Publisher's summary

The most dangerous man in the world is back.

David Morrell's First Blood introduced Rambo, who joined the ranks of Sherlock Holmes, Tarzan, James Bond, and Harry Potter as an international thriller icon. In this sequel, Rambo is in prison for his one-man war against a small-town police chief. His former commanding officer, Colonel Trautman, arrives with a promise to release him, with two conditions. First, Rambo must return to the Vietnamese prison camp from which he escaped and find the missing Americans rumored to be prisoners there. The second condition? Don't rescue the prisoners. Only bring back photographs. Under no circumstances engage the enemy. For Rambo, the first part is difficult. But the second is impossible. This novelization and the film have many differences. Listen to the story that the film could have had.

"David Morrell is, to me, the finest thriller writer living today, bar none."
--Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Columbus Affair

"Morrell, an absolute master of the thriller, plays by his own rules and leaves you dazzled."
--Dean Koontz, New York Times bestselling author of 77 Shadow Street

"The father of the modern action novel."
--Vince Flynn, New York Times bestselling author of Kill Shot

Better than the movie.

If only the movie had followed the book. I love the movie but this blew it away.

Better than the movie! Felt kinda like Metal Gear Solid 3

This book was surprisingly well done! I don’t know what I was expecting, considering that the movie was a little over the top and kind of unbelievable. But this book took pains to make Rambo a more sympathetic and believable character. It was really cool getting to see him break bad in Vietnam one last time. and, as an added bonus, this book had some very strong Metal Gear Solid 3 vibes, somehow written long before Metal Gear was a thing

Another great performance and story!

Where does Rambo rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Not the best by any means, but certainly enjoyable.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rambo?

The suspense and action

Which character – as performed by Eric G. Dove – was your favorite?

The Rambo character for sure - Once again, Eric Dove did a great job at making Rambo sound just like Sylvester Stallone did in the movies.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Action packed thriller!

Any additional comments?

If you enjoyed the Rambo Film series, it's almost a certainty that you'll enjoy the book as well.

Great Job !!

What a strange to have to write a book. But it was really amazing how well it turned out. Considering how First Blood ended. I enjoyed bringing Rambo back to life .

Incredible

The story America needs to hear again. Protecting your fellow man. Props to David Morrell for writing a superior version of the script and being willing to resurrect his character.
