Forgotten War by Don Bentley

What a JOY! I loved talking to Don Bentley about Book #4 in his Matt Drake series: FORGOTTEN WAR. It is such a great book that it’s hard to know where to begin. He’s surpassed himself with this book. I thought Hostile Intent was great, but in Forgotten War he takes an action-packed thriller to a new level. Great flashback to 2011  to the time Matt Drake first met his friend Frodo Cates, 

This book has received a lot of praise from the biggest thriller writers in the business. Of course, Nelson DeMille’s endorsement is the one that really impresses me! Forgotten War is a great read and I could not put it down. 

Lots of praise for Forgotten War..

“A fascinating, action-packed thriller from one of the genre’s most talented authors. Don Bentley delivers a blistering adventure loaded with excitement and fabulous characters. You will not want it to end!”
—Brad Thor, New York Times #1 bestselling author of Dead Fall

“Don Bentley does it again and does it well with Forgotten War, his fourth Matt Drake novel that ripsaws between war and peace and everything in between. Bentley, an Afghanistan vet, Apache pilot, and former FBI agent brings all this to the table for a word feast that few writers can match. There’s a lot going on in this fast-paced and well-plotted tale, and the bonus is the sharply drawn characters who you may—or may not—want to meet in a bar or on the battlefield. Forgotten War is an unforgettable read.” 
—Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maze

Don Bentley rocks – this guy knows his stuff! His military thrillers are among the best in the business. And Forgotten War is as good as it gets. Intense. Explosive. Riveting. Absolutely unforgettable!
Joel C. RosenbergNew York Times bestselling author of The Kremlin Conspiracy and The Libyan Diversion

“Sensationally good—I want more Matt Drake.” 
—#1 
New York Times bestselling author Lee Child

“Don Bentley’s 
Without Sanction is seriously one of the most compelling debuts in recent memory. Brilliantly crafted and written, this book is a thoroughly riveting read, and Don Bentley is an exciting new voice in the thriller world.”
Mark Greaney, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Mission Critical

“You can smell the cordite, hear the explosions, and feel the fight in this one. Action jumps from every page, thanks to an engaging premise and crosscutting suspense. Way ahead of the pack.”
Steve BerryNew York Times bestselling author of The Malta Exchange

“Without Sanction is a relentless, crackling debut about the fight against terrorism, its unacknowledged costs, and the price paid by its operatives. Don Bentley has lived this life, and he writes with deep authenticity, a serious swagger, wry wit, and a lyrical heart. This is one hell of a book.”
Nick Petrie, national bestselling author of Tear It Down

“Bentley proves himself a worthy successor to Tom Clancy.”
