Brown, Dale Air Battle Force New York William Morrow & Company 2003 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good + Near Fine 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Aquan, Richard L. & Moore, Chris [cover] Spine slightly slanted. A bright, attractive copy.
"On America's newest combat base, US Air Force aerial warfare expert Major General Patrick McLanahan and his crew of daring engineers are devising the air combat unit of the future. Known as Air Battle Force, it can launch concentrated, stealthy, precision-guided firepower to any spot on the globe within hours. And soon McLanahan and his warriors will have their first target. Chased out of Afghanistan, Taliban fighters are planning to invade the neighboring oil-rich Republic of Turkmenistan, an isolated and incredibly wealthy Central Asian state. As unsteady alliances form and forces collide, the unending battle for control of the world's largest oil deposits threatens to tear apart the tenuous peace created by America's victories in Afghanistan. Now it's up to McLanahan and a handful of American commandos half a world away, aided by an untested and unproven force of robotic warplanes, to win a war in which everyone - even 'friendly' forces at home - wants them to fail."

Brown, Dale Wings of Fire New York G.P. Putnam's Son's 2002 First Edition Hard Cover Near Fine Near Fine 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall A bright, attractive copy.
"Air Force General Patrick McClanahan, ostracized by the government, the military, even his own family, is near the end of his rope. And it's about to get worse. North Africa is in turmoil. The new Libyan president has had the new Egyptian president assassinated, and the latter's widow, Susan Salaam, vows revenge. Enlisting the high-tech help of McClanahan and his Night Stalkers, she survives an assassination attempt, assumes control of the Egyptian government, outmaneuvers the Libyan president, and all but proclaims herself queen of Arab North Africa. But the Libyans, and their scheming secret allies, are not done yet. They hold a trump card - one with a deeply personal meaning for McClanahan - and it may be one that will leave even the Night Stalkers powerless." Price: 5.95 USD
