Product Description
Review
‘Clancy’s got serious company.’ NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
‘When a former pilot 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
‘Dale Brown is the best military adventure writer in the country.’ CLIVE CUSSLER
‘Dale Brown is a master at mixing technology and action. He puts readers right into the middle of the inferno.’ LARRY BOND
Product Description
The second in a new series of high-tech, military-adventure thrillers centred on Dreamland, a top-secret weapons research centre, from the acclaimed author of FLIGHT OF THE OLD DOG and WARRIOR CLASS.
Hidden in the Nevada desert is Dreamland – an advanced aerospace-weapons testing facility where the best of the best develop artillery and aircraft that push beyond the cutting edge.
Dreamland’s latest project is Flighthawk – an unmanned aerial-attack aircraft. To help pilots master the complex remote-flying skills required to control it, a high-risk system is being trialled, in which a microchip is implanted in the pilot's skull. Initially, all goes well for the first volunteer, Army Captain Kevin Madrone. But the psychological stress proves too much – and suddenly Madrone disappears, armed with one of the most powerful weapons in the world…

Having read the full list of Dale Browns novels and sme of Jim Defelice, i was looking forward to seeing what new adventure the team at Dreamland were going to be up to.
Unfortuantly it took a lot to get into the book and, while books like "Flight of the Old Dog" and "Day of the Cheetah" were quick at getting the reader into the plot, i found this book dragging me from page to page rather than willing me to see what was going to happen. Happily if you keep with it you are eventually treated to the spectacular finale you come to expect from these two great authors.
Part of the problem may be getting your head round the technical aspects but i cant help thinking that the book is written in a style to get the attention of Hollywood, due to the over attention to detail.
Having said this, the story line is good and it is well worth a read but just not quite up to the standards people have come to expect from Dale Brown and Jim Defelice.
