Summary: Thrilling, so addictive I couldn't put it down until 3am!
Comment: Blackout was an amazing book by Nance and I strongly suggest it to all pilots. The conspiracy was amazing and the true story uncovered in the last 3 pages and the thrills ended on the last page! Bravo Nance, I'm now a huge fan!

Summary: ... and even that star is one too much :(
Comment: Well I'm absolutely disapointed ! I like to read books with airplanes and am ready to forgive a lot of wrong plots, impossible survivals and so on.
But this book is very strange. Leaders of major organisations are playing dumb - just an example : CIA tells the President, that a jumbo pilot may have been blinded by crashing into a smaller jet, because the explosion of the smaller jet before his cockpit was so bright - and still its known, that the jumbo was absolutely free of damage - and the President is buying that explanation ...
Well, most of the people in the book are unrealistic and unpleasant. Women in the wrong footwear drag ablebodied man that try to resist through the forrest of Vietnam ... and so on. Just buy another book. This one is just plain bad.

Summary: The first time I've been truly disappointed by Nance
Comment: I've read several of John Nance's novels and been drawn in by the plot of every single one up until now. The number of positive reviews on Amazon of Blackout puzzles me. I found the number of chases to be reminicent of a bad action movie that relies on car chases and stunts to cover up a lack of plot. The characters in Blackout were shallow and stereotypical and not at all believeable.
Generally I will read a novel in a few days, but this one took me two weeks because I kept putting it aside after reading one unbelieveable encounter after another. I did finish it, because I wanted to know how it would all wrap up, and truthfully, not much was wrapped up at all.
I would recommend Phoenix Rising, or even Turbulence, but not Blackout. It was just BAD.
