“A true craftsman at the top of his trade, D. H. Brown shows once a warrior, always a warrior. In “Honor Due” he takes you on a ride with more twists and turns than a winding mountain road! An excellent read and the psychological makeup of his characters is raw human nature, kill or be killed—with love thrown in for complexity.”

“D. H. BROWN in his book, 'HONOR DUE', it is very clear that one man is not inclined to flight when cornered; the Major. He will fight at the drop of a hat, even if he has to knock it from someone's head, and only considers flight, if it helps him live to fight another day. This is an exciting book, filled with heart-pounding suspense, non-stopping action, passionate love and blinding anger. Strongly recommended for those who wonder of the thoughts in a combat veteran's mind! Readers beware!”

“I enjoyed the hell out of chapter 1 [of HONOR DUE]. You have (or should I say your narrator has?) a fluid, unique, and utterly convincing voice... [it] hit me extremely strongly, [and] the promise of plot intensity, violence, intrigue, etc. also drew me in.”

“Call me David. I am really enjoying this manuscript. It is a tour de force in the well developed voice... [which] is so strong that it carries this story ahead of the other elements, which are good. You have nailed this character [The Major]. My personal reaction is that you have a terrific ability and this story is a real grabber for a certain type of reader. I think you're a very gifted writer.”

“D. H. BROWN has written a pulse-pounding story with a strong unique voice, an unforgettable character, and a mesmerizingly clever plot.”

“I did it all in one sitting, which tells you something:  I thought it was terrific!  The Northwest noir setting, the combination of high-tech and mossy rusticity, the pacing and the measured violence--it was all quite captivating.

“A tense thriller painted on a dark palette, suffused with the heavy, cedary incense of the rugged northwest forests.  D. H. BROWN's tight plotting and vivid characters continued to haunt me long after I had closed the book.”

“Lee Child--watch out!  HONOR DUE is an exciting, interesting, and informative read that appeals even to a dove like me.  It's about time we got a reality check on the warrior's mind.  Great first book.”

“HONOR DUE is a clever, scintillating mystery which engrossed me from the moment I picked it up.  The characters are well drawn, and the often tender and moving writing, hooks the reader in suspense.  The book is recommended for lovers of mystery, those who enjoy good writing, and people who are simply looking for a good read.”

“HONOR DUE.  VERY, VERY, WELL DONE. BRILLIANT.  I AM VERY PLEASED.  D. H. BROWN'S newly-created fictional character is both original, and commanding.  The author's knowledge and description of the terrain is well presented and is as tough and dramatic as the story.”

Dave Norman

“About HONOR DUE:  Forgive me, but all my earlier comments around critiquing your novel came from a misapprehension.  I thought I would be struggling through a cobbled-together manuscript, the work of a struggling beginner.  You’ve disabused me of all that nonsense!  Your work is that of an experienced professional.  For me there’s not much not to like in your HONOR DUE.”

“One of the things I thoroughly enjoy is being the first to read a newly completed book by an author with whom I've worked. So, in the midst of cleaning house this morning, I'm stopping to rest and read chapters from the second book in The Citizen Warrior Series, HONOR DEFENDED, by D. H. BROWN.

“As with HONOR DUE, the second is already proving to be an exciting fast-paced action thriller. I'm not quite sure how he does that... because his style of writing is first person and his dialogue sounds like you're overhearing a conversation between some "good ole boys" who're just passing the time of day. Yet he's pulling you into his story and the action that's going hot and heavy! You just got to admire that kind of talent!”
