(More customer reviews)Just like the first book of the XBattalion series, "OSC" moves like a race car jammed into fifth gear. The top-secret XBat copter force is ordered to put out several political brush fires in South America, only to discover that one of them might involve nothing less than the fate of the world. All the while, the CIA's multi-billion dollar, ultra-sophisticated spy satellite system is failing, and no one knows why. The two plot lines collide in one of the most unlikliest places on Earth, causing the book's heroes to make an incredibly harrowing last-minute flight to save all. The action scenes are very realistic; the flying sequences are not for the faint of heart. The balancing act that many special forces members must endure between their personal lives and service to their country is also well brought out. According to a web site given on the book's cover -- www.XBattalion.com -- apparently no one really knows who the author Jack Shane is. But obviously, he knows his stuff. I'm looking forward to Book 3.

The expert, the fearless, the crazy-the most lethal weapon in the U.S. arsenal
Only the best can make it in X-Battalion, the top-secret experimental arm of the U.S. military's TF-160 Nightstalkers. The mavericks and madmen who fly the highest tech attack helicopters make their own rules as they shuttle CIA spooks and Special Ops commandos to high-risk zones -- and leap into the fight without question whenever the need arises.
But fresh from a successful mission against a Colombian drug lord, XBat finds itself the target of a new and unexpected enemy: fighter jets from a revitalized Venezuelan air force. A brutal new-age SS is coming alive in this volatile South America powderkeg, with the power to start a war and a terrifying weapon to help them win it. But now they've got XBat's rogue warriors on their tail, who are determined to pursue the growing threat from Caracas to Cuba . . . and eliminate it by any means necessary.
