Historia
Action thriller by the classic adventure writer set in Africa. It is no ordinary juggernaut. Longer than a football pitch, weighing 550 tons and moving at just five miles per hour, its job - and that of troubleshooter Neil Mannix - is to move a giant transformer across an oil-rich African state. But when Nyala erupts in civil war, Mannix’s juggernaut is at the centre of the conflict - a target of ambush and threat, with no way to run and nowhere to hide....

Historia
Here is the kind of authentically detailed epic novel that has become Louis L’Amour’s hallmark. It is the compelling story of US Air Force major Joe Mack, a man born out of time. When his experimental aircraft is forced down in Russia and he escapes a Soviet prison camp, he must call upon the ancient skills of his Indian forebears to survive the vast Siberian wilderness.

The start of the book is really the END
Revisado: 05-31-18
What would happen if an American Indian air force officer was force down in Russia. That is the bases of the story, about an American Indian who was also a pilot of a secret U.S.A.F. fighter aircraft is taken prisoner by the Russians and how he manages to escape the massive search for him.
How the Russin general that causes his crash tries to recapture the U.S.A.F. pilot to save his own position and all the people that become involved in the recapture effort.
The first few pages don't really make sense until the end of the book.

Historia
From the author of the classic mysteries starring the irrepressible CIA spy, Mrs. Pollifax, comes a delightfully different mystery with a most unholy twist. Filled with all the hilarious surprises and good old-fashioned suspense that her fans have come to love, A Nun in the Closet is the story of two high-spirited nuns who accidentally stumble into a dangerous plot involving ghosts, gangsters, and Protestants.

Two nuns take on the MOB and the MOB loses
Revisado: 03-25-18
Would you consider the audio edition of A Nun in the Closet to be better than the print version?
The audio book allows you to sit back and close your eyes and think about what is happening, and laugh as the reader weave the story from start to finish. You can smile and laugh at the different things that happen and relax as the nuns go from one adventure to another.
What other book might you compare A Nun in the Closet to and why?
For adventure, the entire Dorthy Gilman series leaves you with chuckles and smiles at the different things that happen, it is hard to chose just one.
Once you start with the Mrs. Polifax books or audio books, you will be laughing at what seems to happen in each book, at least I do.
What does Roslyn Alexander bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
If you are a poor reader like I am, then you would enjoy the fact that someone else is reading and bringing life to the words in the book. I could not put the expressions to the charters that the Roslyn Alexander does, and while I have read the book, it is more relaxing to have someone else read the book.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
I don't know, I have seen the first book that Dorthy Gilman had made in to a movie but it didn't seem to have the same impact on me as reading or listening to the book made. Of course I have read or listened to all of her books several times so I was thinking about what was NOT in the movie.
Any additional comments?
VERY DELIGHTFUL BOOKS THAT I HAVE READ AND REREAD OVER THE YEARS
