Synopsis

AS A U.S. NAVY SEAL, RICHARD MARCINKO KNEW NO LIMITS -- AS THE ROGUE WARRIOR, HE OBEYS NO RULES.
The Rogue Warrior's taking a flying leap -- a high-altitude jump over the South China Sea. His mission: scuttle a Chinese freighter's cargo of nuclear hardware and its crack crew of naval commandos. It's a leave-no-tracks, take-no-prisoners operation, and business as usual for Marcinko. But on board he makes a chilling discovery: a cache of state-of-the-art command and control equipment, all made in the U.S.A. -- and primed for America's destruction!
Marcinko takes his findings back to Washington, where he runs into a wall of doublespeak and double deals. Tapping into his own intelligence sources, he discovers the ugly truth -- some of the U.S. military's most sophisticated technology has been given to our most dangerous potential adversary: the Chinese. Their long-range objective: turning the United States into a third-world country -- and a fifth-rate power. Worse, the Rogue Warrior discovers that Washington has signed off on the deal.
The Chinese sense victory. They have a mole in the White House, and five thousand years of military strategy on their side. But neither the traitor nor all the wisdom of Sun Tzu are prepared for Marcinko and his men. They, after all, live by the Rogue Warrior's Tenth Commandment of SpecWar: "There Are No Rules -- Thou Shalt Win At All Cost."

Goodreads review by Kevin on August 03, 2023

A fun read for lovers of military fiction, SEAL units, and traditional men's adventure novels. Marcinko (RIP) and Weisman put together a tale that rings true (not to mention a bit scary) with what is happening with China today, 25 years after it was originally published. In other books in the series......more

Like all 5 previous fiction books, this Marcinko novel hits a home run. Fun, funny, high action, and excitement. Toss in some anger and revenge elements and this will keep you turning pages until the grand finale. Enjoy.......more

Goodreads review by Christian on March 21, 2016

This was the first Rogue Warrior novel I ever read ad the one that made me a Marcinko fan in the first place, back in 1999, a few months before I shipped off to Air Force (or "Air Farce" as Demo Dick calls it), and re-reading it 17 years later, with the benefit of military, law enforcement, and over......more
