This kind of book usually ain't my cup of meat, but I'm trying to read outside my confort zone now and then. In a nutshell:

Everything that can go wrong does go horribly wrong in this incredibly fast-paced thriller about a military transport plane with a terrorist’s bomb aboard. This is the sequel to The Mullah’s Storm, and continues Major Michael Parson and Sergeant Major Sophia Gold’s heroic attempts to bring peace and stability to the Afghan region.

And it was pretty good! ( )

A great thriller. Well written, very suspenseful. Major Parson and Sergeant Gold. SILENT ENEMY pretty much takes place entirely in the air, in a C-5 transport trying to exit Kabul, Afghanistan on its way to Germany. Who'd have thought that a novel could be written from that long, boring flight? I am a USAF veteran an enjoyed his presentation of the USAF characters making them both believable yet not superheros.

Mr. Young delivered an exciting inside view of the hazards one faces while serving their country. I am a USAF veteran an enjoyed his presentation of the USAF characters making them both believable yet not superheros. The book was a surprising thriller. ( )

Fast paced action, great for a quick read. While I did not read the first book in the series this wasn't an issue as the story stands well on it's own.
