Book Review: The Ghost War by Alex Berenson

I just finished reading The Ghost War by Alex Berenson today. It was an engrossing spy thriller with John Wells as a CIA agent, who previously stopped a terrorist attack in New York City. He goes to Afghanistan to investigate why the Taliban is suddenly become better trained terrorists against the US troops over there. Wells discoveres that Russian gun dealers are involved, but it gets more complicated than just the Russians behind it. China, seeing the weakness of the US at this point, is moving to an agreement with Iran and try to force a confrontation with the US.

I greatly enjoyed this book as it was so well written as the story rang completely plausible. I would highly recommend this book for anyone who likes spy-military-political thrillers.
