from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $10.20
Customer Review:
I've read and own quite a lot of Furst books and this one was my favorite. I was truly captivated by the story and had a hard time putting the book down. A good story coupled with real history make this book a winner.

from William Morrow
Price: $17.13
Customer Review:
There is one great flight scene, where we (the good guys) engage two MiG fighters. It is a terrific scene, early in the book; after that, just put the book down. What follows are absurd - and unnecessary - numbers of double entendres and sexual innuendo; trysts galore; a fairly weak plot; &... more info
