Justin is ahead of me here, I have read parts of the new novel by Al Noteman but not as much as Justin it seems. I need a Kindle to down load the rest of this great story!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Compelling and Authentic Adventure Tale!, 25 Jun 2012

Justin Phillips (Cape Town, Western Cape South Africa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stolen Time (1) (Kindle Edition)
As a citizen of Cape Town, a yachtsman, and someone who lived through the era of this tale, it really is a case of a "thriller in my own backyard". Many of the characters are familiar to me, either by inference or directly. The context of the military aspects, the sailing, the alluvial West Coast diamond mines and the environment of Cape town are very very authentic - even the news of those days. Africa, including South Africa, has always been a good place to set a novel of adventure, risk and lust. The dark side of the then Nationalist Government is very well exploited, also the dodgy and evil characters that were known to be around in those times. South America and the South atlantic is a place of equal intrigue - and the novel does well to bring these aspects to life in such an authentic way. The tale is similar in style to a Wilbur Smith novel and is quite compelling, but for me it is the authentic reality of this environment that makes it fascinating, in a larger than life kind of way. A great adventure yarn! Try this link to buy and down load the book right now.
