Don Brown is the author of Thunder in the Morning Calm, The Malacca Conspiracy, The Navy Justice Series, and The Black Sea Affair, a submarine thriller that predicted the 2008 shooting war between Russia and Georgia. Don served five years in the U.S. Navy as an officer in the Judge Advocate General's (JAG) Corps, which gave him an exceptional vantage point into both the Navy and the inner workings "inside-the-beltway" as an action officer assigned to the Pentagon. He left active duty in 1992 to pursue private practice, but remained on inactive status through 1999, rising to the rank of Lieutenant Commander. He and his family live in North Carolina, where he pursues his passion for penning novels about the Navy. www.donbrownbooks.com Facebook: Don-Brown

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you want a nail biting seriously bad ass realistic, jaw dropping excitement., then this book is for you. Dam good. book. This could really happen. Thank God we have the Seals. I wish we had this President.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5brillant great read. newly found fav!!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5If you enjoyed the "Navy Justice Series", then you will be happy to know that in this book Zack Brewer and Diane Colcernian are reunited. But if you haven't read the series mentioned, no problem, you can easily read this as a stand alone story. As the back cover says: "Hang on . . . and hold your breath!" This was a fast moving adrenaline packed story that at times I couldn't read fast enough.This is a story of a political assassination and terrorism on the waters from Singapore to Indonesia. Their is a nuclear attack threat to America and Zack and Diane are in the midst of the action. It is a race against the clock and the author does a great job of giving you the step by step plot and all the people (good and evil) involved in making the plan and then in keeping it from succeeding.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I'm really glad that the Brit is not reading this one. But, that only revealed the really crappy writing: Muslim bashing, unresearched and Navy biased author's filler. The theme is a good one; a large Islamic nation making jihad on the world. The details are ludicrous. For example...a rescue assault led by a USN surface warfare officer, consisting of USN SEALs, including a JAG officer just because his (second time kidnapped) girlfriend is the victim. In the exfiltration, the helicopter is shot up and the pilot chooses to autorotate a landing, when a normal landing would appear appropriate. I quit reading after that. Did not even wonder about the ending. This book is really bad!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Indonesian and the Malaysian Republics try to force to get the United States to end their support of Israel, using political assassinations and terrorism. Their final objective is to bring the battle to our homeland and blowing up nuclear bombs within some of our major cities to reach their goal, the clock is racing to a potential disaster of the likes that we've never witnessed on our soil. Can our government get control of this situation before hell breaks out.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5First thing first, I am a muslimah from Malaysia. Generally I don't really care about this genre of Islam-bashing (usually they are being written by someone who never bother to read about the topic) but I give it a go since I was bored and I've heard it’s quite a thrill.
But I was dead wrong... this book is factually ridiculous for a fiction...
If you've been in any of the South-East Asia country that is mention in this book, ALL of portrayals are fiction except the history part. Which I guess the writer came up with from reading newspaper and books. And he didn't even read up on anything with Islam and have a brainless idea for an extremist Islam terrorist that is not portraying Islam at all. (Islamic extremist are usually holy people) He should changed it into Ku Klux Klan since there's nothing much different after all.
But then after I read through Indonesians terrorist parts and fillers and then "Bang…bang…bang…bang… BOOM" and it became more ridiculous that I had to skim most parts through.
ALL the female characters in this book acts as unnecessary filler which should make sense since its a macho-men-christian-military-heavy themed action book but there's a limit to how ridiculous it can be in this book.
Plus, people don't say, he look "Malaysian", Malaysia is a multi-racial country. There's Malay, Chinese, Indian, Eurasian (some Malaccan people are from Portuguese-descent with Christian names), Sabahan, Sarawakian and others. It’s usually Malay-Malaysian or Chinese-Malaysian. Names for Malaysian are virtually endless and all Don come up with was Indonesian-like names. Shame.
If anyone has been in Malaysia should know, to find a real native of Malaccan Malaysian with Indonesian name is rare unless they came from Kampung Jawa in Malacca. Most of Malay in Malaysia uses Arabic names because by law, ALL of them are Islam.
And I had to Google the word "Un hum del Allah" just to know what the word mean and found it mean nothing but gibberish with the word Allah and defined as "Praise to God" in Arabic which obviously made the writer didn't even read or wiki-ed anything about Islam.
Real Islamic extremist is scary. Their motives are usually selfish even when they think they are not, their followers are usually gullible and brainwashed and most are unafraid on harming everyone even their own woman and children. They adored anything from middle east and always cite a twisted version Al-Quran verses as their motives since islam extremist are generally religion-obsessed like any other psycho and hated anything and EVERYTHING related to the west and most importantly, they won’t ever drink wine. Wine is ridiculously expensive in SEA and rare and even putting the scenes of terrorist drinking wine is already ridiculous.
This book is very predictable and for a fiction it lack imagination in some areas like characterization, prose, and wordings but totally imaginative in geographical and factual areas. It’s like Twilight. Only it’s not about vampire. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Malacca Conspiracy is my first novel experience with author Don Brown, but after reading this and getting snippets of previous books including the Navy Justice Series, I'm very intrigued and want more. This novel was real and engaging. It was nerve wracking and page turning. I was terrified and excited all in the same breath. I truly enjoyed this novel and want more like it.I wonder if my navy wife sister will need to borrow it...
