About this audiobook
New York Times bestselling author Dale Brown goes beyond the headlines in this high-tech, high-tension military thriller in which a resurgent Russia enflames sectarian unrest and violence in Ukraine and Poland, setting off a stealth robotic war and escalating an international crisis.
In the spring of 2017, the U.S. economy is rebounding under President Stacy Anne Barbeau, the country’s first female president. But her leadership is about to be severely tested: Russian president Gennadiy Gryzlov has sent Special Troops, disguised as pro-Russian activists, into Ukraine and Moldova. Though NATO is outraged, its response is tepid. Refusing to let Russian aggression go unpunished, former U.S. president Kevin Martindale approaches Polish president Peter Wilk with a radical solution: a counterattack using a covert force of Cybernetic Infantry Device (CID): manned robots.
Underwritten by the wealthy Wilk, Operation Iron Wolf is launched—without the knowledge of the Americans or its NATO partners. The CID’s initial strikes are successful, infuriating Gryzlov and propelling President Barbeau to pledge western help to investigate the attack. With international tensions at the boiling point, Martindale’s secret alliance, supported by the best military technology, is determined to outmaneuver the Russians.
In this battle that will determine the fate of Eastern Europe, just which side will win?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Iron Wolf (2015) is the 20th book in the Patrick McLanahan series and definitely one of the best so far in the series, and overall, right up there with Hammerheads as one of Dale Brown's best.The plot development, action, background are all excellent, the pace as superb and continuing on from Starfire (2014) it seems Brown's remembered how to do endings properly after the poor showing in A Time For Patriots (2011), Tiger's Claw (2012) and the overall shoddiness in Rogue Forces (2009).So it definitely seems like he's back on track writing good technically proficient military thrillers. After reading Rogue Forces I pondered whether to continue with the series and buy the others, having seen the improvement through 2011-2012 and having read Starfire & Iron Wolf I'm very glad I did get them. Now I'm looking forward to the next installment which if his writing continues on the current trajectory will be an excellent evenings entertainment.
