Anyone Who Love Tom Clancy Will Love This Book
This book was fantastic all around. It's an epic story of about a potential techno-war in Korea. The North invades, the South and American forces fight back. It's a pretty constant paced book that is superbly written. The narrator is great but not stellar. Larry Bond, who has co-written with Tom Clancy, has produced a believable book with a believable outcome. If you want a great alternative to anything Tom Clancy, look no further. #Audible1

It’s no Tom Clancy book
It took me a couple chapters to get use to the narrator and gain interest in the story. The book would be greatly improved by a different narrator. “J. Charles” didn’t do a bad job, just lacking in emotion and cadence.

One of the greatest fictional war
Growing up my father served in the South Korean airforce and he read this book while serving as a phantom pilot he said this was one of his favourite books while serving and I agree with him Red Phoenix is one of the greatest war fiction ever written.

Classic war story that takes place in Korea
A good story with multiple points of view, the fighter pilot, and the infantry platoon commander. I enjoyed this book.

'Decent' Speculative Military Fiction
Larry Bond is incredibly good at writing military tactics and combat descriptions. The hand-to-hand, firefight, dogfight, and cat & mouse submarine/ASW encounters in this book are well-scripted and get the pulse pounding. Military-tech geeks like me also get satisfying in-depth descriptions of hardware and weapons. Furthermore, Bond endeavors to give his readers a look at battles from the perspective of in-the-cockpit pilots, on-deck sailors, frontline grunts, company commanders, and generals.. the result is immersive. Unfortunately, his imagination of a second Korean war is explored so extensively that it falls apart: there are no central characters, for example.. only multiple relatively peripheral characters [Bond tries to make them relatable but expands his "what-if" thought experiment (appropriately) to geopolitical levels - the scenario is thought-provoking but the scope is too large to allow for believable characterization].
His musings on political maneuvering/trade wars/economics are likewise an overreach (albeit plausible). Bond should have stuck to the combat.
Unfortunately, the narration from J. Charles contributes to the disappointing impression I got from this audiobook. His diction and timbre/tone/cadence are professional, but he reads too quickly (playback at 0.90X is recommended) and his voice-acting is legitimately *awful* (Charles has no business trying Asian accents, for example).
In addition, Brilliance Audio is guilty of a couple of instances of very poor sound editing (very occasional static and volume issues).
I read this book 30 years ago and I remember being impressed. It still feels genuine now and rings true, but it's a little dated (war is extremely different now).
The lapsed relevance and relatively poor production values render this recording worth a mere 5 stars out of 10. Nevertheless, it was offered for Free as part of the 'Plus' catalogue and I'm glad I downloaded it (I loved 'Red Storm Rising' and this author provides what is promised).
Bottom line: I enjoyed 'Red Phoenix'.. but I wouldn't spend a Credit on it.

Predictable and Racist
This book was a slog. I guess I was looking for another Red Storm Rising, and this tries to deliver, but...
The main issue is the horribly racist performance of the narrator. Truly cringe-worthy, especially when combined with the tired dialogue and character types.
