This book had me excited to find out more from front to back. The story of all the happenings of skunk works was fascinating, however the format was frustrating. I enjoyed his writing, but the constantly wavering timeline became frustrating half way through. As annoying as the structure was, it did not kill the book. Finding out the story of all these legendary planes was well worth the read. ( )

Fascinating insight into Lockheed and the stealth fighter program. If these topics interest you - this is a must read. ( )

Exceptionally entertaining and enlightening. ( )

This book was an easy read that was quite captivating. Rich's pride in Skunk Works' products is evident, but so isn't his bias as he discusses projects that they didn't win. You really feel like an insider when reading this book as you learn many details that have probably been classified for many years. ( )
