The Persian Gamble was my “soldier‘s story” for #Booked2019. This book is fast-paced and had me at the edge of my seat the whole time. Rosenberg‘s fiction is always like that for me. I hope this isn‘t the last we see of Marcus Ryker! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

I love Joel Rosenberg‘s books! They are fast paced thrillers that - to paraphrase several reviews - seem to come right off the front pages of the newspapers. I can‘t wait to see what happens next.

Crazeedi Oh I heard this one is very good 6y
DebReads4fun I love his books too! I also follow him on Facebook. 6y
