. She has a pleasant voice overall, but she can't do either Australian or Russian accents, but tries to pull it off and fails. Since both of these are pretty important to the main characters I repeatedly wondered "who hired this narrator and why?"

Far fetched but enjoyable.

The Russians want to take over most of Alaska, but a small island helps block their plans. A good listen but a bit unbelievable for now. It’s still a good listen. And I say this Not Liking female narators.

WW 3?

When a female narrator started the book, I didn't know if I would like it; wasn't sure a woman's voice could pull it off. She is super easy to listen to, but does a terrible man's voice; thus, the rating of 4. The story is a little farfetched, but scarily on the verge of being plausible. I hope Holden comes out with a book 4.
