Praise for Andrew Watts and The War Planners series:

"I now add Andrew Watts to my favorite authors list: Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, and David Baldacci... Highly recommended!"
"I honestly don't remember a storyline that has so completely captured me in this genre before... "
"I liked this book a lot. I am a fan of Tom Clancy and James Patterson books and this book is as good as any of theirs. Watts starts with a chilling premise and crafts a storyline with enough detail and realism to make you believe it just might be possible. I look forward to the next in the series."
"Frighteningly real."
