the end of WWIII

the end of WWIII is finally here with an assult on china's capital probably one of the best of the series

Very good story

this book told an exciting story of men in combat. Even though some things seemed impossible it is well worth someones time.

Good read, fast pace, lacking in realism

I have to say I had a hard time putting this book down. There's a lot of action and the pace is furious. However, the pace is also a weakness of the book. It is written in the style of a TV movie: everything happens quickly, seemlessly, and often unrealistically. The author makes it seem as though you can cross China in a few hours in a tank (fat chance). In one scene, a battlefield commander radios in a request for a cruise missile attack, and, within half an hour, the missiles arrive, on target, courtesy of a sub cruising in the Pacific. Nice, but highly unlikely.On the whole I enjoyed the book. But, given the lack of realism and paper-thin characters, I'm not sure I would read another in this series.
