Audiobook: The Terminal List by Jack Carr

Synopsis

On his last combat deployment, Lieutenant Commander James Reece’s entire team was killed in a catastrophic ambush that also claimed the lives of the aircrew sent in to rescue them. But when those dearest to him are murdered on the day of his homecoming, Reece discovers that this was not an act of war by a foreign enemy but a conspiracy that runs to the highest levels of government.

Now, with no family and free from the military’s command structure, Reece applies the lessons that he’s learned in over a decade of constant warfare toward avenging the deaths of his family and teammates. With breathless pacing and relentless suspense, Reece ruthlessly targets his enemies in the upper echelons of power without regard for the laws of combat or the rule of law.

Review

I am by no means even remotely knowledgeable if it comes to the Navy SEALs. I watched the TV Series and enjoyed it a lot. I also needed something to entertain myself on my runs and here we are 😊
You clearly notice that the author was a Navy SEALs. Describing missions, tactics, weapons etc. is done with a lot of details but never to the point where it felt overwhelming. I learned a lot of things and have a lot of respect for the job. The story is complex and unfolds bit by bit. If a new character is introducing, we’re getting a background story immediately or very soon after.

Sure, the main plot sounded a bit over the top in some areas and Reece is presented as nearly perfect in executing his revenge. At the end of the day, I rooted for him to take revenge (it is a fictional story) and enjoyed the wild ride. Looking forward to continuing with the series.
