The Final Jihad

The idea that Martin Keating could write this eye-opening book BEFORE the bombing in Oklahoma City and the string of terror that followed is astounding. His detailed unveiling of the methods and motives behind an emerging wave of domestic terror is MUST reading for anyone who loves this great country we share. This is fiction in name and character references only--how much of what has been revealed here is really known (already) by our domestic intelligence watchdogs? If you read this book without being involved and alarmed by the potential that lies ahead, you had better read it again...

This is one of the best books I have ever read. Mr. Keating's novel doesn't seem so much like fiction any more. I read this book in 1996 met the author and had my book inscribed. I have been waiting for a sequelever since. Martin Keating knows what he is talking about, it's as if his story has come true. Every Oklahoman should read this book. Make that every American should read this book.

When reading this book you have to keep in mind that he wrote this book prior to Sept 11th!As an Air Force veteran, I can tell you that the tactics used by both the government and the terrorists in this book are frighteningly real. With out giving too much of the book away, Mr. Keating had the premonition of terrorists using airplanes as missles to strike at the nation! In addition, some of the other tactics used by the terrorists in this book are very real. I wasn't even aware the Mr.Keating was the brother of the Oklahoma govenor until I read the reviews for this book. There is very little reference to the OKC bombing in this book. I don't recall a character named "Tom Mcvey". Overall, a well written book on par with Tom Clancy.

At first I thought the author was riding on his brother's shirt tails, but after reading the book, my opinion changed. The book stands on its own merit. I'm an avid mystery/suspense reader and was very impressed with this book. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys good fiction.

Scarry as hell and makes you wonder what next especially with the bombing of the Federal building in Oklahoma City. It was so real you could feel things were right there in front of you. Mr. Keating has a great insight into government and it's workings. I wish he would hurry with his next book
