Awesome Read For a Military Aviation Enthusiast

I have read all 5 of Robert Gandt's Brick Maxwell books. I must say between the time of his next release i have trouble finding something that curves my appetite. Highly Recommended.

Gandt is great!!

The Killing Sky is the 5th book in the Brick Maxwell series and it is as good if not better than the previous four. Just like the other Gandt novels in this series it took me one weekend to read as I couldn't put it down. It is great for couples since it appeals to both men and women. It has everything from the fast paced excitement of being in the cockpit of an F/A-18 Super Hornet to romance. I would best describe this book as Tom Clancy meets Top Gun which is a great combination. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an entertaining story!

Another great story from Robert Gandt!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Gandt's writing continues to improve. His characters are well-developed and the dialogue is realistic making the book very readable. Brick Maxwell is an enjoyable character and his development as a pilot and person has been interesting to follow. I definitely recommend this book and look forward with anticipation to the future installments in this series.

Yet another GREAT sequel in the Brick Mason series...!!

Robert Gandt's novels get better with each new release! This tops all previous...and they've all been incredibly good. The technical accuracy of the books and Robert's Naval Aviation background make this series particularly appealing to ex-military aviators and non-aviators alike. The plot is captivating enough, however, that readers with no military background will still be held spellbound... Great book, can't wait for the next in the series!

A compelling story, Well told.

With the heart and soul of a former U. S. Navy Fighter Pilot, Gandt once again captivates his fans with a gripping account of the Killing Sky over the war-torn Sinai Peninsula. When alter ego, Commander Brick Maxwell, loses his F/A-18 wingman to a ground-based missile over the forbidding desert of Negev in a joint training exercise with the Israeli Air Force, the author weaves yet another first-rate tale of gut-wrenching action and suspense. A most compelling story, well told by the master of his craft. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
