It bristles with authenticity because the guy who wrote it used to do it for real." - Matthew Reilly, author of ICE STATION, SCARECROW and THE FIVE GREATEST WARRIORS"Jack Silkstone's first novel written while on tour in Afghanistan really delivers. He draws you into his story, anyone who has served overseas in the military will really relate to the how and why these guys jump at the chance to join PRIMAL, and I'm not talking guns for hire here, I'm saying with full mission control, SOPs and directives while on a mission. With clear defined targets that Governments/Military Forces can't touch. You won't be able to put it down, and at this price, it's worth investing in a Kindle Reader or downloading the Kindle App. PRIMAL Vengeance coming soon..."As written in An Cosantóir (Defender) The Irish Defence Forces Magazine By Sgt Wayne FitzgeraldFrom the Author"Guys don't want to read about vampires and trolls. I've written the sort of book I'd like to read; hard-core action, lots of guns, cutting edge military technology, and no small dose of testosterone fuelled violence."- Jack Silkstone Views: 32
During the four years he spent in black Africa as the bureau chief for the Los Angeles Times, David Lamb traveled through almost every country south of the Sahara, logging more than 300,000 miles. He talked to presidents and guerrilla leaders, university professors and witch doctors. He bounced from wars to coups oceans apart, catching midnight flights to little-known countries where supposedly decent people were doing unspeakable things to one another. In the tradition of John Gunther's Inside Africa, The Africans is an extraordinary combination of analysis and adventure. Part travelogue, part contemporary history, it is a portrait of a continent that sometimes seems hell-bent on destroying itself, and of people who are as courageous as they are long-suffering.From the Trade Paperback edition.
