The Conquest (Paperback)

Praise for the novels of Stephen Coonts
"America"
"The master of the techno-thriller spins a bone-chilling worst-case scenario involving international spies, military heroics, conniving politicians, devious agencies, a hijacked nuclear sub, lethal computer hackers, currency speculators, maniac moguls and greedy mercenaries that rivals Clancy for fiction-as-realism and Cussler for spirited action... [Coonts] never lets up with heart-racing jet/missile combat, suspenseful submarine maneuvers and doomsday scenarios that feel only too real, providing real food for thought in his dramatization of the missile-shield debate."
- "Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
"Fans of Coonts and his hero Grafton will love it. Great fun."
- "Library Journal"
"Coonts's action and the techno-talk are as gripping as ever."
- "Kirkus Reviews"
"Thrilling roller-coaster action. Give a hearty welcome back to Adm. Jake Grafton."
- "The Philadelphia Inquirer"
"Hong Kong"
"The author gives us superior suspense with a great cast of made-up characters...But the best thing about this book is Coonts's scenario for turning China into a democracy."
- Liz Smith, "The New York Post"
"A high-octane blend of techno-wizardry [and] ultraviolence...[Coonts] skillfully captures the postmodern flavor of Hong Kong, where a cell phone is as apt as an AK-47 to be a revolutionary weapon."
- "USA Today"
"Entertaining...intriguing."
- "Booklist"
"Will be enjoyed by Coonts's many fans...Coonts has perfected the art of the high-tech adventure story."
- "Library Journal"
"Coonts does a remarkable job of capturing the mood of clashing cultures in Hong Kong."
- "PublishersWeekly"
"Filled with action, intrigue, and humanity."
- "San Jose Mercury News"
"Move over Clancy, readers know they can count on Coonts."
- "Midwest Book Review"
"Cuba"
"Enough Tomahawk missiles, stealth bombers, and staccato action to satisfy [Coonts's] most demanding fans."
- "USA Today"
"[A] gripping and intelligent thriller."
- "Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
"Perhaps the best of Stephen Coonts's six novels about modern warfare."
- "Austin American-Statesman"
"Coonts delivers some of his best gung-ho suspense writing yet."
- "Kirkus Reviews"
"Dramatic, diverting action...Coonts delivers."
- "Booklist"
"Fortunes of War"
"[Coonts] is a natural storyteller [with] a rare gift...Fortunes of War is crammed with a action, suspense, and characters with more than the usual one dimension found in these books."
- "USA Today"
"A stirring examination of courage, compassion, and profound nobility of military professionals under fire. Coonts's best yet."
- "Kirkus Reviews" (starred review)
"Full of action and suspense...a strong addition to the genre."
- "Publishers Weekly"
"Flight of the Intruder"
"Extraordinary! Once you start reading, you won't want to stop!"
- Tom Clancy
"Coonts knows how to write and build suspense...this is the mark of a natural storyteller."
- "The New York Times Book Review"
"[Coonts's] gripping, first-person narration of aerial combat is the best I've ever read. Once begun, this book cannot be laid aside."
- "The Wall Street Journal"
"Kept me strapped in the cockpit of the author's imagination for a down-and-dirty novel."
- "St. Louis Post-Dispatch"
