Advantages: Another well paced Patrick McLanahan book. lots of background Disadvantages: A bit fanciful, different to the flying books
into hospital, Patrick wants revenge.
Patrick gets Sky Masters to build a bullet proof suit out of the fabric (hence the TinMan), and I will leave it there.
The book is as usual well written and full of details of the people, you learn all about the main characters lives, and what makes them tick.
This book comes after Fatal Terrain and before Battle Born, all in all it is another excellent book in the series.
With these books you do need to suspend belief occasionally but it is worth it for a gripping story from a good story teller.
Recommended for all action thriller readers ...
Advantages: Fast paced, gritty with shoot em up and gadgets galore Disadvantages: Leaves you needing another fix SOON

With the aid of his 'suit' and it's special equipment he is transformed into ...
Advantages: Fun, cool, funny, slick, looks fab Disadvantages: A bit too much on the mechanics looking cool
Let me start with the short version: I really really enjoyed this movie - it is a whole barrel load of fun! And SUCH a relief to find a superhero movie done well! :) In a nutshell, this is the story of the genesis of Marvel Comics' latest-to-be-exploited superheroes, Iron Man, aka billionaire playboy, business tycoon, and part-time genius, Tony Stark.
The film opens with a fantastic choreography of events: sandwiched between scenes of Tony Stark being cool and glamorous and basically living it up, whether in the back of an army jeep in the Afghan desert, or flashbacks to his 'normal' lifestyle, comes a brutal change in pace. When his escorting army convey is attacked, Tony is wounded, taken prisoner, and forced to undergo horrific surgery. The swirl of confusion as Stark is removed so utterly from his version of the world is very well ...
