About this listen

DEFCON Three: forces on standby, awaiting further orders
DEFCON Two: forces ready for combat
DEFCON One: forces deployed for combat

In this explosive best seller, the United States and the Soviet Union are poised on the brink of Armageddon. Glasnost has failed, Russia is economically desperate, and Gorbachev's successor has launched the first strike in what may become World War III. Only one man knows the full extent of the impending horror - a CIA operative trapped in the Kremlin.

Written by a former Marine Corps pilot, DEFCON One is a blistering scenario of men and war - exciting, tense, and frighteningly real.

More twists and turns than a mountain road.

plenty of twists and turns, the narrator did a good job as well.
I'd rate this just behind a Tom Clancy novel.

Great Military Thriller

Well written, well narrated; a great Clancy style military thriller. I really don't get the narration complaints in other reviews.

Next Level Book!

Ok so i’ve listened to dozens of books on audible and when i tell you this is the first review i’ve written it’s because this book had my mind going big time! I found myself holding breath at times without noticing because i was so caught up in what was happening. I even yelled “shoot em!” a few different times out loud when i felt like the 2 spies were about to get caught! Listen, this is by far the best book i’ve heard. The narrator was on point, it felt like several different people were talking and not just one person. I can’t say enough good things about this. I’m sure I will listen to it another time or two just because it was so amazing. Wow, well done people, well done.

Great story!

I served in Mississippi and Eisenhower. Loved hearing the names. Submarine tactics not realistic in my opinion.

a bit far fetched

is a caricature of soviets, but an entertaining non the less. Well read and easy to listen to.
