There are the guys whove been there, and the guys who havent. Joshua Hoods been there, and it shows on every page. Helluva fine writer. (Ted Bell, author of Patriot)<br /><br />This new gripping military thriller lines up all other combat tomes on the genre, sweeps them off the bookshelf into a freshly dug grave, then double taps them face down before air support is called in to bombard competitors into oblivion.

(Marc Cameron, author of Brute Force)<br /><br />An edge-of-your seat military thriller par excellence.More than just a terrific high-octane shoot-em-up, Hood also gives an inside look at the heroic but tightly wound personalities of those tasked with waging war on America's most dangerous enemies. Full of twists, tension, and double-crosses, coupled with a from the headlines premise that feels as real as the gritty and blood-soaked action. (Mark Greaney, author of Tom Clancy Commander in Chief)<br /><br />"Joshua Hood has a gift for keeping readers guessing and a soldier's eye for gripping action. <i>Warning Order</i> is a terrific follow up to his recent debut, <i>Clear By Fire</i>. (Kyle Mills, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of The Survivor)<br /><br />"Gripping, authentic, heart-wrenching. If you want to know what the front lines in America's war on terror are like, read this book. <i>Warning Order</i> nails it and Joshua Hood has arrived in violent, splendid fashion.
