Annoying at best
Rosenberg's first two books, while full of neo-con agenda items, did not go overboard. I borrowed both as audio tapes from my library and they were semi-palatable.This one is truly sad. It starts off with a semi-plausible plot and goes downhill in a hurry. The last few chapters are very poorly done, in particular. The heroes have an easy time, always. The bad guys, well, let's just say they're not all that smart. Loose ends do not get picked up properly, and the end is as good as "Attack of the Killer Tomatos".A special demerit or three for the guy who did the reading. With an hour and a half a day on the road and a fantastic public library, I listen to a book a week, easily. This guy even manages to sound like a neo-con talk show host, except when he does his Russian accent imitation where he's outright laughable.
