Book Review:
''Wings of Fire'' by Dale Brown is a spectacular thriller that sees Patrick McLanahan flying into a storm of troubles. Ostracized by the government, the Air Force, and even his own family, McLanahan has reached rock bottom. But things go from bad to worse when his team is testing cutting-edge weapons in the skies over Libya, and he is drawn into a bitter power struggle between north Africa's rulers.

In the face of tragic loss, unexpected defeat, and ultimate betrayal, the ex-USAF general must decide where his loyalties really lie. Yet it may be too late to stop the destruction rolling across the Sahara. And this could be McLanahan's final battle.

Brown delivers another high-octane thriller filled with intense aerial combat, cutting-edge technology, and a deeply personal story. McLanahan is a compelling protagonist—flawed, resilient, and haunted by his past. The novel raises thought-provoking questions about loyalty, sacrifice, and the cost of war. If you enjoy Tom Clancy, Stephen Coonts, or military aviation fiction, Wings of Fire is a must-read. Highly recommended!
