If you enjoyed The Last Jihad and The Last Days by Joel Rosenberg, chances are you will enjoy The Ezekiel Option.The following is a brief synopsis of the book:
With Saddam Hussein and Yasser Arafat out of the way, a dazzling era of security and prosperity seems to have come to the Middle East. With the help of an American president trying to spread freedom and democracy, the Israelis and the Palestinians have signed a historic peace agreement. Violence is down. Their economies are booming.But a new evil looms on the horizon. A dictator is rising in Russia. Iran is feverishly building nuclear weapons. A new Axis of Evil is emerging, led by Moscow and Tehran. And Jon Bennett and Erin McCoy - two senior White House advisers - find themselves facing the most chilling question of their lives: Is the world rushing to the brink of an apocalypse prophesied more than 2,500 years ago?
I did enjoy this book. I liked the characters (by now you are really getting to know them) and the further development of Jon and Erin. Jon Bennett is really coming into his own and taking matters into his own hands. So much so that at one point in the book he goes toe to toe with the POTUS. The fall of Russia and radical Islam is end game in this book and Rosenberg really maps out the path to their destruction very well. The secondary story of Jon rescuing Erin is also a thrill ride (although a bit on the "um...I am not sure that would happen" side).
