From the Author
The novels in the Ethan Galaal series are entirely self-contained and can be read standalone. There are no frustrating cliffhanger endings.
I wrote each book to provide insight into modern clandestine operations - the heroic efforts going on behind the scenes that no one ever hears about.
My goal with these books was to educate as much as entertain. I hope I have succeeded!� � � � � ��

Issac Hooke delivers another fun, fast paced, convincingly realistic Ethan Galaal novel to enjoy!
By Photog
I read a lot. No, I should clarify; I read a lot of cheap Kindle books. I am a huge fan of the self-published author that puts out their craft in the $3.99 and under price range here on Kindle. Self-publishing is two edged sword though. Sometimes there are some pretty legitimate reasons these authors were never picked up by a major publisher. However, there is a lot of talent out there waiting to be discovered, and the self-publishing avenue has beaten down many of the barriers between those brave new authors, and folks like me, avid consumers of written escapism.
Due to the volume of books I read, and the relatively narrow categories that I focus on (Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Espionage mostly), the authors and storylines tend to blur together. I mean seriously, how many books out there have a space ship named Odyssey? All of them? It sure seems like it!
This is NOT the case with Issac Hooke. Right off the bat with his awesome mech series “Atlas”, his style and creativity truly set him apart. Now he’s branching out into other genre’s and his new “Ethan Galaal” series does not disappoint.
I picture Ethan Galaal as a taller, slightly beat up Mission Impossible-esque Tom Cruise. Ethan is a character with physical and emotional scars from a life lived violently. He is an ethical man, and that is what seems to form his source of motivation and fundamental drive. He does what’s needed to prevent others from doing the unthinkable. It is from this moral center that these books are written, and it makes them readable, engaging, and appealing.
In Terminal Phase, this third volume, Ethan is definitely looking at the backside of a career in the field. He is still highly capable, eminently competent, and decidedly dangerous, but mentally, he recognizes that the aches and pains, and worse, the mental burdens of his violent career are all taking a toll on him. It is with this attitude that he finds himself assigned a new partner on a new case that will take him all over the world, and out of his comfort zone, the Middle East. The new partner, young, beautiful, and extremely female unsettles him in more ways than he is willing to acknowledge. Consequently, he struggles to accept her, trust her, and rely on her, and acts a bit like a sexist curmudgeon. Its a bit uncomfortable reading through this part, because you want Ethan to be a better man, but the character development is such that you know why he’s doing it, though its never explicitly stated.
Fortunately the new partner is equally competent, and has a lot of interesting capabilities that are slowly revealed throughout the book, although, I think there is a lot more depth to her yet to explore in later books, and I for one am really looking forward to it!
Different from most books of this genre, the bad guys are not hunting the good guys. The government has assets available that are implemented throughout the world, and the technology level is extremely believable and does not exceed plausibility at any point. These books appear to be exceptionally well researched, providing a great deal of credibility to entire series.
My favorite part of the book was the after action scene in the hotel in Hong Kong. I loved the tension and frustration brought on by the culmination of so many factors building up earlier in the story, and the somewhat surprising revelations of his partner’s character. She’s full of surprises, and promised to be fun a character to enjoy in the future. I’d like to see her on the cover next time :-)
If you enjoyed the first book, you’ll enjoy this third installment even more, as it moves at a faster pace (it is after all, a desperate race against time), and isn’t quite a laden with religious extremism, so it has a slightly lighter touch to it. This book could be made into movie tomorrow and it would do quite well. I recommend it!

Great Read, I couldn't put it down
By Amazon Customer
I’ll start this review by rendering in my mind, the highest praise possible for any action spy thriller novel; I simply could not put Terminal Phase, by Isaac Hooke down. Yes, in my mind, this book was indeed that good. The third novel penned by Isaac Hooke following the adventures of Ethan Galaal, an undercover operative for the Defense Clandestine Service of the Defense Intelligence Agency, is a great read, full of believable action, clever set pieces and for the first time in an Ethan Galaal novel, a great, sympathetic villain.
Even though this is the third novel following the adventures of Ethan Galaal, you do not have to have read the first two novels in order to get an idea what is going on. Likewise the plot of the story does indeed stand on its own and the reader can jump right in and enjoy the plot without any burdensome backstory. The plot while imminently engaging is not entirely original, but it is still fun nonetheless. One could almost argue that the plot of the novel reads like a bad James Bond movie rip-off, but in this case it comes together and fires on all cylinders. You want a beautiful but deadly Bond girl, check, jet setting across multiple locations the world over, check, a couple of cool car chases, check, wonderful gadgets and tech, check. Finally to top it all off, the writer even gives the villain his own secret base and a plan to remake the world order. Is the plot original, no, but it works and I couldn’t put it down.
Characterization has always been a challenge for Mr. Hooke, and although the characterization isn’t perfect in Terminal Phase, the author does manage to add depth and vulnerability to the main characters and the villain. Don’t expect Shakespearean characterization, but I immensely enjoyed all of the main characters in the novel. The two main characters Ethan and Bretta, at the onset of the novel have an adversarial relationship , with Ethan possessing a condescending if not overly sexist attitude towards his beautiful companion. Fueled by amazing dialogue and banter between these two characters, the author is able to gradually progress this relationship to the point where the two are an effective if not synergetic team, complimenting one another’s strengths and weaknesses. The author does a great job showing that these two individuals are in a sense broken, broken by the stress of their line of work and a traumatic past in service to their country. However at the end of the novel they complement one another perfectly forming a believable if not deadly one two punch. Bretta helps Ethan overcome his past fears and failures, while Ethan effectively does the same for her, forming a great team. Neither character is perfect nor a Mary Sue, each have their flaws which makes both imminently relatable. I also commend the author for writing a female character that is confident in her capabilities and does not just serve as a convenient plot point and though beautiful she doesn’t just serve as arm candy for the main character. Never does Bretta function as a damsel in distress in the novel but is Ethan’s equal and at times superior in her skill set. Great job on that front.
The villains in this novel were in my opinion spectacular. The author manages to inject just the amount of gray into their characterization making his villains not complex but certainly relatable. As mentioned before, previous Ethan Galaal novels always lacked a plausible and believable villain. In the end when you boiled down to it , the villains in past novels have really just been small scale individuals, centered on regional aspirations mainly involving revenge or the clich�d Islamist terrorists dying for the caliphate. Yawn. Al Sifr, the zero, is complex and dare I say it sympathetic. Yes, Al Sifr is crazy, yes he is a megalomaniac trying to kill billions, however I found his background and his reasons for the hatred of the west believable and plausible. The novel does suffer from its fair share of cannon fodder, individuals who are simply dying for the sake of Islam, but the two main villains, the Young Falcon and Al Sifr are both former allies of the United States, who in a bad turn of events has a personal and devastating tragedy happen in their lives that radicalizes them forcing them to seek revenge. I won’t spoil it, but I found the reasons motivating their actions believable and it morphed them from potential one dimensional villains into well rounded ones. In all honesty, Al Sifr is the better-rounded of the two, devious, fully self-aware, cunning and deadly sincere in what he believes and why he believes it. The Young Falcon is another great character but in the end was underutilized and a tad underdeveloped.
I also want to say that this novel oozes authenticity. To the untrained reader, i.e me, I found the weapon descriptions, the technology used in the novel as well the tactics of our heroes, both savory and unsavory spoke volumes of the research the author put into building his world. This was time well spent, as it instantly pulls the reader into the world he is creating. The kit used by our heroes add a level of authenticity to the story which was certainly a nice touch. The extensive research conducted by the author detailing terrorist communication techniques, handling and smuggling operations of said organizations was eye opening and intriguing to say the least. The locales are described brilliantly, and one can tell the author did his homework on corners of the world never seen by most. Small touches such as detailing how people siphon power in Karachi, Pakistan do a great job pulling the reader into the world the author created. Likewise, the villain’s scheme is certainly plausible if not downright scary, leaving one with a sense of how fragile our current world order really is in this day and age.
The action scenes in this novel are beautifully written with great set pieces and frenetic sequences. The author is great at parlaying his knowledge of military hardware and weapons into believable, tense and satisfying sequences. The scenes are well thought out and choreographed as never did I believe the author was pulling a rabbit out of the hat in order to save the heroes of the novel. Plausible yet fun realism appeared to be the tone the author was shooting for throughout the work and his action scenes conveyed exactly that intention as they were well written, well thought out and enhanced the story showing the capabilities of the main characters as well as their flaws rather than just an opportunity to blow more things up
As you can probably tell, I enjoyed Terminal Phase quite a bit, finishing it all in one sitting. I loved the action, the dialogue between the two main characters and the main villain. This was a fun novel and I highly recommend it to those looking for a good spy thriller.

A glimpse into Ethan Galaal's world.
By Bradley Matthews
I had acquired copies of the authors first two books in the Ethan Galaal series, but had read neither. The author, Isaac Hooke contacted me and asked if I would be part of a group that would read prerelease copies of his future novels. I accepted and received a copy of his latest novel, Terminal Phase. I have not finished reading it yet (do to schedule conflicts, nothing having to do with the author or his novel), but I'm so excited and wanted to post a review based on what I have read so far. I then will update the review when I finish reading the story.
I am enjoying the story so far, and look forward to finishing it. The characters in the story are well thought out and very believable. I like that the main character, Ethan was just as frail and troubled as I am. I feel that this quality makes him more believable, not a super-human person. He has skills that I don't have, and has been in situations that I haven't experienced, but I feel the author has presented his character well. The other people in the story are just as believable.
The author seems to have done quite a bit of research on the technology that is used in the story. I'm not familiar with the tactical gear that is used, but l have done some of my own research (I love it), and I find that the gear is all real. The computer jargon used is also correct. My hats off to Mr. Hooke, he has created a very good story. When I finish this, I plan on reading the first two novels in the series. Thank you, Mr. Hooke for this experience.
Terminal Phase Review Part 2 1/2/16
Here's the finish to my review. The story finished off with an exciting end. The qualities that I talked about were still present to the end. Overall, I enjoyed the story, and would highly recommend this book and its author to anyone interested in this genre. I look forward to reading some more of this type of book from Mr. Hooke.
I've noticed some of the other reviews have stated that this was the last book of a trilogy. If the author doesn't bring back Ethan in the future, it would be nice if he would expand on the story of Bretta, maybe another trilogy.
Thanks again, Mr. Hooke. Great read!
