An action-packed terrorist thriller from global bestseller Wilbur Smith

“The blonde girl held up her left hand and showed him the shiny grey egg. ‘This is a special grenade, designed for killing the occupants of a battle tank,’she said quietly. ‘It could blow the fuselage of this aircraft open like a paper bag or kill by concussion any human being within fifty yards.’ She watched their faces, saw the fear bloom like an evil flower.” One man wants to rule the world. One man needs to stop him. A passenger plane bound for London is taken hostage by the Action Commando for Human Rights. The passengers’only hope is Peter Stride, leader of Thor Command, who uncovers the real leader of this operation, a shadowy figure known only as Caliph with plans as mysterious as they are violent. When Thor Command obtains evidence that Caliph has agents in almost every country, and is behind nearly every major terrorist activity, Peter understands that no one close to him is safe. But he also learns Caliph’s ultimate, terrifying goal: control of the entire world. Is Peter capable of doing what it takes to stop Caliph —once and for all?

Like all Wilbur Smith books, this also was a winner.
Its not a historical novel like many of his earlier ones, but a more modern story. Its quite an adventure, sometimes a bit far fetched, but in this case, it just adds to the excitement.
How they actually hijacked the plane, is sort of a wake-up call, it was so easy, so slick.
This is one is different than his earlier books, but its not to be missed.

Captivating and keeps you guessing till the end. Once started a very difficult book to put down. Enjoyed reading every page.

Wilbur Smith never ceases to provide great reading. In the series books, his characters develop well, and most provide unexpected twists and changes. The plots do the same times ten. In the stand-alone books, new and provocative insights into the innermost fabric of African life create a fascinating journey into Smith's homeland.

Good quick read. Wilbur keeps the action moving but not too big of surprise at the end.
Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2013
The subject matter for Smith was different and exciting. It had some of his stand by signature items and also much that was new and exciting. It was not his typical work set in Africa. I hope he does more with the characters of Stride and Magda. It started very exciting, got mellow but remained interesting in the middle, and was fantastic near the end.

The terrorists which force landing on Jan Smuts Airport. SA. are example of the 68 generation.
At that time most graduates of Universities on the Western Europe continent, came out with mixed ideology. Either Marxists, or Anarchists. As seen later such souls are easily manipulated.
Gen. Peter Stride is good example of British upper class officer. Trained to take on terror attacks of our modern times
Magda the ex-Soviet spy does credit to her trainers and the character and is unforgettable.
When Peter Stride, incognito, is scheduled to meet the Caliph in a castle on the cliffs of Jericho and discovers that it is the commander in chief of Atlas, very well connected to the White House and more, is the Caliph himself.
To me it seems that the model is taken from Rashid al Sinan (Old man of the mountain) Grand Master of The Assassins, the fanatic murderous Islamic sect in the time of the Crusades.
At the time of the story The Seven Sisters have lost the oil monopoly and money created in the Gulf of Persia are getting power, also it can be seen that wealth is moving from the west to the east.
The sinister hawks do not take it lightly and apply methods of the Assassins to pave their own way.
The message could be in this book: Be aware of the Hawks. Trouble they make affects us all.

I am currently following the author Wilbur Smith, the writer of adventure stories based mainly in Southern Africa. I am collecting his books either new or second-hand and building up a personal library. I can read them in my own time and if or where possible go back for reference purposes. All his stories offer excitement, adventure and an insight to the country its animals and people making it difficult to put down.

Amo questo libro è questo scrittore. Questo è tra i più avvincenti che ho letto di Wilbur Smith ed ho voluto leggerlo anche in lingua originale. Credo sia un libro assolutamente da leggere. Come tutti i suoi romanzi. Le sue descrizioni sono uniche!
