About this listen

In the not-too-distant future, the United States loses its status as a world Superpower. With the military cut to a barebones level and American leaders focused solely on the nation's internal struggles, the door will open for new powers to emerge on the world stage. In the wake of this power vacuum, China and Russia begin to flex their military muscles and expand their dominance in the world. They have the most up-to-date technological innovations ready for battle: railguns, unmanned drone tank vehicles, exoskeleton suits, and cyber warfare.

Setting the Stage: The border of India and Pakistan has long been one of the planet's most precarious ticking time bombs waiting to explode, and when a scheme to agitate the tensions in that region is successful, it paves the way for powerful men to begin consolidating authority and start building an Islamic Caliphate. Extremists move from random attacks of violence to plots to take control of positions of political influence. America's usual ally against aggression, Europe, is weakened by economic decline; the U.S is facing this new threat without backup.

In these hazardous times, America will need strong guidance. Henry Stein, a new kind of leader, builds a new political party to lead the charge to bring the country back from the brink. His unconventional style is just what the U.S. needs in order to deal with the changing world balance of power and a worldwide Great Depression. As conflicts near and far began to plague the planet, will President Stein be able to prevent a third world war?

great for some

this book has a lot of military lingo and strategy, it was like a blanket over all of ww111, I was hoping for more of a personal story, following a single person or few people, having to deal with the war on a personal level. but I can see how some would really love this book.

Authors bit off more than they could chew

Overall, a good listen, and worth the effort. My biggest problem was that there was so much going on in the build-up, that I think the authors got lost in the weeds. The most glaring error was the apparent lack of submarine protection of the carrier battle group. Completely unbelievable.

Good story

Cant help but notice the president is a business man from florida who thinks he has all the answers. (Sound familiar??) But unlike the person I am thinking of this president does have good ideas but the almost dog like loyalty he demands is kind of sick. But if you ignore this fact the book does have Alot of action just try to get past a certain point in this book and when you get there you will know what I mean. Stick with it the last few chapters are really action packed and well worth your time

not as technical as I would like

WW3 is more if a political thriller than a techno thriller. the majority of the other types of these books go into deep detail of the weapons and tactics used in the story. not so much here. but still a good start.

It’s all the Democrats Fault lol

Fun, but boy in this alternate reality the democrats are to blame for everything.

It’s like reading Ayn Rand. You can enjoy the story while understanding the writer’s philosophical point is rubbish.
