3.0 out of 5 stars A mixbag,..., Aug 15 2003

By	Bimal Gunapala (Colombo, Sri Lanka.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Tin Man (Mass Market Paperback)

This is my first Dale Brown book. I must say I like his imagination in intergrating the high-tech gadgets (including the BERP material) into this story. I like the action and the ups and downs that the main characters go through. My main critisism would be that there is too much emphasis on tough and macho talk between the brothers and the cop community in general. I feel that as a result of this "talk" the story itself has become a bit unrealistic.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad? worse!, Jun 25 2003

By	Tango (Buenos Aires, Argentina) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Tin Man (Mass Market Paperback)

I am a fan of Mr Brown's aviation books. I can't believe it's him that wrote this drivel. Please don't buy it, buy any of his "Old Dog" books instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dale does it again!, April 30 2003

By	Warren Goldstein (Minneapolis, Minnesota United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Tin Man (Mass Market Paperback)

First off, I thought the Tin Man wouldn't be a very good book, Dale Brown usually works with bombers and aviation, and this one had not much to do with that. Well, boy was I wrong. This book is amazing. You probably already know Patrick McLanahan. His brother is a rookie cop in Sacremento and is one of the first casualties in this miniature war. Then, Patrick tries to avenge his brothers death using a new armor technology which is stronger and light than Kevlar. He then becomes known as, The Tin Man. If you have read any of Dale Browns' books, you must read this one.
