LOVED this book! Joel C. Rosenberg reminds me of Tom Clancy - but with a biblical spin. He is a political strategist and has worked for people like Benjamin Netanyahu and Steve Forbes. His knowledge of who's who adds a wonderful dimension to his writing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Joel Rosenberg is an amazing writer. His work grabs you by the head and holds on tight. You find yourself thinking about this book (and the others he's written) at odd moments long after you've finished reading. The scariest thing about his stories is that they are all possible. We are living in frightening times.
Do read this book and then start at the beginning and read any and all of his work that has been published earlier. You'll become a fan, I'm sure.

Rosenberg nails it..a provocative, conservative political thriller that reads like a major Hollywood blockbuster. In the spirit of Tom Clancys Sum of All Fears, Rosenbergs The Last Jihad absolutelycrackles with high energy and a chilling premise--what i the war on terror goes nuclear.

Great book - very suspensful!
Well researched and woven with elements of possible truth.
This both is good reading and very interesting. I enjoyed it from page 1 and order the second book immediately.
This book was an edge of your seat ride from the first page to the very last. Because I enjoyed it so much I ordered the remaining books in the series. I devoured them! It is refreshing to read such suspense and action without having to deal with swear word after swear word. I also love the way the author weaves scripture in the form of Biblical prophecy into the stories.
great book, can't wait to read his next one
Nonstop action.
Great read. Eye opening and pertinent.
Excellent polictical espionage novel. Rosenberg develops compelling characters and a shifting hard to predict plot. An excellent read.
one of the best reads there is--and I have read all 6 books!!!
Who eeeeee ! Don't confuse real world news with this as you wake the morning after reading ....well done Joel.
This is an intriguing, suspenseful political thriller along the lines of Tom Clancy.
this is definitly a conservitive bent thriller. but never mind that...it is taught and well designed.
I love mysteries and novels and fiction books. I have to say that of all the books I've ever read, this has been the most exciting. I could not put the book down!

A political thriller based on the premise that the war on terror goes nuclear.
Action packed. A fast and interesting read!
anohter fun spy book
Joel C. Rosesnberg writes fiction based on facts. The Last Jihad begins with the 9/11 disasters and kept my attention throughout the book. I have read all of his books and recommend them for their relevance to what is happening in the world today.
Good Read
Jon Bennett is a Wall Street strategist and close friend of the President. His project: a billion dollar oil deal which could bring wealth to every Israeli and Palestinian. But nothing prepares him for the terror that lies ahead.
The President's motorcade is attacked, Israelis' foil a nuclear attack that leads to evidence that major US cities are next....and that's just the beginning.

As usual, Joel has done it again. A great political thriller - had a hard time putting it down to sleep!
Not one of my favorite books.
The book is a good read...but outdated
I really enjoyed reading this book. It kept me on edge part of the time, wondering what was going to happen next. The characters are believable and likeable (well, the good guys are likeable). I am now into the second book of the series and looking forward to finishing them all.
Joel Rosenberg really knows how to weave a story. The only thing that would have been nice (which I do see in the reprint of the second book of the series) is a character list in the beginning. It makes it easier to remember who the characters are, especially when they have unfamiliar names from foreign languages and cultures.

After reading the first chapter I knew I would never be able to get beyond this writer's politics. I may live in a "Red State" but I don't vote with them.
