My beloved father, who introduced me to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and A Canticle for Leibowitz, gave this book to me. Unfortunately, I did not finish it. In fact,I got 50 pages in and realized this book was what happens when Top Gun and the Hammacher-Schlemmer catalogue have a baby together.

The plot of the book I read, called Dreamland, does not seem to match this Goodreads description. A heavy mix of tech -vs- story....every weapon is cataloged, no alpha designation get unused. Despite some unbelievable or impossible situations, like a barrel roll in a B-52 or deploying a weapon without NCA approval, or a LtCol replacing a LtGen, or an OSD civilian calling the LtCol for Congressional advice, it was a pretty good story. Dale Brown does that and has done that in his other show more series, so get over it. Nothing heavy here ... move on to the next story. show less
