Violence and tensions along the US-Mexican border have never been higher, sparked by battles between rival drug lords and an increased flow of illegal migrants. To combat the threat, the United States has executed Operation Rampart: a controversial test base in southern California run by Major Jason Richter and TALON, his high-tech special operations unit.

Some performances are just too painful to listen
Revisado: 06-15-16
What would have made Edge of Battle better?
A different reader with better voices
What was most disappointing about Dale Brown’s story?
It just dragged on and combined with the performance of the narrator I felt like driving my car into a tree.
Would you be willing to try another one of Michael McShane’s performances?
Not while I can hear.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Edge of Battle?
I can't say as I did not finish the book.

Mr. Bowden does his homework
Revisado: 11-02-05
"Black Hawk Down" gives the listener/reader a glimpse into the mind of the professional soldiers that make up Delta Force and the United States Army Rangers. "I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy and under no circumstances will I ever embarrass my country." These are dedicated, selfless, heroic men and Mr. Bowden has done his best to put the story of this part of their history forward for us.

Historia
On a remote Arizona ranch, a man who has known loss, fear, and war weeps for the first time since he was a child. His tears are for the father taken from him four decades before in a deadly shoot-out. And his grief will lead him back to the place where he was born, where his father died, and where a brutal conspiracy is about to explode. For Bob Lee Swagger, the world changed on that hot day in Blue Eye, Arkansas, when two local boys rode armed and wild in a '55 Fairlane convertible.

Another great Stephen Hunter offiering
Revisado: 11-02-05
You got to love what Stephen Hunter does with plot twists. This one has the listener/reader going until the end. Bob "The Nailer" is back and there is no end to the excitement. A very good listen that will keep you hanging.

Dreadful
Revisado: 09-15-05
Darren McGavin is difficult to understand at best in this rendition of "The Bourne Ultimatim" which makes for a long and difficult listening experience. His ability to switch voices is limited and thus leads to considerable confusion for the listener. Combine this with a very poor recording and music mixing and it is just not worth the listeners time or investment. The abridgement is extreme and the story line suffered. I was not going to finish but held on hoping it would improve toward the end, it didn't. I will read the book to see just how much I missed.
If this had been done as well as the Bourne Legacy it would have been great.
