Patience, Imagination and Research
Magnanotron follows an elite military team who are tasked with testing a new defensive weapon and protecting it from those who are trying to steal the technology. What inspired the setup of your story?
In my Bond of Brothers stories, I like to use current events, things that happened or could happen in the world we live in today. I have my base in my characters and the idea comes to me. Patience, imagination and research, and the game is on.
The characters in your series are well-developed and interesting. What character did you enjoy writing for? Was there one that was more challenging to write for?
It’s Tex Larson, I can see him clearly, the way he moves, his imposing presence before me. This time it was Jason Patrick, his change to Commanding Officer in charge, took some time to see him clearly.
How did you balance the action scenes with the story elements and still keep a fast pace in the story?
This comes two ways for me. One way just seems natural to me as the storyline brings itself and builds into the action scenes. The other way is carefully placing the action scenes after the bulk of the story is written. This is done as I go through the story and flesh things out to give the writing the feel it needs.
I hope the series continues in other books. If so, where will the story take readers?
Our special forces are on call, they stand ready to protect us and so will my Delta team and the Bond of Brothers.
I’m sure something will hit the radar, start the wheels rolling. Bring the fight back to protect our freedom and the need for boots on the ground. Delta will be back.

Magnanotron, A Bond of Brothers Thriller
In Magnanotron, part of Robert Saniscalchi’s Bond of Brothers series, readers are thrust into a world of Delta Force operations, where tackling cartels and Russian operatives is the order of the day. This installment spotlights Jason Patrick, a seasoned soldier transitioning to an administrative role. Saniscalchi skillfully navigates Patrick’s adjustment to this new phase of his career while entangling him and his team in a high-stakes scenario involving protecting American scientists and groundbreaking discoveries.
Saniscalchi’s narrative style echoes the essence of an action-packed film reminiscent of “G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra” or the “Mission Impossible” series. The use of cutting-edge technology and vivid action sequences gives the book a cinematic quality, making it feel like a leap from a Hollywood script. The characters are crafted with depth and dynamism, and their interactions, enriched by a history of shared experiences, add authenticity to their relationships. Inside jokes and varying levels of camaraderie are portrayed effectively, contributing to a sense of real-world immersion. The book presents a unique approach to dialogue and character development. The characters often converse in a distinctively formal manner, setting them apart from typical conversational styles and adding a unique flavor to their interactions. While occasionally diverging from everyday speech patterns, this stylistic choice in dialogue adds a layer of intrigue and can be seen as a creative deviation from the norm. Additionally, the portrayal of the Russian President character is notably stylized, offering a departure from conventional characterizations and enriching the narrative with a bold, larger-than-life figure. These elements, while distinct, contribute to the novel’s overall tapestry, providing readers with an experience that is both unique and memorable.
Magnanotron largely succeeds in its homage to classic action cinema. The book’s overall energy and the appeal of its main character are likely to resonate with readers seeking an adrenaline-fueled adventure. This book offers a journey that, much like the action movies it resembles, is both familiar and thrilling, inviting readers to indulge in its spectacle once and potentially many times more.
