Historia
From the outside, America looks safe and secure. But those on the inside know the truth. Friends can be enemies… and enemies friends. Uncovering threats is only half the battle. Knowing who to trust is the rest. On a mission far from home, “Axe” and the team face an enemy they never dreamed of. While at the Central Analysis Group headquarters, physical scars heal more easily than damage to the soul.

Excessive introspection.
Revisado: 04-26-25
This is not an action thriller. It’s about feelings, inner thoughts and misgivings of mission operatives. As a combat veteran I never entertained the emotional mindset and inattention to details of the main characters portrayed by the writer. I found the story painfully slow and often times caught up in irrelevant boring material. The story has potential for a riveting action thriller, but I had a difficult time staying awake. The overall performance by the reader is excellent and actually builds interest in an often times empty segment. The reader does a spectacular job bringing the characters to life and maintains the correct pace and inflection to build each story segment. I’m not recommending this story.

Historia
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.

Can our government be undermined by powerful people?
Revisado: 12-17-24
A story birthed in our times. The plot is definitive, and paced to provide the reader with the necessary information to lead the reader into each phase of the story, without redundancy and over the top information, which can stall the delivery and momentum of the story. The narration held my interest, and provided the appropriate character visualization. I plan to read the Trapp series.

Never is an extraordinary novel, full of heroines and villains, false prophets and elite warriors, jaded politicians and opportunistic revolutionaries. It brims with cautionary wisdom for our times, and delivers a visceral, heart-pounding story that transports listeners to the brink of the unimaginable.

Underdeveloped story - not one of Ken Fillet’s best
Revisado: 10-25-24
This story read as a cut and paste attempt with little if any content development. Well written thrillers have a plot, we’ll developed players, which lead the reader through the story, create the suspense and execute the plot. This story was devoid of all these elements. Therefore, I can’t recommend this book as a must read, five star production.

Historia
In American Marxism, Mark Levin explained how Marxist ideology has invaded our society and culture. In doing so, he exposed the institutions, scholars, and activists leading the revolution. Now, he picks up where he left off: to hold responsible the true malefactors steering our country down the wrong path. Insightful and hard-hitting as ever, Levin proves that since its establishment, the Democrat Party has set out to rewrite history and destroy the foundation of freedom in America.

A sobering required reading
Revisado: 10-15-23
American classrooms surgically removed the historical report contained in this book. If you call yourself an American and shroud yourself in the presumed freedoms and American way of life. This book will shock you. It shocked me! Mark Levin lays out truths, that although not congruent to main stream American conscience is undermining all that America is. And all that Americans have over the course if its rich history paid more dearly than any other country in the history of mankind. A little over two centuries ago we the people fought to free ourselves from the clutches of totalitarian rule. In this book Mark shows the steady unpacking of an evil and sinister plan to return us back to the state of serfdom we the people chose to distance ourselves from. And are surprisingly succeeding. I strongly recommend this book. It will provide you insight, knowledge and a clear understanding to the vision and direction the Democrat Party is now taking America. And creating a new government - not for us, but for the dark power brokers whose single goal is to destroy the United States and permanently remove it from being the icon of a free nation and a lifestyle of unlimited opportunity and prosperity. I guarantee you will not be able to put this book down once you begin reading. Because the information herein will arm you with a roadmap of the real truth hidden from us. This book will also shame you that we the people are allowing this to happen - and doing nothing to stop a powerful political party, who loathes the hard working American. If you hate America and all of its benevolent deeds over the last two centuries. Don’t waste your money and time reading about a process and ideology that if unstopped - will adversely change the lives of all Americans - forever.

Historia
Increasingly astronomers recognize that if the cosmos had not unfolded exactly as it did, humanity would not, could not, exist. Yet, these researchers - along with countless ordinary folks - resist belief in the biblical creator. Why? They say a loving God would have made a better home for us, one without trouble and tragedy. In Why the Universe Is the Way It Is, Hugh Ross draws from his depth of study in both science and Scripture to explain how the universe's design fulfills several distinct purposes.

A valued instruction, well worth the listening
Revisado: 02-19-23
Prior to listening to this book I entertained a bias that it would be a typical monotonous lecture. But I held out hope to glean some modicum of information to which I could use. However, to the contrary Dr.Ross delivered a captivating, informative and interesting story. One to which compelled me to play and replay sections to absorb both context and interpretive value of factual information presented. I strongly recommend this thesis to any person desiring to obtain a valued understanding of God, his creation, and our purpose as human beings in God’s master plan for the universe. I rated Dr. Ross’s work five stars in all categories. I believe you will do the same. It is a true masterpiece. One that is well researched, developed and presented.

Historia
In this New York Times best seller, David Limbaugh exposes the liberal hypocrisy of promoting political correctness while discriminating against Christianity. From the elimination of school prayer to the story of Christianity in America being eradicated from history textbooks, this persuasive book shows that our social engineers inculcate hostility toward Christianity and its values in the name of diversity, tolerance, and multiculturalism.

You can’t argue with the facts!
Revisado: 10-08-22
This is a well researched and written book grounded in unarguable fact. I did not find this a burdensome Biblical documentary. David Limbaugh clarified some of the gray and otherwise not well reported areas that Christian believers to include myself are a shareholder. I found David is able to present truth as a function of man’s deviant behavior in conflict with God’s plan. That is a difficult pursuit and one avoided by our mainstream churches. If there are a few voids in your understanding of the spiritual powers and principalities we fight. Then I believe you will find this book refreshing, stimulating and corrective in providing you in the Christian grounding relative to our carnal walk.

Historia
Peter Schweizer says that, in a quarter-century as an investigative journalist, this is the scariest investigation he has ever conducted. That the Chinese government seeks to infiltrate American institutions is hardly surprising. What is wholly new, however, are the number of American elites who are eager to help the Chinese dictatorship in its quest for global hegemony.

A mind blowing revelation
Revisado: 06-21-22
One of the best written, factual books I’ve read this year. This should be required reading for all true red-blooded Americans. Schweitzer presents the real behind the curtain truths and activities concealed from the general public of a cancerous takeover of our government by those who’ve misrepresented themselves to us for the purpose of personal gain. This book will better arm the reader on the nefarious agenda of powerful traitors currently executing plans to destroy the United States from within. The names of these individuals you know. But their diabolical plans will terrify you.

Two armed men board a 727 that has been all but forgotten at an airfield in Angola. Hijacking the jet, they then slit the throat of the lone crew and fly to parts unknown. The consternation is immediate, as the CIA, FBI, and other agencies race to find out what happened, in the process elbowing one another in the sides a little too vigorously. Fed up, the president of the United States turns to an outside investigator to determine the truth.

Gripping Story
Revisado: 03-14-22
Griffin has the knack and understanding to choregraph the driving elements of a story into realistic existence. The story pulled me from the beginning into what I believed an interesting international terrorism thriller, but not exactly the way I thought it would conclude. That aspect of Griffin's story telling kept me focused. Griffin does a superb job of developing the characters in this story. The main character enters in an unhighlighted manner, from an unlikely beginning, Dick Hill is an excellent choice for narrator, as through his vocal characterizations brings each of the characters in the story alive. I found the technical aspects correct, and somewhat intrigued with Griffin's use of them. I highly recommend this story. I think you'll find it the thriller it is, but also a gripping story that develops quickly, with sufficient detail, and development to keep you reading. I'm rating this a five star in all categories.

Historia
Jack Reacher was alone, the way he liked it, soaking up the hot, electric New York City night, watching a man cross the street to a parked Mercedes and drive it away. The car contained one million dollars in ransom money because Edward Lane, the man who paid it, would do anything to get his family back.

Gripping, suspenseful, and action packed!
Revisado: 06-30-21
Another excellent suspense story crafted from the mind of Lee Child , you’ll find difficult to put down once you start reading. The Hard Way is simple in concept, yet multi-dimensional in story content and character utilization. I found this an exceptional skill Lee Child masterfully incorporates into his work, successfully building one story layer upon another, guiding the reader’s mind through a series of story developments, each adding additional support snd focus. Dick Hill brings Jack reacher to life as he portrays him in this action packed story. Hill’s characterization vividly creates a persona for each of the several characters in This story. And in my opinion adds a measure of reality and perspective, which brings the story to life. Lee Child builds upon a simple scenario that blossoms into a rightful, and powerful conclusion. I rate this a five star in every category, recommend adding it to your reading list.
