Rating:  Summary: Super. Review: One of the best book that I have read
Rating:  Summary: It's impossible to put this book down!! Review: I've read just about every thing Forsyth has written and this is defintely one of his best! To me he is the best storyteller in the western world and it's too bad that no more works can be expected to come from his typewriter ( or is it PC now&adays?). Anyway, this is a must for all spy-novel lovers and gives a very fascinating, and maybe even realistic, insight in the Gulf war.
Rating:  Summary: Yet another brilliant book written by Frederick Forsyth Review: This is the best book that I have read by Frederick Forsyth.Congratulations to the author on a well writen book !
Rating:  Summary: A FACT AND FICTION FILLED BOOK Review: THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I HAVE READ. ALTHOUGH I'VE READ HIS "ICON" I LIKE FIST OF GOD MUCH BETTER BECAUSE THIS IS ONE TYPE OF BOOK WHICH HAS BEEN VIEWED BY THE AUTHOR FROM ALL ANGLES.
Rating:  Summary: A fantastic, action packed strategic thriller Review: One of Forsyths best works. I found THE FIST Of GOD to be a truly amazing book, which doesn't leave out the slightest bit of detail. The immense amount of research that has gone into the creation of this book is clearly evident. The technical data is outstanding and the strategic information is absolutely aw inspiring. This book is a must buy, behind the scenes look at what might have actually transpired in the Gulf War.
Rating:  Summary: Frederick Forsyths best novel yet! Review: The Fist of God starts at a breakneck pace and doesn't cease to the final word. Never has the author produced such a complex plot and action packed events.
Rating:  Summary: The Best! Review: This book is one of the best books I've ever read. Unlike "Executive Orders", which was pretty boring to me, "The Fist of God" is a real page-turner! It's worth buying it!!!
Rating:  Summary: The Gulf War Explained Review: Like 'The Day of the Jackal' you already know the ending, but it doesn't matter. In this there is a, quite frankly, very frightening explanation given for Saddam Hussein's confidence throughout the Gulf War. You hope that it's fiction but you just don't know thanks to Forsyth's masterful blending of fact and fiction, back room drama and CNN news, personal stories and sweeping commentaries. There is his usual admiration for Mossad (the Israeli secret service) shining through, and in his explanations of various facets of all the secret services involved there is always the ring of truth (unlike Tom Clancy who reads like he read it in 'Time', Forsyth reads like he was actually there). It's not the destination that's important, it's the journey.
Rating:  Summary: Superior Review: Extremely readable, broad in scope, yet highly believable and detailed. Really hated getting delayed while reading this work by things like work and meals. I thought this was as good if not better than "Jackal" and was on the same scale as Executive Orders. If you have ever enjoyed Clancy or Day of the Jackal, this one is a must.
Rating:  Summary: Well worth it Review: Like almost all of Frederick Forsyth's book, it's worth the time. I've read all of his, and this is one I purchased a second time because it was so good.I keep looking for more of his books, but I think I've run out.
