Customer Reviews

A Good Read 23 Years Later

I received Free Flight as a Christmas gift 1n 1980 and have just finished reading again (December 2003) for the third or fourth time. The book reads as good now as it did 23 years ago. Terman has the ability to capture the reader's attention and keep it all the way through. There are absolutely no dull spots in this book even the scene setting flashbacks are alive.The first part of the book will make the reader wonder what this is all about then it hits like a hammer.A Four Star rating from me is indeed high praise. What happend to Douglas Terman?

You will like this book if you like tom clancy

I read this book when I was 18, and I was not a reader at all then, so a book had to be outstanding for me to even keep up with it. Set in a post-nuclear, Russian controlled u.s., its a gripping visualization of life might have been like had the Russians won a real war against us. You will love this book if you like action, what if? scenerios of u.s. history, and great stories.

Heart Stopping Action Thriller

If you are considering purchasing this novel ( and can FIND it)jump on the chance! You will be glad you did. Believable plot,and characters team up to provide a great story that you will find hard to put down. If you have ever thought of flying a plane this really puts you in the pilot's seat! I read this several times years ago but lost my copy in moving. Glad to see there are resources on the 'net to get it. Enjoy!
