Customer Reviews

Very Readable

This was a very good read. As an ex-USAF aviator, Butler knows his stuff and did a good job of staying technically accurate. (The only small mistake occurred on the last page, where he referred to a character as a Royal Air Force Major - the RAF doesn't have such a rank.) But, other than that it was a compelling story.

Amazing tight plotting!

Jimmie Butler obviously knows the military world that he speaks of in this exciting, tightly plotted story. Couldn't put it down.
