Markus Stebbings is hiding terminal brain cancer, hoping to remain alive and a part of Delta Force long enough to die for something that matters. The mission to destroy a domestic terrorist cell in possession of a nuclear bomb sounds like the opportunity he is looking for, until he realizes that his targets are not terrorists, and that what they have is something infinitely more dangerous than a bomb.

On the run with Dr. Grace Llewellyn and the device she calls Prometheus, Markus finds himself pitted against the full might of US intelligence and military forces as they mount the biggest manhunt ever conducted on American soil. He quickly learns that Prometheus represents a technological advancement so profound that it can alter the course of history. But there is another such device already in play, and he, Grace, and Prometheus are all that stand between it and the end of human civilization as we know it.

This book was a blast to read. The story kept my interest. The characters were likable and yet flawed, which I felt made them relatable. The underlying premise was interesting and got me thinking. And best of all was the dialogue, which had me laughing out loud harder than any book I have read in a long time. Totally worth a read and a recommendation.

What a fun book!

This book was provided free of charge in expectation of a review.

This book was a surprise. It involved a team of Delta Force soldiers who became involved with scientist in an adventure to protect the scientist and prevent the use of a quantum computer to take over the entire country.

The narrator did an outstanding job and was clear and emotional.

This story is a must listen as it is well written and exciting from beginning to end.

Fun excitement

It's well paced and entertaining, doesn't stray into controversial social issues, and is thought provoking enough to make you keep turning the pages.

An excellent commuter book

I read the paperback, bit was still just as excited and thrilled while listening to it as well. Mike's books are fresh and adventurous and will have you on the edge of your seat, and Theft of Fire is probably one of the best.

Another thrilling Edelson read

What would you do if you were sent on a covert action to stop a group of terrorists and upon arriving, realized something was wrong? Would you carry out your assignment or would you abort and suffer the consequence? You'll have to read the story to find out what Markus does. Filled with non-stop action and a wide-range of characters, this story moves rapidly from one scene to another, leaving the reader with no time for boredom. Throughout the book, you'll want to stop to catch your breath though. The narrator is fantastic and delivers a powerful read, and well-produced audio. Readers of Stuart Woods would likely love this book. I was provided with a free copy for review purposes, which in no way swayed my opinion of the book.

Great action
