Publisher's summary
An American general is captured by Islamic extremists in the Middle East. They threaten to behead him within days. One strange fact: Moments before he is rendered unconscious during the attack, the general notices that his unseen captors speak American English. What's going on?
Gunnery Sergeant Kyle Swanson, a top level marine sniper, is vacationing on a boat in the Mediterranean when he receives orders to mount a top-secret mission to rescue the general. But as he and his men prepare to land in the Iraqi desert, they immediately come under ferocious attack, and Swanson is the only man left alive. How did the enemy know details of a mission known only to a few top government officials?
Swanson takes off across the desert alone to find the captured general and realizes he is fighting a particularly ruthless and dangerous enemy: American mercenaries working for a very high-level group of American officials with ties to the White House itself, part of a clandestine conspiracy whose hidden agenda is nothing less than total control of the American military. Their sworn enemy is the captured general whose fate now rests in Sniper Swanson's hands.
Full of the kind of action author Jack Coughlin lived during his career as a marine sniper, Kill Zone marks the debut of an extraordinary writing team.

Story
The President of the United States can’t decide how to respond to a classified video showing the Taliban’s brutal treatment of their captive - a female helicopter pilot of the Army’s elite Special Operations Aviation Regiment. Afraid that a botched rescue will further destabilize foreign policy and end his presidency, the Commander-in-Chief falters. But when the Special Ops community learns that one of their own is being tortured and will almost certainly be killed, no executive order will stop them from attempting a rescue mission.

Story
Vick "The Reaper" Harwood is an esteemed sniper with a record kill count - 33 kills in 90 days - when he is knocked out under mortar attack in Afghanistan. He wakes up back in the United States with little memory of what happened, his spotter and gun both unrecovered from the battlefield. Harwood has resigned himself to slowly picking up the pieces of his life. But when a series of assassinations start occurring in the area, Harwood can't explain why he just happens to be nearby for each killing - or how a sniper rifle that matches the description of the one he lost seems to be involved.

Story
America is under attack. Thousands lie dead after simultaneous strikes across the country. The day will come to be known as Bloody Monday. Jason Trapp, codename ‘Hangman’, was a covert operative whose feats became the stuff of legend. He was the tip of the spear—the man his country unleashed when all hope was lost. Six months ago, someone sold him out. The Agency listed him as killed in action. He lost everything—and everyone—he held dear. But Trapp’s not that easy to kill.

Okay second half but this didn’t click for me
This book started rather slowly for me. There was a lot of cringe, groans, tropes and rants to begin and if this book had still been in my return window it might have been a DNF. But I persisted and the second half was okay with fairly constant action. What I like was the relatively constant action in the second half. What I didn’t like was several things. First, I really didn’t like the Kyle Swanson character - he just didn’t click for me. There were no other lead characters that I cared about either. Second, there was a lot of unrealistic behaviors. Of course you have to suspend your sense of reality with thriller books like these but there were several instances in which characters didn’t respond in the way they would certainly have in those situations. Third, there was a pervasive feeling of juvenile joke cartoonishness, as if the author was trying a bit too hard to appeal to a certain kind of reader. That said, if you do read this book, plow through because it does get better. Still I doubt that I will continue this series. There are a lot of better options in this genre. Lastly, I have to say that I did not like Luke Daniels as narrator. His voice for Kyle Swanson only made Swanson sound even more annoying than he otherwise would have, and many of his other characters sounded cartoonish.

Regretfully Late to The Party
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
ABSOLUTELY! If you like the Mitch Rapp books by Vince Flynn or the Scot Harvath series by Brad Thor you will love this series of books featuring Kyle Swanson. Kill Zone was a great lead-off book!
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Yes! I listen to audiobooks while putting in long miles on a bicycle. The suspense the authors built up had me so totally lost in the story I missed turns and forgot where I was. The story was very well executed and full of twists and turns.
What does Luke Daniels bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Very easy to distinguish between all the voices of the characters. He brought just the right amount of emotion to each character where appropriate.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I listened while riding the bike, commuting in the car, doing laundry, vacuuming and even through a speaker while in the shower so yes, I guess you could say it was close to in one sitting!
Any additional comments?
I am so sorry I'm so late to this series. Finished book 2 which was just as good and have book 3 ready to go after I finish re-listening to The Wastelands Dark Tower 3. Highly recommend it!

Kyle Swan makes me proud to be an American
What did you love best about Kill Zone?
My first Kyle Swan story. The story was good, maybe a little far-fetched, but not totally out of the question that major military companies could try to influence gov in their direction. Also, I know there are progressives out there that want to write a new constitution. Combine that with a billionaire and there could be trouble.
What did you like best about this story?
The concept of BIG military business trying for a coup. Don't think for a minute that America would buy that, but it is cause to think. The excalibur technology and the scram jet were fun to read.
What aspect of Luke Daniels’s performance would you have changed?
The country bumpkin accent for Kyle's character.It was distracting.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Not really moving, but I liked the aspect of Kyle that had him tell a general to shut up and let him do his job so they both could survive.

Luke Daniels not a great narrator
Daniels does a wide range of characters but all of the characters in a high ranking position sound exactly the same. Which is an attempt at a gravelly voice. It sounds forced and became a distraction for me. Other than that it’s a good story.

Good, not great, distracting mispronouncions
The story was good, although a few times the opposing side magically clued into things without having any clues. I would have given the narrator 5 stars if it weren't for annoying mispronouniations. In a story involving sheiks, it was super distracting to repeatedly hear them called "shakes" (really? Who doesn't know that?!)). Valet should trade the "t" for any "aye" and macabre zhould drop the "r!" Other than mispronunciations, the narrator was great at different voices, inflections and telling the story.

Excellent story
Where does Kill Zone rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
It has a great story line with some real fantasy crap but it works everything into the story nicely.
How could the performance have been better?
The reader is an idiot. Learn the English language and proper pronunciation of words.
