Hammerheads are needed right now!

Dale Brown had Homeland Defense pegged years before it became a reality. As I was reading this book I kept wondering what if this had been in place before 9/11 - would it have made a difference? The book was great, though predictable. It was hard to put down. I enjoyed it from cover to cover!

Simply the best

It is simply the best Dale Brown book. A perfect balance between sci-techno and real life - a balance so often lost by many techo-writers Dale himself including.

Excellent "What-If" Story

My favorite of Brown's books, this story brings back all of the usual characters in a different setting. The one drawback is too much emphasis on the V-22, portraying it as the only option.

Sensational

Probably the best book I have read, I litrally could not put it down! I had nearly no sleep for the 3 days it took me to read it.

A well told, well researched and fast paced thrill ride!

Drug dealers are using force to put themselves up against the US authorities in a brilliant yarn often similar to Tom Clancy's CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER and Stephen Coonts's UNDER SIEGE. It's up to Rear Admiral Ian Hardcastle, who sets up the Border Security Force, armed with an assortment of high-tech weaponry, to stop them. The drug barons' arms suply provides a good degree of competition too! Mercenary fighter pilots, anti-ship missles, man-portable missile launchers all bought from Argentina after the Falklands War and ex-Cuban MiGs! The pace is like any othe Dale Brown book - fast, furious and relentless, the action never stops and everything technical is well explained. Another winner!
