IDK it hasn't aged so well, but meh... It was OK

I think it was the accents that really threw me off as well as the pave of some of the dialogue. Still though it was kinda fun like I remember when I read it years ago.

the perfect voice for the Dale Brown series

I have been a big fan of Dale Brown's Series Dreamland. Keep them coming! I have been a big fan of Dale Brown's books ever since I discovered the Tin Man, and was a big fan of how he brought a lot of modern day technology into his writing, years before it was news.

Cold War Gets Hot

The detail with which the author describes operations might make some eyes glaze over, but it helps put you in the action in a more realistic manner. You don't flip a switch and the Buff flies itself, even today. Interesting to read about the "advanced" technology that we take for granted today, such as GPS.
