Holy cow, what an ending! Brad Thor has never really done cliffhanger endings before, so this one was a fantastic surprise. I can't wait for his next installment. This was most certainly Thor's best book yet and exceedingly scary in its potential reality--urban warfare in New York City between American Special Ops and radical Muslims (and not just Arabs, at that!). As a big Vince Flynn fan, I was reluctant to read Brad Thor as I didn't want a "copy-cat" author to preempt my enjoyment of Flynn. I'm finding, however, that my enjoyment of Thor's novels is surpassing my love of Flynn's. The stories are so relevant to today's terrorism and the "big picture" of cross-national threats that radical Islam, secretive governments, and mercenary billionaires make up. Another great thriller.

An excellent story, highlighting the nightmare that terrorism has become and the despicable means employed to stop it, but never becoming either cheerleader or preacher. The story threads are well developed, but it is the ending that made this book for me. ( )

Fast paced action. Good story. Interesting characters. I liked it a lot. ( )

Another enjoyable entry in the Scot Harvath series, I enjoyed Takedown very much. However, more than any other book that I've read recently, this one left me with the feeling that it could have been so much better. ( )
