Red Storm Box Set consist of Battlefield Ukraine, Korea, and Taiwan.
When superpowers collide… …a single shot can ignite a global disaster. Will the Ukrainian conflict start WWIII? Barely settled into the White House, the new American President is faced with a choice. With the smartest military advisers by his side, and the Joint Chiefs prepared for war, he must give the order. Who will he listen to? What’s the correct move? In Moscow, the memory of the long winter never fades. The Ukraine is key to the Kremlin’s plans and the Americans are meddling where they don’t belong. This chess match will change the world. Never has technology been so advanced. But that alone won’t win the day. If you enjoy force-on-force battles filled with hair raising action, you’ll be hooked from the start. It will keep you turning the pages because everyone loves an edge of your seat thriller.
The world’s eyes watch… …but it’s what they don’t see that matters. With eyes on Europe, will North Korea exploit this chance? While the soldiers of the 2nd Infantry Division patrol the DMZ, China convinces North Korea to mobilize. This is the scenario the Chinese have been planning for and they’re ready. A surprise attack in Europe has NATO reeling. The new American President has to learn quickly if he wants to pull the country out of the disaster in Europe, but will he be ready for what comes from the South China Sea? The news headlines can’t be trusted. There’s a war being fought behind the scenes, but who is pulling the strings? Who will step up and support the President in the country’s greatest time of need? You’ll love this thrilling story because James Rosone and Miranda Watson know how to keep you turning the pages until well past your bedtime.
Is it too late to stop the dominoes from falling? Not since the US pulled out of Vietnam has the communist threat been so real. Taiwan is at risk. If America loses its ally in the Pacific Rim, the Chinese will be one step closer to dominating all of Asia. Japan, Thailand, the Philippines—no one will be safe from their hostile takeover. The President must act. Force is needed, but the deployment won’t be popular. Politics are always being played. Can POTUS muster the courage to do what’s right? Will the United States of America remain the beacon of democracy the world needs? Is it too late? If you enjoy force-on-force battles filled with hair raising action, you’ll be hooked from the start.

All three books were fast paced, intriguing and with well drawn characters that reflected people I've met over a 35 year military career. My biggest hang up was the poor job of editing resulting in a lot of redundant wording and repeating of information.

The scenario, particularly in Korea and Taiwan, was very realistic. The use of swarm attacks and human waves has been a constant threat when dealing with the Chinese. A USSR officer once told me that the Russians most feared the Chinese because it was impossible to make enough ammunition to kill all of the soldiers they could put in the field.

One particular irritant was the misrepresentation of the effectiveness of space based sensors to track in real time what is going on. The low orbiting sensors described in the book (RORSAT and others) are only able to view the battlefield for approximately six minutes as they go from horizon to horizon. They won't see that same area for another 12 hours. Does that mean the other technical data so prevalent in the three books of the series that I have read so far are equally questionable?

Overall, I would recommend the book. I would also recommend the authors spend a little time (or money) in better editing the text.

Worthy of the name

Writing about war in the modern era is very difficult. Few have done since of well. Tom Clancy, Larry Bond, Stephen Coonts , Barrett Tillman and Harold Coyle are the standard for the genre. James Boone is now ready to take his place among them. The level of detail and the believability of the story kept me hanging by the seat of my pants. Staying neutral as a narrator is no easy feat, but neither side of this conflict is written one dimensional. It assumes both sides have their motives and both sides have intelligent and capable people. The best endorsement I can give is that I'm buying the remaining three books all at once.

Excellent read. Hard to put down. Loved all the detail in these fictional stories built around real current political issues. Especially great read for us retired military types who have had the opportunity to actual have been in many places referred in the text. Over the years I have been to Kiev and other parts of the Ukraine, also to most of the former Warsaw Pact countries, and all of the countries of Europe,so reading the first volume was exciting and a trip down memory lane. I have also spent five years in the Far East so interwoven story centering on the world issues dealing with China, Vietnam, , and Korea were a real bonus in this set.
Will immediately finish up the following three volumes.
Highly recommend this well written series to all.

I can’t comment enough on how great James and Miranda’s work is. This is my second read through of the series and although I thought it impossible I’ve enjoyed this read through even more than the first.

Reading this book at the time of ongoing Russia-Ukrain war, feels kind of scary. These are only first three books in the series - very fast paced story.
A lot of discussion in the book feels like the current world scenarios - politically and militarily.

I found the series fascinating in light of what is happening currently in Ukraine and the South China Sea. Overall a good read and I had to read the rest of the series to complete the entire story.

Good, but........

Alternate military history is my bag. I liked these books alot. The scenarios are good and the research into the weapon systems appears to be spot on. The only problem I have is that at times it doesn't seem to flow and it reads as if someone quite young has written it, as long as you don't let It bother you too much, it's fine
It certainly improves throughout the series. Well worth a go, recommended
