Dragon's Fury-The Long March (Vol IV) is an outstanding read that lives up to the anticipation of those who, like myself, are fans of the first 3 volumes of the Dragon's Fury series. It also can be considered a stand-alone volume with all the background the author provides, however I would urge any fan of military techno-thrillers to read the first 3 in progression first.
The Long March brings an exciting culmination to the scary, near-future World War III scenario depicted in the series, but still leaves the reader longing for more. The techie weapons system writing is very cool, plus this volume is excellent in terms of character development. There are no super-heroes fighting this war, only ordinary people who summon the physical, mental and spiritual strength to face this daunting challenge for the very survival of the free world.
This book also puts you in the shoes of the enemy, and is frighteningly believable. I hope the scenarios depicted in this series never play out for real, but it gives one plenty to chew on!

For those of you who haven't discovered Freeper Jeff Head's Dragon's Fury book series, the latest Vol IV, "Dragons Fury, Vol IV, The Long March", is awesome-- check it out! The book version is available on most all sites, including amazon.com, booksamillion.com, etc. It's a must-read for all military/polical techno-thriller fans. Here is my review, sent to amazon.

Hope all of you are enjoying the most restful, joyous, peaceful and fulfilling Christmas ever!
scottinoc has given me a very nice Christmas present with this review and I wanted to share it with those who are following the series.
The final culmination in the series will occur in Volume V with a real "hold on to your seat" climax. That should be out in the late Spring time frame.
Best Fregards, and again, a very merry Christmas to you all!
