Detachment Delta: Punitive Strike

By Charles W. Sasser

Book Overview

The enemy has struck with no warning, destroying a U.S. fighting ship and taking Americans hostage. There are lives to be saved and a terrorist threat that must be diffused -- permanently -- so the men of Delta Force are on the move. America's first line of defense in the battle against terrorism, they are trained, armed, and ready to take the fight into the monster's stronghold. And for three heroic brothers born into a legendary warrior dynasty, the elimination of the #1 foe of the civilized world is more than a global imperative -- this war is personal.

Operation Delta

Incredible read! Would easily compare to Clancy. Can't wait for the next in the series.

Entertaining

I found this book to be captivating and hard to put down. It certainly slams the appropriate politicans that for 8 years jammed up the US military and put us in jeopardy for 0911/01.The family connections of the key players was a little hard to swallow, but it is hard to find good books about the Delta Force, and I enjoyed this one.

A Page Turner!

I couldn't put this one down until I read to the end. Sasser must have had his crystal ball in front of him (He wrote this BEFORE the 9/11 attacks.) when he wrote this story of war against terrorists and Osama bin Laden's Al-Qeada organization. Besides the page-turning suspense and conflict, Sasser, shows a great deal of the frustration that our military leaders have with politicians. This was a good read. I can't wait for the next book in this new series.
