Publisher Description

“A master….[Brown] puts readers right into the middle of the inferno.”
—Larry Bond

New York Times bestselling thriller-master Dale Brown delivers a story for our times. A Time for Patriots is one of his most explosive novels to date—a frightening, all-too-possible look into the near future, when the nation’s economic collapse turns thousands of Americans against their own government. In the midst of chaos, Patrick McLanahan—hero of Executive Intent, Rogue Forces, and many other previous adventures—must enlist the aid of his son and his fellow citizens to hunt down terrorists any way they can. In A Time for Patriots, Dale Brown brings the battle home!

Slow read, not up to par

I have read everything this author has written. This is not up to his usual standards. Long on words, short on story. Not as compelling his other works. I hope he does better next time.

A Time for Patriots

I have read all of Dale Brown's books....this one was very disappointing as I continued to read this one hoping to get past all of the inane language and mundane details of

Profoundly unreadable

Dale brown's first few books were inventive, original and absorbing. They were hard to put down. But his discipline has devolved as the series continued and the result in this instance is a disjointed, rambling story whose characters are thinly drawn caricatures all in service of a plot that frankly made no sense at all. The ending is not even remotely believable but then neither were the beginning and middle. The book's only constant seems to be that, with one exception, every action taken by every character in the book is inexplicably stupid. That one exception is a detailed account of a search and rescue operation run by the Civil Air Patrol - an outfit with which Mr. Brown clearly has had personal experience. But even here he falls down as he regales us with a flood of facts and details about this organization in a way that quickly bores us while not serving to advance the plot in any meaningful way.

My modest suggestion to Mr.Brown would be for him to read a better class of literature himself in the hopes of drawing his own work up to a more rational level.
