Wild Justice, nicely read by Steven Pacey, involves Col. Peter Stride, who leads an elite force in an assault on a hijacked airliner in an attempt to free endangered hostages. Though the raid succeeds, Stride is fired for not fully following orders. Free from his military connection, he is then in a position to fight terrorism and conspiracy independently. A good story with lots of twists and treacheries. Together or separately, these three books are fine short adventures; each tale is about one-sixth the length of its original novel and loses an awful lot in the abridging. A recommendation: get these audios if you must for patrons in a hurry, but point them to an unabridged version if you can. - Cliff Glaviano, Bowling Green State Univ. Libs., OH

Wilbur Smith's stories of Africa are widely known for their historical significance, larger than life characters, and sweeping scenarios. The Angels Weep takes readers to Rhodesia--from the days of Cecil Rhodes to the formation of Zimbabwe in the late 1970s. Reader Stephen Thorne presents more than voices for the scores of characters drawn from diverse cultures and economic backgrounds; he lays open the strife of a land torn apart by civil war and racial hatred. He seems to be these people, projecting their passions, schemes, and sometimes ruthless behavior with a seeming sixth sense for who and where they are. This is great work delivered with effortless ease. T.J.M. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine--
