Liberation Day: A Nick Stone Mission

I don't know what book the other people who left reviews, were reading, but I loved this book. I like feeling like I am the one doing the waiting, blowing my nose and losing the feeling in my legs. I read all Andy McNab's books and I love all of them. I appreciate his spycraft thinking and I am right along with him, wiping my prints off my coffee cup. It is a real out of body experience and also a nice travelogue. Some of those other reviewers must have been reading while watching TV. This is a book to savor and read every word.

McNab is the best, highest level spec ops author....believable, likeable, funny, un-prejudiced, sticks to the story...unlike marcinko, I've never seen one of McNab's I didn't like..

Liberation Day, the fifth book in the Nick Stone series, ranks right up there with the rest if you enjoyed the other books in the series. After being set up for a disappointment by the overly-negative editorial review, by the end of the novel I was nearly overcome with emotion. Although often criticized for his excessive detail, McNab uses it, as well as his personal experiences, to present the reader with a vivid, accurate view of the events taking place, including long sessions of the plot being played out over walkie-talkie dialogue. If you have enjoyed McNab's style in the previous Nick Stone missions, then you will be gripped by this book as well.

I have just discovered Andy McNab and after reading his two non-fiction books started in on the Nick Stone series. I've read them one after another and have loved them. I almost didn't get Liberation Day after reading some of the reviews here, but I'm glad I did. If you want constant shoot-em-up action this is not the book for you, but if you like a book that tells it like it is, and makes you feel like you are right there, this is it. I found it highly suspenseful. Andy McNab can really write a book. I hope that there are many more Nick Stone missions on the way.

I just got through reading this book after 3 days.Its been a while since Andy wrote a book and it was very satisfying. Although I didnt find the story as involved as some of his other novels, such as Last Light and Crisis Four, it was well worth reading.Just like his other books, the attention to detail is extreme.For some reason, this book seems to over-ride you with detail and not as much action as past publications. I can count on one hand the amount of encounters that Nick Stone faces, which seems alot but the encounters seem shorter than past encounters, but, the book does a great job with descriptive and believable detailed information to keep you from putting the book down.I loved the book, and its a shame that there are no other new ones on the horizon that we know of. I have the entire Andy Mcnab collection and have almost read them all twice, 3 or 4 times each for Bravo Two Zero and Immediate Action.A definate buy for any Mcnab fan, you will want to add this to your collection.
