Act of Revenge Audiobook Summary
When terrorists attack Boston, Louis Massina races against time to save the city with a high-tech counteroffensive . . .
On Easter Sunday morning, the city of Boston is struck by a widespread and coordinated series of terrorist attacks: an explosion in the T, a suicide bomber at Back Bay Police Station, and heavily armed gunmen taking hostages at the Patriot Hotel.
For robotics innovator Louis Massina, aka the Puppet Master, this is far more personal than a savage act of political terrorism. Boston is his city–and one of his employees, Chelsea Goodman, is among the hostages facing certain death. As Chelsea fights from the inside, Massina leads his team of tech geniuses at Smart Metal to deploy every bot, drone, and cyber weapon at their disposal to defeat the fanatics and save his city and friend.
That’s step one. Step two: Find the twisted mastermind behind the attacks and make him pay.

There is a saying that "Revenge is a dish best served cold." As we come to learn the act of revenge can create consequences that we do not expect. When things and people we love are hurt we often want to lash out, but when we don't consider all the consequences of our actions the backlash can be costly. Messina, Goodman and Givens will learn this truism.A different read than books of war that Dale Brown have written about in the past, but perhaps it's because he has a co-author that now does the writing.

Louis Massina wasn't about to take the attacks on Boston lying down. He made his company's bots, drones and cyber weapons available to fight the fanatics responsible. I found Act of Revenge to be thrilling. I liked it better than the first book, Puppet Master. The ending of Act of Revenge seemed to me to leave open another book in the series. I hope so. I would look forward to reading it, as I am a Dale Brown fan.

As always these two authors put together a fast-paced techno thriller. It is well written and has a decent plot, perhaps I have read too many from this genre, I feel even though it was updated (drones, robots) the plot is becoming a bit worn. Not that I didn't enjoy this book (I did) it is probably an indication that I need to switch genres for a while

Not the bestOk writing, but lead character is not as strong as she could be. Smart, yes, but thin in deeds. Writer made her too small physically. At 5 feet tall she just doesn't make the grade as a do all heroine. Johnnie fits the hero mold better. Villain seems brighter about tactics than our geeks.

This is a “hold-on-to-your-seat” thriller that could be right out of today’s headlines. The action is non-stop, with just enough love interest to throw in additional plot twists.I am adding Dale Brown to my favorites of Robert Ludlum and W.A. Johnstone. Caution – graphic violence.
