Book Description:
Taking America back...one politician at a time TERM LIMITS In one bloody night, three of Washington's most powerful politicians are executed with surgical precision. Their assassins then deliver a shocking ultimatum to the American government: set aside partisan politics and restore power to the people. No one, they warn, is out of their reach -- not even the president. A joint FBI-CIA task force reveals the killers are elite military commandos, but no one knows exactly who they are or when they will strike next. Only Michael O'Rourke, a former U.S. Marine and freshman congressman, holds a clue to the violence: a haunting incident in his own past with explosive implications for his country's future.... "Ingenious....Outpaces anything recently published, including Baldacci and Clancy." -- Florida Times-Union Includes an excerpt from Memorial Day, Vince Flynn's electrifying new hardcover

It's a shame that Vince Flynn went on to focus on espionage and counterterrorism, because Term Limits is THE best political thriller this native Washingtonian has ever read. He does such a bang-up job of exposing the base nature of most politicians and how our system of government fails to work that part of you can't help cheering the killers on as they "take back America...one politician at a time." To me, though, the scariest part is that his characterizations of the men and women we think are representing us in Washington are dead-on accurate. A spectacular, riveting read you won't want to pass up!

Not his greatest work, but Vince Flynn didn't hold back any punches in this lengthy but interesting novel. Perhaps some of our career politicians should interest themselves to this book.

This involves politiicans, assasins, FBI-CIA, Marines and the government-lots to be solved and unraveled to make sense

Very exciting, action-packed political thriller by a great storyteller! The US is being controlled by power-hungry politicians. The president wants Congress to pass an unpopular budget. All that matters to his handlers is that the budget passes and the president is re-elected. A wrench is thrown into their plans when several key politicians are assassinated. The administration tries to spin the story, which causes another assassination and an additional warning by the killers. Enter a no-nonsense straight-shooter FBI agent to whom politics don't matter. With the quiet help of CIA, he has an idea who might be responsible. As they zero in, there is more violence. But this is vey different from the prior killings. Innocents are killed along with the politicians. Are they the same killers or copycats? What does a retired, ex-CIA black ops leader have to do with the crimes? A great read...I couldn't put it down!

This is a scary book. Copywrited in 1997, it reminds us we were born in blood as a country over conditions very much like those today. (A nearly 50/50 split politically; a ram-it-down-their-throat government, and the "out" half disenfranchised.) Well written and fast paced it ballyhoos assasination rather than the voting booth as a quick fix for apparent problems. What on earth was Flynn thinking when he wrote this?

I had heard rave reviews from several sources on Mr. Flynn's books, but this one was a stinker!! I spent the whole book asking myself who would believe this drivel.

This the first of Vince Flynn I have read and it was excellent. Really kept your attention from the beginning, I am looking forward to reading the rest of his books. GREAT READ!

This book was a rollercoaster ride. It portrays a cynical and realistic views of modern day politics.

The ISBN matches but the cover on my paperback looks a bit different. It is in decent condition and is an interesting political thriller.
