Summary: An excellent blend of fact and fiction...
Comment: I don't normally read spy thrillers of this type, and this was the first of Forsyth's books I've read, but I loved it! I grabbed this book from my husband one day when I was bored, and was drawn in immediately by the tense prose and gripping plotline. I won't give a synopsis, you can get that above. But I will say I read this almost straight through from start to finish.
No one seems to know how much of this novel is really true, and in the end, that doesn't matter, because it's writen so well that it might as well be true. The plot is crafted around a war that really happened, and the author spoke with those who had taken part in the war, giving his work an authenticity hard to match. If you're looking for an intelligent novel of this genre, then this one is hard to beat. Don't hesitate!

Summary: Forsyth Does It Again!
Comment: In his novel 'The Fist of God,' Forsyth tells the story of the gulf war with the (fictional?) threat of Iraqi nuclear capability. The story is multi-leveled and centers around British and American attempts to sabotage the production of an Iraqi atomic bomb. The characters range from a British commando behind the lines in Kuwait, to a Mossad agent romancing a European banker, to the butcher of bagdad himself, Saddam Hussein. Along the way, the reader is treated to Forsyth's unique style that keeps the pace moving from page one. Like the novels of Tom Clancy, this one makes you wonder just how much the author knows about the inner-workings of Washington, London, and other centers of power throughout the world. How much of this novel is true? I don't know. But I do know that for anyone who loves great action and well thought out thrillers this is a novel that is sure to please.

Summary: Top Class !!
Comment: Frederick Forsyth's research has always been awe-inspiring, but this novel exceeds all expectations.
Peopled with vivid characters, brilliantly displaying Forsyth's incomparable, knowledge of intelligence operations and tradecraft, moving back and forth between Washington and London, Baghdad and Kuwait, desert vastnesses and city bazaars, this breathtaking novel is an utterly convincing story of what may
actually have happened behind the headlines.
