I
continue to enjoy this series featuring future political intrigue and
conflict. The year is 2021. Brown imagines technological advances
like space planes capable of innovative warfare, specialized bots,
advanced laser pulse rockets, hybrid engines and more. He gives
readers a good idea of what might happen when a rogue enemy leader
implements a secret and deadly plan to dominate space. Thank goodness
the Iron Wolf Squadron and SkyMasters are one step ahead of him with
their advanced technology. They battle against seemingly impossible
odds. Only quick thinking and dare devil action will enable them to
survive.
Brown
includes a good balance of character development and space war
suspense. Most of the plot revolves around saving the world and the
space above it from evil domination, however. I think some of the
vehicles and warfare implements could have had a little more
description to help visualize them. Perhaps readers who enjoy
military novels will do better than I did picturing the battles.
A
good novel for readers who enjoy action packed futuristic warfare.
You

My
rating: 4/5 stars.
