About this audiobook
Welcome to the Philippines outback. It’s a true garden spot, if you happen to like drug running, bush-bound
revolutionary movements, Balkanized tribal warfare, illegal weapons trading, and kidnapping for fun and profit. It’s
hostage rescue time once again for Terry Welch’s special operations company. But this is turning out to be one of those
missions. Starting with no clue as to the hostage’s whereabouts topped off by Welch and his crew having to endure a
rifle company of hated competitors supposedly sent along for reinforcement.
Part of the territory for Welch. But then an attack on both companies’ home bases leaves families and friends under
threat of death and any available support scurrying to defend. Worse, advance team members sent to reconnoiter have
been taken hostage as well. No help, no backup, team members in the soup.
Welch knows there’s only one solution: do whatever it takes. This is H Hour. And the fight is on

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5If there is such a thing as a military procedural as companion genre to police procedural, this is what Kratman writes. This is the third volume in the series but works equally well as a stand alone. The plotting is workmanlike, the characters acceptable for action genre, the place setting works. However the author's pet politics trip over his world building. One crack at green light bulbs is an amusing political aside. Multiple repetition including having plot points turn on them is just silly. A world where nothing is working as everything spirals down to barbarism is a world where someone someplace has an illegal factory making old fashioned light bulbs. This is scarcely cutting edge tech that only first world multinationals can produce. There are simply too many places where the world goes from working to not working and back to maintain my suspension of disbelief. IMO. YMMV.
