Synopsis

Ethan Blake is seventeen and desperate to escape from his dead-end life. When he sees someone B.A.S.E. jump from the top of his block of flats, it changes the way he sees the world for ever. Soon, Ethan is caught up in the adrenaline-fuelled world of skydiving. He's a natural, so it's no surprise when he's invited to join an elite skydive team, but is he signing up for more than just jumping out of planes? The team's involved in covert military operations - missions that require a special kind of guts, missions so secret even MI5 denies all knowledge.

About the Author

Andy McNab was a member of 22 SAS Regiment and was involved in both covert and overt special operations worldwide. During the Gulf War he commanded Bravo Two Zero, a patrol that, in the words of his commanding officer, 'will remain in regimental history for ever'. Awarded both the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) and Military Medal (MM) during his military career, McNab was the British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he finally left the SAS. He wrote about his experiences in two phenomenal bestsellers, Bravo Two Zero, which was filmed starring Sean Bean, and Immediate Action. Besides his writing work, he lectures to security and intelligence agencies in both the USA and UK.

Review

"You had better fasten your seatbelts, for this book is one hell of a ride! ... If future DropZone books are as well written then Mr McNab may well have created a series to rival Muchamore's CHERUB." -- The BookZone Blog The BookZone Blog "McNab has another hit on his hands, this tale is a cracker. Buy it for a teenager today." -- Natasha Harding The Sun "the action sequences are adrenaline-pumping McNab is brilliant at describing the exhilarating feeling of falling from an airplane at 12,000 feet. Reaching speeds of 120 mph, you really do need to pull that cord at the right time! Can you take the pressure?" -- Thomas Murphy Flipside, issue 45
