Rating:  Summary: Is is bigger and better in TFB Review: Dick delivers in this non-stop action thriller. The readers becomes nervous and excited and the same time. It gets the adrenalin pumping. An awesome book by an awesome author. TFB is a chart toper and should be read by all SEAL's and action/adventure readers!
Rating:  Summary: Dickie does major damage to evil do'ers Review: Dick Marcinko and his band of merry men continue the legacy of beer drinking, nasty talkin', hard hitting action in the pursuit of the evil doer's of the good ole' U.S. of A. Just so I don't give away the plot and have Dickie visit me at my own abode some night with a C4 suprise package, I'll just say this adventure tracks right along with his usual style of commentary and Navy SEAL tactics until the bad guys end up properly chastised (and dead). If I didn't have it on good authority that Marcinko really is as nasty as he presents himself to be, I might wonder if these guys really are presented in a realistic manner. Since I DO know an ex-SEAL that IS acquainted with Dick, I guess I have to believe these guys really are nasty bad a-- m----r f-----s that I hope never to meet except maybe at a book signing fair. (Please Dick, if this review offends in ANY way, I profusely apologize and promise only to read the book and never write again.

Rating:  Summary: Another Richard Marcinko Thriller! Review: I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next one.
Rating:  Summary: Another Richard Marcinko Thriller! Review: In one of the most action-packed and suspenseful books I have ever read, Marcinko proves he's still the best SEAL ever by taking down a billionaire with evil in his agenda. The book draws you in with an incredibly exciting beginning were his team is responsible for saving hostages and taking down the terrorists. In the roguish style Marcinko's fans have come to love, he takes his buddies along for an impossible mission with a climactic ending. One of the best of the Rogue Warrior series.
Rating:  Summary: Task Force Blue is entertaining Review: 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.
Rating:  Summary: Wow... Review: 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.
Rating:  Summary: Sequels always seem to lack Review: Rogue Warrior was a great book. Red Cell was not bad. However, Task Force Blue is not only redundant, it is redundant. If you know what I mean, gentle readers. Do not expect the same true life, fast action as the original Rogue.
