Drone Command (A Troy Pearce Novel)
By: Mike Maden
Rating: 5 of 5
Sometimes when I take a long plane flight or before taking a vacation, I will pick a book that is a little bit different just because it is a good time to try something a little out of the ordinary. This is that type of book for me. What intrigued me about this book was the subject matter. Once I started reading it, I found myself engrossed and knew I had made a good choice. At approximately 330 pages long, the book is fast paced and an easy read.
“Drone Command” is a political thriller that centers around a crisis between China, US, Japan where the main character, Troy Pearce, and others need to fix things quickly before the world plunges into war.
I was unaware at the time I read the book that it was actually the third in a series. There is enough information to fill in the various characters back stories, for readers like me who are new to the series, while not summarizing both of the previous books or providing too much by way of spoilers for those two earlier works.
The book is set in near present time, 2017, and all of the characters and the technologies described in the book seem to be reasonably accurate and realistic. I felt that the author really understood the subject matter and the characters actions made sense through the whole story.
I enjoyed this book so much that, after I finished it, I purchased the first two volumes on my Kindle so that I can go back and read those as well.
I received a complimentary copy of this book via the publisher.
