The Red Horseman (1993) - Plot & Excerpts

I enjoyed this one. After reading The Charm School by Nelson DeMille, which occurred during the Cold War, it was interesting to read this book, which occurred after the break up of the Soviet Union. Of course this book is non-fiction, however it is loosely based on what was going on in the world at that time. It was also interesting to see Saddam Hussein as a character, post Desert Storm/Pre-Iraqi Freedom. I wonder if Stephen Coonts, while writing this, ever thought that Saddam would eventually be executed.... Maybe President Bush read this one before he went on a hunt for weapons of mass destruction, and mistook it for an actual intelligence report....... :)

A Jake Grafton novel; Jake and Toad Tarkington take on and win against the old guard Soviets, and Saddam Hussein as well.

What do You think about The Red Horseman (1993)?

No man can serve two plotlines.That's the lesson I learned while reading The Red Horseman. Stephen Coonts does a good job writing believable characters, interesting dialogue, and moving action scenes, but always leaves you wanting more (or in this case, less).This book is a good book, worth reading if you like military/political thrillers. Unfortunately, Coonts adds too much to the storyline. The Red Horseman would have been more compelling splitting them into two self-contained novellas. The two stories never jell and seem ham-fisted together.
