I enjoyed this, it was a light read on the whole with a predictable story. I got a bit lost with all the detail on the planes which was obviously meticulously researched, I would have preferred a little more time spent on fleshing out the characters. It was nice to read about the war from the Danish perspective and the escape had me on the edge of my seat. Not Follett’s best but a great story nonetheless. Vuelo final Ken Follett Publicado: 2002 | 400 páginas Novela Aventuras Bélico Histórico Intriga La acción transcurre al comienzo de la Segunda Guerra Mundial: ante la impunidad con que la aviación alemana derriba uno tras otro los bombarderos de la RAF, el servicio de inteligencia británico sospecha que el enemigo ha desarrollado un nuevo sistema de radar. Mientras tanto, un joven danés que se ha desviado de su ruta habitual descubre algo sorprendente entre los farallones de la isla de Fano, ocupada por los nazis. Ignora que en Copenhague el detective colaboracionista Flemming está urdiendo un plan para descubrir a los informadores de los aliados en el que muy pronto habrá de verse implicado… Amistad, amor, emociones aseguradas y grandes dosis de acción. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:Ken Follett and the intrigue of World War IIâ??"a winning formula" (Entertainment Weekly) if ever there was one. With his riveting prose and unerring instinct for suspense, the #1 New York Times bestselling author takes to the skies over Europe during the early days of the war in a most extraordinary novel. . . . It is June 1941, and the war is not going well for England. Somehow, the Germans are anticipating the RAF's flight paths and shooting down British bombers with impunity. Meanwhile, across the North Sea, eighteen-year-old Harald Olufsen takes a shortcut on the German-occupied Danish island of Sande and discovers an astonishing sight. He doesn't know what it is, but he knows he must tell someone. And when he learns the truth, it will fall upon him to deliver word to Englandâ??except that he has no way to get there. He has only an old derelict Hornet Moth biplane rusting away in a ruined churchâ??a plane so decrepit that it is unlikely to ever get off the ground . . . even if Harald knew how to fly it. Look out for Ken's newest book, A Column of Fire, available now. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
