Book Review:
''Nerve Centre'' is the second thrilling installment in the Dreamland series by Dale Brown and Jim DeFelice. Hidden in the Nevada desert, Dreamland is an advanced aerospace-weapons testing facility where the best of the best develop cutting-edge artillery and aircraft.

Dreamland's latest project is Flighthawk—an unmanned aerial-attack aircraft. To help pilots master the complex remote-flying skills required to control it, a high-risk system is being trialed in which a microchip is implanted in the pilot's skull. Initially, all goes well for the first volunteer, Army Captain Kevin Madrone. But the psychological stress proves too much—and suddenly Madrone disappears, armed with one of the most powerful weapons in the world.

Now, the Dreamland team must find Madrone before he uses the weapon—or before the technology falls into the wrong hands. The race against time is filled with intense action, moral dilemmas, and cutting-edge technology that feels frighteningly plausible.

Brown and DeFelice deliver another fast-paced, action-packed thriller with authentic military detail and a compelling human element. The psychological dimension adds a unique layer of tension that sets this novel apart from typical techno-thrillers. Highly recommended for fans of Tom Clancy, Stephen Coonts, and military aviation fiction!
