Bluebird in Ponta Delgada:A Dan Sylvester Adventure Book

No surprises

No surprises in the plot line. But if you read more than one or two of Brown's megafortress books, you get his style, and you begin to look for other things.

In this book, all of the Americans are well-known, so you look at character development in the Romanians.

A few new gadgets. Putting an attack laser in a B1 is a nice fantasy to explore. The author did not try to make the laser operation into a death ray, but seemed to describe a plausible effect for how it works. My only disbelief is how the device can keep the laser on one spot for several seconds, from a long range, between two points in space that are rapidly changing relationship to one another. But it's a good concept.
