Product Description

From AudioFile

An unusual twist is added to the "airplane in peril" plot. A high-altitude supersonic jumbo jet has been hit by a drone missile; oxygen deprivation kills some but leaves most passengers brain-damaged zombies. Five passengers and flight attendants escape injury and must land the plane. The authors defeat predictability by mixing in the military and the airline company: Both want this embarrassing problem to vanish without a trace. David Dukes establishes individual vocal personalities, bringing to the narration the fear and tension of those fighting to save the plane, as well as those desperate to destroy it. Especially chilling is his expression of the unintelligible grunts and moans of the injured passengers who are milling through the plane, terrified. Expect a knotted stomach throughout this thriller. M.A.M. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.


Ingram

An airliner on a routine flight from San Francisco to Tokyo is struck by a U.S. Navy missile. Because of the sudden change in cabin pressure, all but five people on board are either dead, comatose, or raving mad. As Flight 52 becomes the ultimate test of survival, onboard horrors begin to mount up. In addition, the airline, the insurance company, and the Navy are desperate to cover up the mishap--no matter what the cost. LG selection. BOMC alternate selection. Ads in "People". --This text refers to an alternate Mass Market Paperback edition.

5.0étoiles sur 5 airport meets night of the living dead starring James Bond, Avril 2 2009
This review is from: Mayday (Mass Market Paperback)
This book covers everything from military wrong doing, Government cover-up, animal instinct with a large serving of action.
A supersonic passenger jet in distress that everyone but family members wish would crash, but with the heroics of a few passengers they attempt to save the airliner and figure out who is behind the sabotage and save the passengers.
Nelson Demille has been a favorite author of mine for quite some time, but by hooking up with Thomas Block they have created a book that fans of Tom Clancy, David Hagberg and Robert Mccammon will enjoy , with a different spin on the passenger aircraft in distress , Nelson and Thomas blind side you with a unique story line and keep you wanting more.

5.0étoiles sur 5 AN EDGE OF YOUR SEAT THRILLER..., Mars 2 2009
Par Lawyeraau (Balmoral Castle) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Mayday (Mass Market Paperback)
This is an exciting, air disaster yarn, spun by best-selling author, Nelson DeMille, and his long time friend, Thomas block, a commercial airline pilot and author of aviation adventure novels. Originally published in 1979, becoming a best-seller, it was updated in the 1990s to reflect changes in politics and technology and republished. I am very glad that it was, as it is a page turning tale of terror and suspense that takes place aboard a jumbo passenger jet.

When a missile goes wrong and strikes an airborne jet filled with passengers on their way to Tokyo, the unimaginable happens. With a cockpit occupied by dead or crippled crew members, a few survivors band together to do what they know they must do: land the plane. In their struggle to do so, they must battle the horror within the plane, as well as other forces that conspire against their success.

Those who like to read disaster novels, adventure stories, and novels of sheer suspense will, undoubtedly, find much to enjoy in this gripping tale. Although entirely plot driven with little character development, it is an edge of your seat thriller that will keep the reader riveted to the pages of the book until the very last one is turned.

5.0étoiles sur 5 FOR SOMEONE WHO NEVER READS A BOOK ALL THE WAY THROUGH, Oct. 15 2003
Par Un client
This review is from: Mayday (Mass Market Paperback)
This book had me from the first page i read. I am the type of person who likes the thought that im actually reading a book. Then , after about 50 pages i put it down for ever. well not with this book. If you are the type of person who gets bored with books or doesnt like reading this is the book for you. This novel would not let me put it down. The plot is constantly changing and keeping me interested until the last page. I highly reccomend this to everyone.
