From the first moments in the Canadian military to the climactic tracking of one of the world's most wanted terrorists, Dave Brodhagen, with Operation Serpent, keeps readers spellbound in high-tension adventures. This story is both rich in detail and full of present-day realism, in its many directions taken around the globe. It's a great read with a uniquely Canadian ambiance that is easy to relate to. I recommend this book to everyone!

Operation Serpent is a must-read for anyone interested in the military and terrorism. The book follows one man's passion, from basic training to actual conflict, finally leading his team to take out a feared terrorist cell before they can destroy again. Each chapter leaves you anxiously anticipating the next. The excitement is palpable. When it comes to intricate plotting this book excels in it. The ending will leave you breathless. One of the best reads of my year.
Great job Dave.

“
Operation Serpent is my first military novel. I was impressed with the book, it kept me flipping pages. The author precisely describes his main
characters and the dangers, during each mission. I found the book engrossing, fueling my desire to read on to see if their missions were successful.
So many human emotions are experienced, fear, anticipation, anger, sadness, and even worry. I could almost 'hear' the silence of the night. Scared me half to death!
A well-thought-out and captivating book! I especially liked the cast of characters at the beginning of the book, it helped me keep the characters straight.
