About this listen

A single pilot can fly the US Air Force's powerful fighter plane, DreamStar - and he's a KGB mole. Captain Kenneth Francis James - a.k.a. Andrei Maraklov - has been ordered to steal DreamStar, an XF-34 fighter that has the frightening ability to respond to its pilot's thoughts and issue its own commands. It's up to Lieutenant Colonel Patrick McLanahan - the hero of Dale Brown's earlier thriller, Flight of the Old Dog - to remove the DreamStar threat. McLanahan and his Air Force compatriots take up the challenge using a modified F-15E called Cheetah, which is designed to capture or destroy DreamStar. Read by actor Joseph Campanella, this nail-biting thriller is high-tech suspense at its best.

the amount of abridgement of this story completely ruins it for the listener.
we miss far too much of the crucial elements and it has been a great disappointment after reading it in hard back a year ago.
I wanted to hear the story again however when they only tell 1/4 of the book, it just isn't the same.

abridged too much

this is missing significant quantities of the book that make the story make sense overall

highly abridged

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
This skips larges chunks of the book, very disappointing . Day of the Cheetah is a great story but this audio book leaves most of it out.

Synopsis rather than an audio book
