This is Forsyth all right. When I read Forsyth it's like I read a history book only better. Because then I knew it's not going to come out in any quiz or mid term...so I enjoy it even more.

The story is more or less the same as the Fist of God...with the same character. But you don't have to read Fist of God in order to understand the character or lose the story. This book provides quite a repetition so for me who have read the Fist of God...it's a bit boring. You know how Forsyth is with details.

I agree with some opinions that said he discussed too much of background story or history that may not even be too related with the story itself. It's Forsyth...but this time it's just too much.

Still it's predictable just like Fist of God. It's just too bad that Forsyth has to terminate Mike Martin. That I wasn't expecting. He usually goes with happy ending...I mean this has a happy ending but the hero just died. I kinda like Mike Martin. I wanna see him finish that barn up on the hill.
