Description
To destroy Jade Dragon's lair, an unthinkable weapon is unveiled. Have the Allies gone too far?
The Chinese super-AI had achieved its master plan—an autonomous robotic army, air force, and navy. As President Yao and the People's Liberation Army faced defeat on the battlefield, full command of the PLA was handed over to Jade Dragon, which says it can slay the enemies of China to usher in a new dawn of global Chinese hegemony for the 21st century.
The robots were coming…
With the Terracotta Killers walking the land, Shadow Dragons and Dark Swords prowling the skies, and Sea Dragons roaming the Yellow Sea, a dystopian science fiction nightmare had become real. Machines now dominated the battlefield.
Were these wonder weapons being unveiled too late? Was Jade Dragon's robotic army enough to turn the tide?
Every inch of ground was surveyed, monitored, and fought over as man fought machine for survival. Could the arsenals of democracy outproduce China? Could the West outlast the East, or would Jade Dragon pull off the impossible—and win the AI war?
With victory or defeat balancing on a razor's edge, the Allies refused to go quietly into the night. They had a secret technological breakthrough of their own. Would the ends justify the means if it led to victory, or were the unknown risks too big to accept?
President Delgado was about to order the unthinkable.
You'll love this eighth and final book in the Monroe Doctrine series because the way the limits are pushed is frightening beyond imagination.

Best World War III series
This is, hands down the best near-future WWIII series! You will wish it went on for another book! Great narration, characters, and story. James and Miranda don’t know how to disappoint. Cannot wait for the Taiwan series!!!!

A worthy end to a great series
The final volume of Monroe Doctrine is a fitting end to the series. Like the previous seven editions, the final volume of the story is well-written, has a tight story line, and has the right balance between high-level politics and action.
As you would hope for the final book of a series, the story does a good job of closing out its main threads. Of course, the most important of those is the AI/Chinese angle. The authors could have gone in the direction of Skynet but to their credit, they don’t go fantastical. Like the rest of their story, Rosone and Watson keep things realistic and believable and for me at least, this served the series very well.
Having said that, I was hoping to see more scenes and battles with the Terracotta Warriors. The authors did such a great job of building them up. When they were used, it was to spectacular effect. At one point in the final book, it sounded as though they had five to ten thousand of these AI monsters. It would have been epic to see masses of things charging forward in one final stand. Alas, I must be satisfied with what I did get.
But the real strength of the Monroe Doctrine is its action. Not surprisingly, after writing seven books with hyper-realistic and drama-filled action scenes, the final book delivers. There were many great scenes, but the one I found most compelling was the US Army’s storming of a well-entrenched defensive line at the mid-way point of the book. The detailed use of sappers, armor, and infantry was well done – visceral actually.
I'm pleased to report the Monroe Doctrine closed with a satisfying end. Well done James, Miranda, and Alex Aaronson who helped to co-author books four and five. This entire series had to be around a million words. To keep a million words organized and entertaining – well it’s no small feat.
I highly recommend the Monroe Doctrine series for anyone who likes modern warfare fiction. It is one meaty entertaining look at what World War III could look like.
