A Time for Patriots

A Novel

De: Dale Brown

Narrado por: William Dufris

“A master….[Brown] puts readers right into the middle of the inferno.”
—Larry Bond

New York Times bestselling thriller-master Dale Brown delivers a story for our times. A Time for Patriots is one of his most explosive novels to date—a frightening, all-too-possible look into the near future, when the nation’s economic collapse turns thousands of Americans against their own government. In the midst of chaos, Patrick McLanahan—hero of Executive Intent, Rogue Forces, and many other previous adventures—must enlist the aid of his son and his fellow citizens to hunt down terrorists any way they can. In A Time for Patriots, Dale Brown brings the battle home!

Finally back to what we expect from Dale Brown.

I think that my headline says it all. I'd all but given up on Dale Brown, but A Time For Patriots has brought back my faith in him. Worth a read or a listen, enjoyable story.

Great story...as always.

Great story with use of CID's again . I also like the story containing Civil Air Patrol (CAP).

End of the Line, General!

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

It is always good to visit with old friends, even when they have fallen on hard times. Overall, it was a good time, but I was concerned to see some of my friends acting completely criminal, on American soil. It was entirely too frivolous and out of character.

Would you be willing to try another book from Dale Brown? Why or why not?

Always willing and eager. Dale Brown is great writer and is always believable.

Have you listened to any of William Dufris’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

William Dufris is always excellent. he has his characters down cold and keeps them consistent from book to book. I narrate Audiobooks and this is one of the harder things to do.His timing and intensity are always spot on for the pace of the book he is reading. With Dale Brown, he keeps it tense and dramatic, where it is needed. On books, like Harry Harrison's Stainless Steel Rat, he is perfectly over the top.I have made a special effort to select Audiobooks that he has narrated, even if they are new to me.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Not this one. This book does not showcase all of the best reasons for why I love this series.

Any additional comments?

It is sad to see (or hear) characters departing from their values for less than stellar reasons, and for well-established characters to be eliminated by less than world-class villains.

What else could you expect!

Great story! I'm never disappointed by a Dale Brown book!!! You've got to love them all!

Did Dale Brown see the future of Ukraine, Putin s Russia in the 2015-2022 timeframe?

Military techno-thrillerand solid wrting from Dake Brown? A given. But this series goes beyond all of that and seems to overlay recent history in a vlood-chilling way. Don't miss any of this...and join me in blood chilling wonder.

Change in the threat

Liked the continued character development. Didn’t like the losing of characters I came to like.

A good first experience with Dale Brown

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This is my first time experiencing Mr. Brown's work but I must say it probably won't be my last. I really enjoyed the story and the characters and would like to continue to follow them. Some of the plot twists were a little telegraphed but not so much so that they hindered my enjoyment of the story.

What does William Dufris bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Mr. Dufris did a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life. I would listen to another tale narrated by him.

Another Great Book

Both as a standalone, and as part of the series of novels, this was once again a great book and I highly recommend it…

Disappointment

What would have made A Time for Patriots better?

A more realistic story line

Would you ever listen to anything by Dale Brown again?

No

How could the performance have been better?

The narration could have been for a valley girl type story

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Extreme disappointment

Any additional comments?

certainly not worth the price paid, even as deeply discounted as it was.

Too far fetched for me

All of storyline, characters and events are pure fantasy- including descriptions of military equipment, etc. I couldn’t get past the second hour.
