Houston factory is newk'd. The National Security ADVISOR grabs a geeky Army Major with a new cybersuit and an FBI analyst control freak--stuffs them together. This, against the advice of their cabinet bosses, under a national security council Marine Sergeant Major who treats them like marine recruits. I just can't imagine the suffering of the American people with an American anti-terrorist strike force at the will of the President, with Posse Comitatus suspended. At that point, I gave up and shit-canned the book. DNF. No more Dale Brown Jason Richter for me. I have better things to do then pound my ears with this drivel.

Title: Act of War Series: ----- Author: Dale Brown Rating: 3 of 5 Stars Genre: Thriller Pages: 432 Synopsis: The United States gets nuked. With the potential for more. A military science geek has been working on a powered exoskeleton for infantry and gets his chance to showboat. However, sinister forces lurk in the background and may bring ruin and mayhem to all that Americans hold most dear [ie, themselves]. My Thoughts: This was recommended to me by somebody, but I didn't write a private note on who it was before I added it to my TBR list, so now I can't remember. So thank you Nameless Person who isn't really Nameless but I Just Forgot. If you know who you are, please let me know because I really needed this read at this time and I'd like to thank you. This was flufferific. Nothing but action and mecha and badguys getting their collective asses kicked all over. And the best part? Lots of them are old school commies and commie pinkos! Nothing I like better than a good commie bashing. The bad was the United States getting nuked. I am NOT a Superman IV kind of guy, but the use of nukes scares me pants-less, like it is supposed to! My only other experience with Dale Brown is the book Hammerheads, from back in highschool. All I remember about that is some guys with sledgehammers bashing a plane apart, or something. So I don't know if this book is typical or not, but I'll probably get a couple more for when I need some blow'em up action that's easy on the plot. " geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Act of War (book 1)
Act of war takes readers deep into the new world of intelligence-focused warfare, and introduces a new hero: 32-year-old army engineer Jason Richter, designer of a whole array of futuristic infantry weapons and devices to hunt down a new breed of enemy. His unlikely partner is FBI Special Agent Kelsey Cornell, a no-nonsense intelligence officer who is caught between two brutal worlds: the terrorists who kill without remorse and Richter's high-tech military hunter-killers who will stop at nothing to destroy them. As the head of a top-secret military unit, code-named Task Force TALON, Richter must lead his group against a cabal of international terrorists backed by a powerful consortium who are determined to destabilize the global economy.
