"In a million years, I would never have thought that I'd want to read about an aircraft recovery mission, but I loved every last detail of Firefox and Firefox Down. Probably one of the worst casting jobs ever in the movie version, but the books were great."

" Good sequel, but not as well paced as the first installment. Released after the film. So naturally Clint Eastwood is in your mind as you read it. "
— David, 10/2/2013" Everything in the story is set up in the novel "Firefox". This novel opens where that one ended. So there is nothing to it but enjoy the thrill ride. This book really flies. "
— Joe, 7/25/2013" i love it, love it and love it. craig took me there... "
— Yetunde, 4/17/2013" Action packed military fantasy to make the commute bearable... The main character "Gant" is a kindred spirit. I read this in 1994 and again twoo weeks ago. "
— DD_Michael, 1/10/2013" An exciting story of a race against time during the cold war to retrieve an advanced plan stolen from the Russians and lost part way back to England. "
— Kate, 8/5/2012" You can't help but stick Eastwood in the pilot's seat, but that makes it all the more fun. Not nearly as exciting as Firefox, but still a thriller. "
— Tom, 6/5/2012" great book, one of the first action/suspense books i've read and enjoyed. Great casting too for the movie version! "
— Gio, 2/22/2012" A great sequel, loved it too. "
— Frank, 11/15/2011" What amazing book and so many twists and really action all the way "
— Simon, 10/24/2011" unnecessary sequel that pretty much goes nowhere for 300 pages and then picks up towards the end "
— Sandyboy, 10/6/2011" Having seen the movie, the book was not enjoyable. It is the exact same story. The story I liked though. "
— Craig, 9/6/2011" Slower and more long winded than Firefox, but definitely a good read if you enjoy Cold War era thrillers. "
— Naja, 4/22/2011" This book picks up exactly where the first one (Firefox) left off. It's a very different type of story from the first book, but the reader still gets a tale worth reading. I'd still caution about the language used. "
