Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Literature imitates steak tartare in these latest adventures (after Rogue Warrior: Green Team) of ex-Navy SEAL Dick Marcinko and his handpicked band of operatives. Here, the author has his fictional alter-ego and his underlings combat domestic terrorism?on an airline and at an oil rig, among other colorful locations. Marcinko the character also has a half-million-dollar bounty put on his head by an evil billionaire. Although the first-person narrative bristles with seemingly authentic military detail, readers are assured that "operational details have been altered so as not to betray current SpecWar techniques." Marcinko is less demure about his politics, taking to task politicians, the international arms trade and sloppy security precautions as he pumps for a highly trained and patriotic standing military. The author is running into some problems keeping the series fresh. The thin plot isn't sufficiently obscured by spilled blood and hand-to-hand fighting tips, and Marcinko's insider's voice, while still cocky, is beginning to explain details covered in earlier volumes. But those who enjoy tough tales about men whose purpose is "to annihilate, destroy, obliterate, kill, maim and terminate" will enjoy chewing on this.

From Library Journal

Marcinko adds more color to the best-selling success of Rogue Warrior: Green Team (Pocket Bks., 1995) and Rogue Warrior: Red Cell (Pocket Bks., 1994) in this novel about terrorists and the men who kill them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow..., Jun 27 2002
By "nasty_nick_grundle" (Spokane, WA US of F'in A) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Task Force Blue (Mass Market Paperback)
Let me say first off I am a 21 YO computer sci major, and this was one of the best books I have ever read. Richard Marcinko is such an admirable leader and he shares all his tactics with the reader. If only he ran for president. I immediately was sucked into the book, they way the book was written I really felt like I was along for the ride, and oh what a ride it was. Marcinko's books are so enthralling that it even makes me think about joining the milliatry, just so I could follow in his footsteps, and if I wasn't almost done with school, I just might've done it. Forget what you see in movies, or what you think you know about the millitary/SEALs, Marcinko is the real thing, and he'll set you straight.

4.0 out of 5 stars Task Force Blue is entertaining, Mar 13 2002
This review is from: Task Force Blue (Mass Market Paperback)
In the way that karate movies are entertaining. Lots of cool action parts and a storyline that doesn't quite make it to good.

The writing style is very similar to all of his sequels to the original Rogue Warrior book. Not quite redundant in my opinion, but almost.

A decent enough story, really good slam-bang double-tap action, I'd only recommend this book only to fans of action-adventure books and fans of Richard Marcinko.

4.0 out of 5 stars Marcinko Strikes Again!, Jul 8 2001
By Melvin Hunt (Cleveland,, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Task Force Blue (Mass Market Paperback)
This is another thriller in the Rogue Warrior series. Through his experiences as a U.S. Navy Seal Marcinko has been enabled to write some very entertaining books. His vast knowledge of types of weapons and special operations manuevers make his books quite believable. In this book Marcinke and his troops are matched up against an evil ruthless billionaire. Despite the man's over- whelming wealth Marcinko is still able to prevail. As usual there is nonstop action. The ending of this book is also very unique. Be sure to read this book. You will be greatly entertained.Dick Marcinko has written another good book.
