The way in which the war was initiated by the Russians is very plausible indeed. Russia rescuing its "oppressed" citizens in Latvia is very believable. Of all the Baltic states, Latvia has the largest population of Russians, and it's obvious that Russians would pick that state to invade first, taking Estonia and Lithuania along with it. The scenario is so real, that after reading the book, it's difficult to imagine that it hasn't already happened. I spent six years in US Air Force Intelligence during the Cold War, and some parts of this book were almost like reading a daily intelligence briefing.Characters in the book are believable, and the reader can imagine the actual person the character is based on in real life. Putin, Clinton, Merkel, and Cameron (written pre-Theresa May) are all there. I have read other reviews that complain about the lack of relationships developing between the characters. Personally, I feel that this would have only taken away from the message that is the book. Having said that, the characters are well developed and each character has its "ghosts."The book is a very good and fast read, hard to put down. The only reason I did not give the book five stars is the ending. The ending happens too perfectly and too fast - and a little far-fetched, leaving the reader a little puzzled. I won't describe it here to spoil the book for you, but what I will say is that I cannot imagine the Russians to be so vulnerable.I recommend this book, especially to leaders if NATO countries. Consider it a warning. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very good action/thriller “a la Tom Clancy” *by N***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2019* It is a very good action/thriller “a la Tom Clancy”. However several chapters have too much political discussion and repetition (like about the defence cuts in the UK) and should have been made shorter to avoid breaking the action. But the book is still a very good read.I will recommend jumping the first 20 pages and start directly to read the fiction on page 21. The foreword, the preface and the prologue are quite interesting but they could be dissuasive for some readers. But certainly they will be of much interest for most the readers after the reading of the fiction.A last note: The author is making a large use of abbreviations (most of them related to the NATO organization) and it will have been very nice to have a list of them (take notes!). ### ⭐⭐ Poorly written, but with an interesting storyline *by D***H on Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2021* This is not a good book. The author is a retired general and it shows. Choppy sentences. Disjointed pacing and a weird way of jumping between overly explaining certain concepts while also assuming a lot of deep knowledge of the topics discussed. The books only redeeming quality is that the premise is interesting. Does the current weakness of NATO as a military threat invite an overly aggressive Russia to take action? Good question, and I am sure there are other storytellers able to tackle that question. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/34678903-war-with-russia-an-urgent-warning-from-senior-military-command](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/34678903-war-with-russia-an-urgent-warning-from-senior-military-command) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
