MWSA Review
Monroe Doctrine: Volume One is such a scary thrill-ride that the readers will wonder how much of it is really fiction.
Four years after COVID-19, China builds a supercomputer like nothing ever seen. Programmed to collect and find patterns among billions of individual data points, it draws up a path to lead China to world domination. At the same time, the world economy and the US economy are both failing, creating the perfect time for a new leader of the world to emerge. The Chinese government initiates a scenario scripted by the computer that uses deception, deepfake technology, and China’s extensive resources to start a war with the United States, and all is going to plan. But has the computer really thought of everything?
This book is an incredibly interesting read that mixes machine learning technology, espionage, and modern-day military action to create an eerily plausible tale that doesn’t seem too far in the future at all. I particularly liked how the authors used pop-culture references to the “Terminator” franchise to further heighten the tension surrounding so much power being given to an artificial intelligence.
Plenty of action and well-written, this book will be a big hit for fans of Larry Bond, Tom Clancy, or Dale Brown.

The president of China had other ideas.
Was this their chance to conquer?
The war began at the speed of light. The entire NATO alliance stood on the brink of destruction. Cyber-attacks, deepfakes, and a wave of social media disinformation wrought fear and desperation across the globe.
The sleeping giant was awake.

You’ll love this fast-paced techno-military-thriller because we live in a world where this fiction could be truer than we suspect. It will keep you turning the pages.
