Raider Black Ops

The Russia Strike

By: Eric Meyer

Narrated by: Neal Arango

Russia - An almost lawless country ruled by the FSB, dread successor to the KGB, criminal gangs and Pamyat, fanatical Russian nationalists. Organizations who will commit any crime, murder any civilian, even commit genocide, to further their cause. When a package of sensitive information is stolen in a well-organized robbery in Manhattan, it is soon tracked to the despotic hellhole that no sane person would want to navigate. Yet if the contents are made public, an entire nation will be ruined. Only one group of men can be trusted to carry out the task and retrieve that package; John Raider and his former SEAL buddies.

Unwilling to take on the job, Raider finds he has no choice when his family becomes threatened. He must enter the vast sub-continent, where their lives will be on the line the moment they step across the border. Raider's men find themselves embroiled in the politics and struggles of a country at war with itself. The police are criminals, and the criminals compete to carry out even greater atrocities, where human life is often measured against the value of a pack of cigarettes.

Better than I thought

The story, writing, and reading was a whole lot better than I thought and wished I had gave this a listen a lot sooner than I did

Great Follow up to Crisis Ukraine

Solid sequel, that included many callbacks to the first book. A lot of familiar characters return, and Neal does a great job depicting each one. I enjoyed this book and look forward to more by this narrator and author.

Excellent Story

I was entertained by this story. My imagination was so captivated that I stayed up all night to listen to the audiobook. I was engaged from the opening paragraphs until the very end of the story. I enjoyed the almost non-stop action. I liked Raider and his team. I bit my nails when they were in stressful situations. I cheered with their successes, and felt sad when things didn't go to plan. I thought Neal Arango's narration was great, and his performance kept my attention. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
