This book was recommended by James Yeager from Tactical Response. The book was an easy read. It has a compelling story with relatable characters and topics. There were numerous passages that reminded me of my time in the Navy which was a fun aspect.

A lot of current topics were brought into the fold to keep the story timely. Very good! This book came highly recommended, and it lived up to the hype. It reads like an action movie; LCdr. Reese is into something in almost every chapter.

With plot twists throughout, will you stay in condition yellow or will you miss the forest for the trees? Great read, thank you, and looking for more. As a veteran with many TDYs overseas, great to have an author that writes with authenticity. Too many authors write about places they've never been and about things they've never done, and it's easy to spot.

Loved the plot. With the recent attacks on personal liberties by the left, this books definitely struck a chord with me. This book is awsome. I downloaded the audio book after James Yeager recommend it so I could start it while at work. No one wanted to listen to reason back home in the States, and now they have made James angry.

The last thing you want is having a Navy Seal come after you. View 1 comment. Mar 06, Jean rated it it was amazing Shelves: netgalley , atria. The Terminal List is a fast-paced, action-packed thriller. Sixty-eight servicemen died on this mission. Reece knew he would get the blame for the catastrophic failure and he was resigned to take the blame he knew was his. After weeks of questioning he was finally cleared to go home to his wife and 3 year old daughter.

On the day The Terminal List is a fast-paced, action-packed thriller. On the day of his homecoming, Reece learns his family was murdered in a home invasion. Could it be a coincidence? His whole family and whole SEAL team dead?

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. With nothing else to lose, he goes on a revenge killing spree. This would make an awesome movie. Full of action, intrigue, bad guys, and a protagonist you are rooting for throughout the story. Definitely a page-turner. I highly recommend this book. Jul 21, Greg rated it it was ok.

The Terminal List is dumb. No, not the tactics portrayed or the near-gun porn when the hand loaded jacketed rounds are more lovingly described than any character, it's Jack Carr paper-thin absurdist plot that low-balls everything else.

Think Robert Ludlum but with a severe hangover, mild head injury and with a desire to pepper in right-wing pet issues. I enjoyed the senseless mayhem, but the lack of nuance was disappointingly low. The "bad guys" are that of an 80s action movie, bad for the sake o The Terminal List is dumb.

The "bad guys" are that of an 80s action movie, bad for the sake of bad without nuance. Motivation is money. That's the beginning and end. I was willing to look past the clear Hillary Clinton stand-in with her also Bill Clinton stand-in philandering husband, the ranting about gun-laws but there's bizarrely silly claim in the novel blasting the liberals on privacy rights?

That's not a different viewpoint, that's just the opposite of true. It's like the Patriot Act never happened in Carr's world, or the constant deregulation of consumer rights didn't happen by the hand of Republicans,. That's a whole other thing, not even the biggest problem with the book. It is patently stupid, though. I was somewhat entertained, but also disappointed when the only twist was a double-cross, any promise of a mystery by the description was never delivered.

The bad guys are revealed in the first few chapters, and their motivations are comically thin. It adheres to the strictly to the template of tropes ex-military: politicians bad, enlistees good, generals suspect. I've read worse and dumber novels, but this had the complexity of a YA novel, and nary a thought on the morality of the main characters actions, as he becomes increasingly violent. For a hard-boiled-man-on-fire revenge book, there's to be said on the psychological state of our hero becoming as gruesomely violent as those he was trained to fight.

Instead, he dispatches enemies like a sociopath aspy-teen playing Call of Duty. There's some deep irony as the Navy Seal, trained to fight global jihad who ends up a one-man Jihadist himself against the US government no less , literally make improvised explosives and torturing.

This is even explicitly pointed but Carr moves right past it. One might expect the warping of the mind to be a parable exploring the narrow gulf between a patriot and terrorist but there's no such dichotomy here. It bears repeating, the politics are bonkers. It mostly reads like revenge fantasy about the Clintons, with all their supposed Machiavellian actions, by a guy who reposts political memes on Facebook about patriotism. Lastly, the audiobook was read by the almighty Ray Porter, who also read another revenge-ripped-from-headlines-hyper-violent-gun-loving series, Power of the Dog.

It's like The Terminal List but written for big kids. I suggest that. Dec 28, Laura Rash rated it really liked it. A new twist on a military thriller with an awesome new character. I think this series will go far for fans of Vince Flynn or Evan Smoak. One badass book! Thanks to Atria for this early copy for review. Apr 10, Steven Jr. It's often considered a faux pas to leave anything less than an absolutely glowing review if you are an author.

In the indie author world, it's an extreme faux pas in the sense that a negative review hurts us harder than those who are traditionally published. I kind of straddle that rule right down the middle. If the book was absolute garbage, then I'll say nothing. If it had potential but required work, then I'll leave a review. In this case, Mr. Carr will likely never read my review, and it cert It's often considered a faux pas to leave anything less than an absolutely glowing review if you are an author.

Carr will likely never read my review, and it certainly won't put a dent in his popularity and sales. In the off-chance he does read it, though, I hope that this review will serve as constructive criticism. Shortly upon returning, Reece is accused of dereliction of duty by his chain of command, his best friend is suicided, and his family is murdered by gang members.

Reece begins to call in every favor he can and prepares for war, uncovering a massive conspiracy along the way. I have friends that absolutely love this book. That initially got me interested in it. Then I read the 1- and 2-star reviews and was concerned. I met Jack Carr in person and he was a nice-enough guy.

I think it's that last point that compels me to write the review, because I want him to succeed and I see he's got the potential to do so. I find myself somewhere between the glowing reviews and the total dress downs.

What does Terminal List do right? The action is top notch, and it's clear that Carr's experience as a special warfare operator translates well onto the page.

When bullets start flying, the reader is immersed in the firefight. There are glimmers of dialogue and characterization that hint at larger potential. What does it do wrong? Moments that could have been powerful are reduced to summation and lose their impact. This is especially obvious in the scene where Reece loses his team.

Zero buildup, which makes it hard for anyone who hasn't experienced that loss first-hand to connect. For every glimmer of solid characterization, there are also several missteps.

Aside from telling rather than showing, there were moments that really struck me as off. Reece does an awful lot of smiling for somebody whose entire world had been destroyed. In that circumstance, I think of the Tom Jane version of The Punisher, a man driven solely by revenge. He's not smiling. He's not cracking jokes. He's still reeling from the death of his family. Reece acts a lot like the death of his family is well behind him, and it's noticeably jarring.

There are others examples of mischaracterization, but this is the most grievous. The final item that docks points is the heavy-handedness with which Terminal List handles politics. It is very much "conservative good, liberal bad," with multiple tone-deaf takes throughout. I understand the thriller genre is predominantly conservative. This docked point isn't about a political disagreement but rather a disagreement on writing technique.

There are two thriller books that came out in the early s which will remain nameless. Both had George Soros type characters as antagonists.

One handled it with deftness, making the character nuanced while decidedly still an antagonist. The other resorted to caricatures, making conservatives out to be everything that was right with the world and liberals to be everything that was bad with the world.

Nobody sees themselves as the bad guy of the story. Nobody is going to cackle and rub their hands evilly and plot destruction like a vaudeville villain. The liberal antagonists of this novel very much come off like that, and while it may score points with the Trumpist base that's looking for "gotcha!

Terminal List unfortunately falls victim to this. There were multiple occasions where I was starting to lose myself in the story, only to be snapped back to reality by the painfully obvious fictional take on Hillary Clinton spouting lines that come off as what conservatives think liberals sound like.

I have to wonder if nobody offered these suggestions to Mr. I understand that, but there is more than one way to be supportive. As I said at the onset, Mr. Carr absolutely has potential and I think he can make a fine thriller author.

He certainly bats above average in the category of "SOF veteran turned author. Aug 15, Cheryl added it. An Isamaphobic internal rant. This was a great read. The politics are WAY different than mine - no problem. That's why I kept reading. And then I hit this subtle statement of the 'truth' about a whole people. Let's change a word or two here. Instead of Islam, let's try this Right down the line to deep believer Christians who have been 'indoctrinated by an archaic ideology of hate', who blow up abortion clinics and murder worshipers in mosques fanatics.

There's a gap. Identify the purposeful omission here. Every religion has members who are mainstream practitioners of Love. Love, not hate. That's the core premise of the Abrahamic faiths. Fanatics are not the majority. When your list includes, practitioners in name only, practitioners who suck at their practice, and crazies who subscribe to a warped vision of worshipping G-d, then there is a problem. There's always a group of normals who are sorta doing things as a Founder intended.

I was loving this book - primarily because of what I learn about perspectives different than mine. 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. 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.
