Crusader One

Tier One Thrillers, Book 3

By: Brian Andrews, Jeffrey Wilson

Narrated by: Ray Porter

Nothing stops former Navy SEAL and Tier One operator John Dempsey from answering the call of duty - including a mission with the highest stakes he's ever faced. When one of the most brazen and lethal acts of terrorism rocks American and Israeli intelligence forces at the highest levels, Dempsey's ultracovert antiterror unit, Ember, mobilizes.

But this operation isn't just a retaliatory strike by Ember; it's a mission of vengeance for Dempsey - against the Iranian terrorist mastermind who slaughtered Dempsey's Tier One comrades. Racing from Tel Aviv to Tehran, the elite American warrior and his formidable Israeli counterpart must forsake their backup in a capture-or-kill gambit that could turn into a suicide run.

But with missiles flying across the Middle East, Dempsey's do-or-die quest must succeed. If it doesn't, it's a short countdown to World War III.

Just keeps getting better and better

First, let me say that Ray Porter is one talented reader. His voice switches from one character to the next in an easy flow. His character portrayals are so flawless that as the reader you feel as if you are there in the moment as an observe not only because of his talent but because of the writing of both authors.
This series is engaging, the on going storyline plausible and O think it just may be possible that these characters could actually exist in some form.
The sacrifices that our armed forces service men and women give for our country as well as their families isn't sugar coated. There is loss on both sides and the authors do well to represent that side of the story, too.

Series keeps getting better!

I've just started American Operator, book 4 in the series, so that alone should be an endorsement for Crusader One, the third book in the Tier One Thrillers. The action is nonstop, but the characters are all well-developed and believable. A possible new love interest for John Dempsey is introduced, the brave and determined Elizabeth, as Ember continues to hunt down the world's most fearsome terrorists. I especially like how the authors don't skimp on the development of their antagonists. They are just as well fleshed out as the heroes of the story, so that you're really on the edge of your seat as the opposing forces spiral down to an explosive conclusion.

Another page burner!

The action in the John Dempsey novel is always a level above similarity situated books! The characters are not just complete bada## & masters at the art of combat but they are complete characters with a few cracks in their armor. These cracks make the characters more relatable but thankfully don’t overshadow the true nature of books. Which is to be extreme, action adventure thrillers!! Can’t wait for more Ember & friends missions!!!!

I do NOT want this series to end!!!

I am very much enjoying this series. VERY detailed and keeps you HOOKED. LOVE IT!

Unputdownable

Moves along with the action and emotion these books are known for. Ray Porter adds his consummate ability as a narrator to make this another very entertaining experience.
