    An Exciting and Moving Storh
  

*by D***T on Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2022*

This action adventure quasi war story may be the best I've ever read. This should be made into a movie.  It would make a great movie.  The  author is a renaissance man, a warrior poet.  I'm glad I found this wonderful book.

    Inspiring tale of liberating slaves from savages in the 21st century
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2020*

We first met Dan Kilmer in 
  
Castigo Cay







  
  
    , where the retired U.S. Marine sniper (I tread cautiously on the terminology: some members of the Corps say there's no such thing as a “former Marine” and, perhaps, neither is there a “former sniper”) had to rescue his girlfriend from villains in the Caribbean. The novel is set in a world where the U.S. is deteriorating into chaos and the malevolent forces suppressed by civilisation have begun to assert their power on the high seas.As this novel begins, things have progressed, and not for the better. The United States has fractured into warring provinces as described in the author's “Enemies” trilogy. Japan and China are in wreckage after the global economic crash. Much of Europe is embroiled in civil wars between the indigenous population and inbred medieval barbarian invaders imported by well-meaning politicians or allowed to land upon their shores or surge across their borders by the millions. The reaction to this varies widely depending upon the culture and history of the countries invaded. Only those wise enough to have said “no” in time have been spared.But even they are not immune to predation. The plague of Islamic pirates on the high seas and slave raiders plundering the coasts of Europe was brought to an end only by the navies of Christendom putting down the corsairs' primitive fleets. But with Europe having collapsed economically, drawn down its defence capability to almost nothing, and daring not even to speak the word “Christendom” for fear of offending its savage invaders, the pirates are again in ascendence, this time flying the black flag of jihad instead of the Jolly Roger.When seventy young girls are kidnapped into sex slavery from a girls' school in Ireland by Islamic pirates and offered for auction to the highest bidder among their co-religionists, a group of those kind of hard men who say things like “This will not stand”, including a retired British SAS colonel and a former Provisional IRA combatant (are either ever “retired” or “former”?) join forces, not to deploy a military-grade fully-automatic hashtag, but to get the girls back by whatever means are required.Due to exigent circumstances, Dan Kilmer's 18 metre steel-hulled schooner, moored in a small port in western Ireland to peddle diesel fuel he's smuggled in from a cache in Greenland, becomes one of those means. Kilmer thinks the rescue plan to be folly, but agrees to transport the assault team to their rendezvous point in return for payment for him and his crew in gold.It's said that no battle plan survives contact with the enemy. In this case, the plan doesn't even get close to that point. Improvisation, leaders emerging in the midst of crisis, and people rising to the occasion dominate the story. There are heroes, but not superheroes—instead people who do what is required in the circumstances in which they find themselves. It is an inspiring story.This book has an average review rating of 4.9 on Amazon at this writing, but you've probably never heard of it in mainstream media. Why? Because it presents an accurate view of the centuries-old history of Islamic slave raiding and trading, and the reality that the only way this predation upon civilisation can be suppressed is by civilised people putting it down in with violence commensurate to its assault upon what we hold most precious.The author's command of weapons and tactics is encyclopedic, and the novel is consequently not just thrilling but authentic. And, dare I say, inspiring.

    Cultural, political and moral issues wrapped in a suspense novel.
  

*by L***H on Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2017*

Never seen a book with 200 reviews having no 1-2-3 stars, only 5-stars. It intrigues me that there is no opponents that will give 1-star reviews for political reasons. Having now read 17% so far it's 5-starEDIT (please read Matthew):When I reached 20+% mark, the book lost it's forward momentum and began coasting. The original interesting team was destroyed and all the cool equipment lost in a few pages. After skipping pages and then skipping over 1-2-5-10 chapters I arrived at the grand battle at the 80% mark. The grand battle was so riveting it should have been extended a lot. The no-action middle part of the book could be shortened considerably. Maybe there are some interesting moral/philosophical/political discussions going on in the middle part of the book, but I am not going to read all those uneventful pages to find those discussions.Wanted! More action scenes with the fort, and the port, and the enemy being destroyed in more detail with the awesome Bofors and more bang for the buck. If one heard or more correctly felt real heavy guns close up in live action you know what I mean. I wish the whole original team had been there and captured some heavy guns, wow. The rescue of the girls and the escape was really riveting, I was glued, couldn't leave it while making breakfast for my children.The author lacks an event/action co-editor. 1000s of sentences are spent describing unimportant events like; 'and then he nodded and the other guy nodded back, a hand-signal was given and a hand-signal was given back, the penlight was used and then used again, and the again again. The knife was designed by two Chinese policemen from Hong Kong. It was double edged, had a sharp point, made for stabbing and throwing not slashing, a heavy handle, no guard and the color of the handle was black, it was sheathed in a brown holster, the knife was fastened on my left side, but the belt was too wide so I had to use a string to fasten it, the string was from a parachute, that the Boss gave me...' times one hundred.  One chapter is about a rope....  skip - hop - skip. If the author just could leave out equipment catalog descriptions, and the extreme detailing of unimportant events. Focus on the action/characters/relations/historical/political story and please don't kill most of the interesting heroes at the beginning.As a suspense novel I give it only 2 stars due to the 60% of in-action, I add an extra 1 star for its moral and political perspective. And a ½ star for the author's extensive knowledge of the waters, characteristics and geography of Northern Africa and the Canaries. I am sure he knows as much about everything else describes. So now 3.5 stars rounded of to 4 stars with some extended goodwill. Because of the authors audacity and courage in writing a novel about the destruction of evil Muslims he gets an extra and final 5th star.The book can surely be made into a very good action movie. But Big Hollywood will replace all the bad Muslim characters, and make the movie politically correct. The kidnapped girls and the heroes will be Muslims, the bad guys will be redneck deplorables, all set in the Appalachians. Maybe it can be made in the Philippines with a director like Tony Scott (Man on Fire) d. 2012.Lots of promise and praise for Matthew Bracken. I hope he will write many action books for a broader audience. Mr. Bracken is on an important mission and has a very good and winning concept, writing about conservative cultural, moral and political issues wrapped in the suspense novel format. He has the potential of a new Dean Koontz.
