A transport plane carrying an important Taliban detainee for interrogation is shot down in a blizzard over the Hindu Kush. The storm makes rescue impossible, and for two people -navigator Michael Parson and a woman Army interpreter, Sergeant Golda battle for survival begins across some of the most forbidding terrain on earth against not only the hazards of nature, but the treacheries of man: the Taliban stalking them; the villagers of unknown loyalties; and the prisoner who would very much like the three of them to be caught.

Blatantly racist
Revisado: 09-23-20
It is always amazing to probe the mind of the authors writing this kind of garbage which demonizes an entire religion and people. It is shameful that this man actually wore this countries great uniform. As a veteran myself I feel ashamed at the use of words chosen by this ignorant author. Likely for the consumption of fellow supremacists Shocking

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 49
In their book Drive Nacho Drive, Brad and Sheena Van Orden traded the American Dream for the open road, and set off in their temperamental 1984 VW van named "Nacho." After 13 months of humorous and sometimes demoralizing misadventures along the Pan-American Highway, our intrepid subjects eventually arrived at the southernmost town in the world in Tierra del Fuego.

Great Story but Very Condescending
Revisado: 12-02-17
Is there anything you would change about this book?
The overall book was good however it was amazing how the authors described and denigrated the country of 1 billion people, it felt as if everyone was a beggar there living on a pile of trash. The amazing mention of authors "white faces" and how everyone just looked at them and waiting for an opportunity to rape his wife.
Seemed like the author could not get enough of his white greatness in midst of "brown and dark savages" Shame on them!
What aspect of Brad Van Orden and Sheena Van Orden ’s performance would you have changed?
Their sense of white superiority and looking down on poor people
Did 927 Days of Summer inspire you to do anything?
yes, respect cultures that one travels in and not make them sound like sub human. Would any brown people traveling in USA be welcomed in peoples houses as they were for months on end during their travels. It was embarrassing how they derided the people of Indian subcontinent . To clarify, I am not from India
Any additional comments?
I was planning to buy their other book but will not

A breakneck race against time…and an implacable enemy. An anonymous young woman murdered in a run-down hotel, all identifying characteristics dissolved by acid. A father publicly beheaded in the blistering heat of a Saudi Arabian public square. A notorious Syrian biotech expert found eyeless in a Damascus junkyard. Smoldering human remains on a remote mountainside in Afghanistan. A flawless plot to commit an appalling crime against humanity. One path links them all, and only one man can make the journey. Pilgrim.

Any additional comments?
The authors bias against Muslims and Islam is abhorrent. He seems to think himself an authority on Islam and its values. For example when the protagonist sits in a cab there is a comment about Muslims in general that they all agree with stoning women for adultery. This goes on to show how misinformed and bigoted he is.
