An inconclusive end knocks this down. Way down. 1 of 10 stars

Well, one of his better books... but they're all kinda growing old on me. Same ole people, same ole planes... just different locations.
Still a good read though.

I just can't keep track of all of the Dale Brown series...I DO know that I get swept up into them & enjoy the reads...The Dreamland heroes save Brunei in this episode...another good anti-terror pulp read!

Reasonable plane fodder. Have been looking for a clubs cussler alternative. May keep looking. Kept my attention but I was a captive audience. Might not seek out, wouldn't avoid either.
