Hammond Innes's best - By: A. Cioccarelli, 14 Dec 2002
This is my favourite thriller from Hammond Innes, an adventure writer right up there with the likes of Alistair MacLean & a whole lot better than the current crop of writers led by the totallly unimaginative Tom Clancey. This is not literature but Hammond Innes never meant it to be, it is however a great example a adventure fiction. This is the book that reallly got me interested in reading when I was young & I will never forget it for that. This particular story is set in Naples just after WWII when mount Vesuvius is about to erupt, & does erupt in the climax of the book. It is a story that takes you back to the seemingly glamourous time of 1950s Europe. Hammond Innes puts together a tightly written & constantly entertaining story about a man with his own demons who fights them & the bad guys! A thoroughly entertaining read.
