"Outstanding book by Dale Brown. I have read almost all of his books and I love LT. General Patrick McLanahan. Great story with a very good ending. President Gardner in this story is a LOOSER. "

Executive Intent Listener Reviews

" Ah, Dale Brown. Another cookie cutter plot, with ineffective politicians who despise the military techno-gear until it's too late. If the technology and the political scenarios weren't so interesting, I'd have given up on you by now. As it is... Three stars. "

" of MB 3/8/2011. std 3/10/11 9:10 at St Vincent's Worcester. Finis 3/26/2011 4 star. Exciting fiction. Hope we are busy... but probably not. "

" If you're curious why I didn't like it, here's my review of this book. "
— Helge, 12/31/2013 -
" This isn't a bad book, has quite a good story line, I feel the only thing that lets it down is the completely unrealistic president character. Worth a read though "
— Mors, 12/31/2013 -
" Geez Dale, this books (as far as I read) reads like a hand book for fighter pilots. The closest I have come to this reality is knowing there may be an air marshall on my flight. Try to stick to fiction. I'll read this when it is accommpanied by Executive Intent for Dummies! "
— Carol, 12/10/2013 -
" Lots of complex military jargon but interesting/depressing on the world outlook. "
— Mehul, 12/9/2013 -
" Good story, but too much techy info for me. "
— Dad, 11/18/2013 -
" Not bad. The first few chapters are interesting, the entire middle of the book is then setting up the last 50 pages or so. "
— Larry, 11/3/2013 -
" The McLanahan saga goes on.. resolving several issues but opening new stuff to be resolved in the next book. However, things seem to be slowing down a bit - this one was not quite the "can't put it down" thriller which past adventures have been. "
— Bill, 7/7/2013 -
" Tape - good book - enjoy tapes of these books on the commute. More technical info than I would enjoy in a book. "

" As always, Brown previews much of the world's geopolitical tensions as well as today's and the futures military technology...the continuing saga of America's cutting edge and the insipid politcal atmosphere that our brave forces must also confront "

— Shirley, 2/11/2012 -
" The McLanahan story continues...the "can do" military types faced by a timid and insipid President and his administration...this groups faces this quite a bit in their recent stories...this one deals with space-based weapons and the ensuing geopolitical drama...OK!!! "
— Mark, 11/26/2011 -
" Brown has moved from the battlefield to the desk of the chief executive. "
— Travis, 10/5/2011 -
" Good read for a break, but do not expect balanced picture of US-rest of the world international relations, as this one is heavily biased towards "We, the Americans, are always good and all the others are not". But then, reading was fun, if you lower your expectations. "

" Just started... tons of jargon! I hope it gets better!<br/><br/>Unfortunately, it did not. Not very good, I wouldn't recommend it unless you are a crazy missile/NASA nut who wants to know all the technical details about everything. "
