Synopsis

When Richard Marcinko wrote his bestselling autobiography, Rogue Warrior, he and co-writer John Weisman were bound by government restrictions and could only tell a fraction of his incredible story. Now the tales he could not tell, the secrets he could not reveal explode in ROGUE WARRIOR II: RED CELL -- a riveting ne novel with Marcinko himself as the hero.

He is the enemy's worst nightmare and lives by only one rule. . . win, by any means.

Freelance security consultant Dick Marcinko is playing terrorist at Tokyo's Narita Airport. Easily penetrating the facility's defenses, he engages in a deadly firefight with North Korean operatives -- and discovers that a group of traitorous Americans are smuggling nuclear materials to North Korea and Japan. With no where else to turn, the former Secretary of Defense recalls Marcinko to the Navy against his will to command Red Cell, a dirty-dozen Seal team Marcinko created. From infiltrating Washington's Navy Yard offices and secret nuclear weapons depot in California, to raiding a North Korean Navy base and a target far out in the Pacific, the Rogue Warrior and his marauding SEALs fight incredible odds and increasingly dangerous enemies. A relentlessly paced audio program that hurtles to its electifying climax, ROGUE WARRIOR II: RED CELL is as good as a thriller gets.

Once again, loose morals, awful language, but intriguing story. Sometimes the author's bravado gets on your nerves, and sometimes you think it would take that kind of bravado and extreme self confidence to be able to accomplish the things he writes about. Some passages that I marked: "It is like this......more

Women's lib, equal opportunities and all that plays a part in trying to push good old Harry Callahan out of the SFPD in the mid 1970s, when badge #2211 is assigned a female partner and told that he is a dinosaur, an undesirable with questionable methods for solid results.

Goodreads review by Bradhernandez on September 24, 2023

Half crazed, Demo Dick turns his real world SEAL experience into the lukewarm spy-thriller-action genre (circa 1980). Very much in the spirit of the original 'rogue warrior', this yarn seems like a testosterone fueled ego booster with a few added plot points. The original SEAL with a book DEAL. "Doo......more

Goodreads review by Mark on October 13, 2022

Like his other books, good rousing adventures. This one, about smuggling nuclear parts into Japan. Patriots Seals fighting foreign enemies, some all-out traitors, and bureaucrats. Fun, sometimes coarse, narrative storytelling narrated by the author. Good, but rough around the edges, characters. He d......more
