Publisher's Summary:
The man selected to plan and carry out the sack of Zangaro is Cat Shannon, a 33-year-old Anglo-Irishman from Nigeria. If the goal is clear, the means are not, for there are no up-to-date manuals on overthrowing governments by force. By the time he has set forth this sinister venture in all its ramifications, Frederick Forsyth has fashioned that manual and given us a classic of terror and enthrallment.

Members Reviews:
Another fantastic Forsyth experience
Outstanding audiobook. I truly enjoyed it. The characters were wonderful and as usual the ending has a twist. The plot starts a little slow, and the ending is a little sad, but I loved it. I hope he continues to publish and audible continues to carry his work. I disagree with the other review, I thought the narration was well done. The same narrator has done some of his other work which I also enjoyed. Overall, I think if you like his other stuff you will enjoy this.

Definitely not Forsyth's Best
This is my 11th Forsyth novel. Before I proceed, let me say that I would recommend virtually every one of Forsyth's books. He is a GREAT author - Day of the Jackal and The Fourth Protocol are two of the best suspense/espionage novels written. His short stories in "The Veteran" and "No Comebacks" are also fantastic.
However, this is, without question, the least of all of Forsyth's novels. I believe that the reason is simple - probably 60% of hte book revolves around the mundane purchase of illegal arms, hiring of mercenaries and sailors, and making sailing arrangements. Not too exciting.
While there are a few undercurrents (including an assassination attempt), this book just didn't hold my interest like the others.
I must say that I don't recoomend this book, however, I must also say that this is the ONLY Forstyh book that I wouldn't recommend. There are other great Forsyth books on Audible (The Avenger, No Comebacks, The Day of the Jackal and The Afghan) - and I highly reccommend them all. But unless you're a diehard Forsyth fan and want to read everything he's written, you may want to pass on this one.

Plausible and detailed
Mr. Forsyth has nailed it again. The level of detail and planning was perfect. Leaving no questions unanswered when the story was done. Give the narrator a chance. His voice and dialect are very fitting for the book.

One of Forsyth's Best
In my opinion, one of his top three works. Outstanding in every respect. Forsyth's description of the African brush wars in the 60's and early 70's is spot on.

Great plot, great book
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
This is the blue print for a real Coup d'état, and should be taken very seriously.
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Plot is intriguing paced well and clear.
What about Frederick Davidsons performance did you like?
No super solders in this Novel, just an account of what real fighting men, or mercenaries would be like.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Towards the end you can't put this down...you have to finish it.
