Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

The Rogue Warrior is back with a vengeance in this third adventure starring and narrated by foul-mouthed, fast-talking ex-SEAL Richard Marcinko, subject of the autobiographical Rogue Warrior and hero of the novel Rogue Warrior II: Red Cell. Marcinko's latest escapade opens with his new Green Team on a secret assignment from the Chief of Naval Operations to snatch a terrorist away from his Cairo hideaway. When a terrorist bomb kills Marcinko's mentor and friend, CNO Arleigh Secrest, Marcinko and team vow revenge. Their battle against traitors and terrorists is waged with high-energy heroics from Nice to Karachi, with enough testosterone to float a battleship. Marcinko gives new definition to the word tough; the character that he and coauthor Weisman have created to tell the story is loud, self-assured, self-aware and unabashedly chauvinistic? the embodiment of an American myth: the outlaw who gets the job done with an end-justifies-the-means morality. The highly energetic storytelling includes numerous informational, historical and anecdotal asides, none of which is dull. A novel for those who like in-your-face four-letter action. Author tour; Simon & Schuster Audio.

From Library Journal

Marcinko's Rogue Warrior (LJ 2/1/92), a surprise best seller, was-ostensibly-a nonfiction account of his exploits as a Navy SEAL. Subsequently, in Rogue Warrior II: Red Cell and in this latest volume, he recasts himself as fictional hero of top-secret military adventures.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the original, Dec 16 2003
By Eric Rucker (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Green Team: Rogue Warrior III (Mass Market Paperback)
This was the third...and last Rogue Warrior book for me. After being blown away by the first one, I eagerly awaited Red Cell. After being somewhat disappointed by Red Cell, I still awaited the third book, "Green Team." I did find Green Team readable and Im a big fan of the SEALs. But it was nothing that great either. It certainly did not pack the drama of the first book. Its basically more of the original book...more bashing the regular Navy, more bashing non JSOC SEALs who couldnt make the cut of SEAL Team Six or Red Cell back in the eighties, more bashing of civilian politicians who Marcinko perceives as "weenies" or even as traitors. I dont disagree with Marcinko's assessments of these individuals, but after a while his moaning and complaining gets old. Thats why I decided to call it quits after Green Team.

If I want to listen to some bitter old man complain about the sorry state of the world, I will go listen to my dad or my grandpa complain. Marcinko comes across like a whiner in Green Team. I havent read a Marcinko book since.

Marcinko's original book is a mini-education and a great book. The rest of his books are redundant, moaning and groaning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marcinko knew years ago, what we are just finding out...., Jun 10 2002
By Shelley (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Green Team: Rogue Warrior III (Mass Market Paperback)
Dick Marcinko is a rare individual, who is not only strong in his combat delivery, but smart and has quite the work ethic. are and thank God he is a standup warrior.

This particular book is a little too close to similar to reality today (to what he has known for a very long time) for comfort. I pray that God continues to use him and others like him in the protection of our Armed Forces and Americans in general. If I had a son, I would want him to serve and learn from the best, Dick Marcinko. (Although, I believe that the only way a person of Mr. Marcinko's magnitude, must have a strange personal life.)

This is great fun, and I find the story quite interesting. Not just in battle, but the complex background and history is interesting as well. Proving things are not always what they seem.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stop Looking, Nov 26 2001
This review is from: Green Team: Rogue Warrior III (Mass Market Paperback)
The author of this book is the mentor of many spec war personell in the world today. And if you are interested in the subject spec war/special forces, this is the right place to look.

His books get a little repetetive after a while, but I don`t mind. His currucilum is small, but right on the spot.

Green Team is one of the best fictional books he has written, and a good place to start after reading "Rogue Warrior."

Green Team is edutainment in its highest form. Forget about those SAS books by Nab and Ryan, they just dont have an broader perspective on tactical warfare.

This book (and the others) will maybe not appeal to readers with no interest in law enforcement and military.
