Having read the full list of Dale Browns novels and sme of Jim Defelice, i was looking forward to seeing what new adventure the team at Dreamland were going to be up to.
Unfortuantly it took a lot to get into the book and, while books like "Flight of the Old Dog" and "Day of the Cheetah" were quick at getting the reader into the plot, i found this book dragging me from page to page rather than willing me to see what was going to happen.
Part of the problem may be getting your head round the technical aspects but i cant help thinking that the book is written in a style to get the attention of Hollywood, due to the over attention to detail.
