Fiction became reality
When I read this book in 1995, I thought that this fictional weapon would be an awesome addition to the first country that created a real- world version. Fast forward to the modern day and we have become surrounded by ever smaller drones with myriad capabilities. It will not be long before the hummingbird size edition, armed with a laser, will pop up for uses both good and bad. Look to the skies, my grandchildren. Your lives may depend on it.
Decent, but not up to par
Dean Ing is a competent writer, but for some reason fell short with this novel. Butcher Bird is about an embittered aerospace engineer with an inflated ego and his Syrian funded creation, a technological marvel for assassins, using "Black" stealth technology and a miniature nuclear power source. The villain uses his "Butcher Bird" to knock off top aerospace researchers he feels have slighted him in some way in the past. The hero of the book, a nearly-flawless, middle-aged man with a practically teen-aged lover, single handedly tries to rescue the world from this mad scientist. I found Butcher Bird to be an entertaining, but, in the end, disappointing story. It starts with a bang and goes out with an unrealistic, overly contrived fizzle
Fast Paced High Technology Thriller
In the Butcher Bird, a group of foreign nationals, led by a brilliant but frustrated Aerospace Design Genius, and a talented Software Engineer develop an incredible weapon. This weapon, designed to loiter in an area, searching for a target, and instantly dispatching the target, without detection. When the CIA finds out about the scheme, they call upon a high tech aerospace thinktank to design a similar weapon, and find it's weakness's. Using beyond state of the art tactics, the team develop a profile to prevent a national disaster
Intriguing!
The Butcher Bird weaves an intriguing mystery tale that holds the reader's attention until the plot is revealed. The story is not for the "faint at heart" as it reveals the shadow side of human nature. However, for those who want to hunker down with a mind-tingling search to solve a strange murder, the Butcher Bird captures the imagination. A good backpacking book to carry along and absorb your thoughts away from the hum-drum workaday world. [email protected]
