Book Overview
The master of military adventure creates the ultimate one-man army.... New York Times bestselling author Dale Brown pits men and technology against impossible odds, in vividly realized stories. Now, in his eleventh novel, he brings aerial combat hero Patrick McLanahan out of retirement and plunges him into the most personal war he's ever fought. His old enemy Gregory Townsend has come to America to ignite a reign of terror that will sweep across the nation. The police and the government seem powerless to stop him. And one of the first casualties in this war is a rookie cop--McLanahan's brother. McLanahan has plenty of experience in war. And so does arms expert Jon Masters. Using Masters's deadliest weapon yet, McLanahan becomes a one-man army, known on the streets as the Tin Man. But this time, technology is a double-edged sword--and his war of revenge may destroy McLanahan himself... and everything he stands for.

The Tin Man
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Dale Brown's The Tin Man is an action packed fast paced thriller. It is an amazing read. Like the thrillers of Tom Clancy, Stephen Coots and Larry Bond, the novels of Dale Brown brim with action, sophisticated weaponry and political intrigue.

I picked up The Tin Man for an airport ride across country, little did I expect that I'd sit in my hotel room, take a day off, stroll in a park and read, read, read. The Tin Man was most excellent! The adventure with the add touch of brother pitted against evil, -- What can I say? This author's stye of writing, competence, etc..I'm off to buy ALL his other books..expecially the best ones...appreciate anyone telling me what the "jewels in the crown are"..For me Dale Brown is "my newly discovered author of the 90's". Thanks for making an older guys reading fun! - D Vaupel

This book was exciting, well written, and had an great plot! The end ended up a lot different than i thought it would be, and started to seem a little like a TV show, which was kinda dissappointing, but still great. This is one of, if not the, best books I have ever read!
Great audio book; intriguing, suspenseful, entertaining

The seemingly possible scientific inventions added a sense of realism to this book. I enjoyed the book and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys science fiction gadgets in real-life scenarios.
A fine continuation of the Patrick McLanahan Saga..
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
I found this book to be a refreshing push from pure technology with character development to character development with a liberal sprinking of technology. Again we have Patrick McLanahan involved quite quickly after his "Fatal Terrain" exploits involved in a "down-to-earth" adventure that introduces family and other character development to the series. Although BERP is new and presents a rather interesting twist on body armor, the story reminded me very much of Tom Clancy's "Without Remorse" storyline of Mr. Kelly's background. Since I heartily enjoy following characters such as McLanahan, I found this to be a refreshing way of filling in some gaps about his character (family, background, baby, etc.) that wasn't handled elsewhere. Keep up the good work, Dale!
