ISIS kidnaps the Secretary of State on a peace mission in Syria and holds him for a fifty billion dollar ransom, Secretary of Defense, Jack "Burner" Stewart calls in the Black Eagle Force. A CIA Analyst breaks a coded message from ISIS to the North Koreans for the purchase of two nuclear weapons. Someone tries to keep her from getting the information to the SecDef and attempts to kill both of them. The President issues an Executive Order… Disband the BEF. A fleet of mysterious black helicopters from a secret base in Mexico crosses the Rio Grand to destroy Eagle Nest Ranch. Who is it? Who created ISIS and their reign of terror? Can the Black Eagle Force stop them? Will the BEF survive? This didn't happen. You didn't see us. We don't exist. We are the Black Eagle Force!
Another great chapter in the annals of the BEF. Well written with a great and exciting plot. Good character development. Action sequences exciting. Technology developments really spectacular. Recommended if you like action and adventure fantasies.
A well coordinated, well armed, well trained force for good. That describes the Black Eagle Force to a T. When the US Secretary of State is kidnapped by ISIS, the BEF is contracted to try to locate and effect a rescue. What happens next is four hundred pages of action, punctuated with some brisk, sometimes salty, dialog between the members of the BEF team. From the Middle East to North Korea, the team deals with ISIS, nuclear weapons, and hostages as well as a less than supportive political administration at home. Absolutely great read, in line with all of the previous books in this series.
This is a great military action techno-thriller. The military experience of the two authors (Farmer - marine, Steinke - USAF) is evident in their vivid word pictures of air battles and ground combat. The story is fast paced. The action is fantastic. Don't start this book unless you have time, because it is HARD to put down. It is also noteworthy that these two military veteran authors chose to dedicate this book to those four Americans who lost their lives in the radical Islamic attack on the US Embassy in Benghazi, Libya. For readers that really like BLACK EAGLE FORCE, I encourage checking out their historical western fiction which are fantastic.
This story is top notch kick ass story! Wish we had BEF in real cause they could take care of the assholes in the Middle East -Russia -China & the stupid jerk running North Korea . No stop action -once you start reading it's hard to put down. Can't wait for the next ongoing story of Black Eagle Force!
