Product Description

Review

'Clancy's got serious company.' New York Daily News 'When a former pilot with years of experience turns his hand to writing thrillers you can take their authenticity for granted. His writing is exceptional and the dialogue, plots and characters are first-class! far too good to be missed.' Sunday Mirror 'Brown puts us into the cockpits of wonderful machines and gives us quite a ride. His flying sequences are terrific ! authentic and gripping.' New York Times Book Review 'The best military adventure writer in the country.' Clive Cussler


Product Description

This is the new thrill a minute blockbuster from bestselling author Dale Brown. International terrorists, funded by a corrupt petroleum company, are attempting to destabilise the Global economy and profit from rocketing oil prices. Responsibility for tracking down the terrorists lies with one man, Jason Richter. But how effective can one man be? A ruthless group of petroleum company owners known as the Consortium, are financing an international terrorist organisation, their mission is to stage a series of attacks around the world in an effort to destabilise the global economy and profit from sky rocketing oil prices. It comes down to Jason Richter and his group of seasoned military veterans to track down the terrorists before they strike at the heart of America itself. Introducing an exciting new character, Jason Richter is set to be Dale Brown's most exhilarating creation to date. Coming with all the explosive action that fans have come to expect, "Act of War" cannot fail to enlist a whole new army of fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!, 5 Jun 2005
This review is from: Act of War (Paperback)
Wow! Dan Brown does an awsome job of taking the reader inside the world of intelligence focused warefare. In this book he introduces a 32 year old Army Major Jason Richter, inventor/designer of a new breed of of weapons, futristic devices that can hunt down the terrorist with deadly impact! Brown masterful battle scenes and expertise in millitary manuavers is again the centerpiece but this time set against the current geopolitical landescape and the war on terror.

The action packed story begins when a small neuclear device is used to destroy a Texas oile refinery. It appears to be the work of Eco terrorist and Jason Richter is called in. From here the story takes off with non-stop action, and lets just say that Richter has a great take no prisoners attitude when it comes fighting the terrorists. This book is highly recommended! Also Check out "A Tourist in the Yucatan" for another cool Thriller!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Take the day off, kick back and prepare to be engrossed, 7 Jul 2007
By O. Doyle "celticshedevil" (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Act of War (Paperback)
I've not read many Dale Brown books but after reading Act of War I'll be paying a lot more attention from now on. The best way to describe Act of War is as thriller that starts off on a high and never quite comes down. You've got the usual recipe of terrorists bent on global catastrophe pitted against the intelligence community trying to stop them. But throw in a new techno weapon and you've got a whole new ballgame. Act of war has page turning appeal, tragedy and laughs all mixed in together.....and it all works in perfect symmetry to give you a book that you'll be willing to miss work for. So do yourself a favour....take the day off....unplug the phone....and prepare to be engrossed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another great Brown Hero, 2 Mar 2006
This review is from: Act of War (Paperback)
Dale Brown has done it again! Another great book and a new hero to indulge in. BUT the big but is when are we going to see Patrick back again... supposidly in book 19 (according to skybird). The Edge of Battle is out at the end of may in the UK, the sequel to this book. Read both... Fantastic books!!!
