Product Description
Patrick McLanahan is determined to secure not only America's honor around the world but also his belief in a space-based military defense. When the resurgent Russians threaten and the traitorous American President fails to answer, America's most advanced military unit rebels against the very government it's charged to protect. In a race against time, McLanahan must outmaneuver his own countrymen, defeat the Russians, and expose the truth . . . or die trying.

 A Keeper November 22, 2008
My husband loved it. We are currently packing up some of our books to make more room and this one is one that is staying out. That is very very high praise.
 An unfinished Novel October 17, 2008
This is my second Dan Brown novel that I have read in the recent years. I would love to say that this was a great book full of action and adventure and the technical gadgetry of the last book that I read. However, this book is just horrible. My biggest problem is with the ending of the book. I won't give away the ending, but Dan Brown asks the readers to imagine the last 5-6 chapters of the book without going into specific detail on how the ending came to be. Literally, you read the 3rd to last chapter and the next chapter you read skips ahead about 5 chapters. You have no idea what is happening or why. Either the editor cut this out or Dan Brown didn't want to finish this one. Either way save your money, there are better books.
 Not physically possible September 5, 2008
I had to give up after the first chapter because of numerous violations of the laws of Physics. I love to read science fiction but it has to be plausible at some level. This book has no grounding in reality and therefore no believability.
Just read the MiG engagement scene, then stop! July 20, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
There is one great flight scene, where we (the good guys) engage two MiG fighters. It is a terrific scene, early in the book; after that, just put the book down. What follows are absurd - and unnecessary - numbers of double entendres and sexual innuendo; trysts galore; a fairly weak plot; & little character development. Who wrote this? Is simply can't be the man who wrote "Day Of The Cheetah," because the character development, plot, writing, and flight scenes are superb. I've read all of Dale Brown's books, and I was very disappointed with this one.
Lost in Tech June 30, 2008

The book was the most difficult read I have encountered since Tom Clancy overwelmed me with Weapons Technology and Agency Initials. The autored seemed bogged down in detailing this stuff, leaving the story, moral, and flow lost to the reader.
