As a former fighter pilot, Joe Weber knows his subject well. His military
thrillers are fast-paced, accurate in every detail, and as current as this
morning's headlines. His novels have appeared on the bestseller lists of
the New York Times, Publishers Weekly, the Associated Press, and the Chicago
Tribune. They have been translated into Chinese, Japanese, Hebrew, Spanish,
Polish, Russian, and Italian for sales in foreign countries.
Mr. Weber holds a Master of Science Degree in Aviation Management. He is an
Airline Transport Rated pilot with over 10,500 hours of flight time in 43
different types of aircraft, ranging from aerobatic biplanes and high-
performance military jets to four engine transports.
He served in the United States Marine Corps from 1970-1975. A carrier-
qualified fighter/attack trained pilot, he graduated first in his class from
advanced Naval jet pilot training in Kingsville, Texas, in 1972. After his
release from active duty, he flew commercially until 1989 when his first
novel was published.
Assured Response is a riveting, all-to-real, thriller about the next terrorist
attack on America. A new generation of terrorists will stop at nothing in their
fanatical quest to destroy the United States. Conventional security is no longer
enough. Scott Dalton and Jackie Sullivan are the government's newest secret
weapons - so secret that their very existence is denied by the officials who
hired them. Their mission is to prevent a plan of nuclear holocaust that will
begin at the Canadian border and explode in the centers of American power.
From a shocking sarin attack on a legendary ocean liner to the stalking of oil
refineries by aircraft filled with deadly explosives, no attack is too insidious,
no symbol of strength and freedom immune. For Dalton and Sullivan, their expertise
has never been more necessary - their bravery never more needed - than in a world
where unrepentant evil requires an Assured Response.
Dancing with the Dragon marks a return to the classic techno-thriller.
With a plot that could be ripped from the front pages of tomorrow's headlines
Weber delivers the real deal. China, with the earth's largest population, the
largest and increasingly capable armed forces, equipped with nuclear-tipped
intercontinental missiles, is moving aggressively. Their goal: hegemony over
the Pacific starting with the establishment of strategic outposts along South
and Central America's Pacific coast. The world's only credible obstacle to
China's ambitions is the United States of America. Will China view the United
States' role in a long-term war on terrorism as weakening American resolve in
the South China Sea and Asia? From Washington to Beijing, Honolulu to Bangkok,
Dancing with the Dragon is a page-turning thriller from start to cliff-hanging
finish. Topical and candid, Weber's mastery of current affairs and technology
shines through.
