5.0étoiles sur 5 brilliant! Forsyth's best book, Jui 3 2004
This review is from: The Fist of God (Mass Market Paperback)
Fist of God is Forsyth's best (and longest) novel. Based on the first Gulf War, it is an intriguing blend of actual events and personalities with great storytelling. The military detail rivals that of Tom Clancy's better technothrillers, and the political and espionage coverage is vintage Forsyth. In Fist of God, he weaves agents from the SAS, SIS, CIA, Mossad, and several Iraqi branches in the runup to the Coalition invasion and its short duration. Nice blend of plot, detail, suspense, and character development across the board. Also includes prescient remarks about human intelligence in what Forsyth calls "A Final Note." Written in 1994, it was ahead of its time regarding WMD, etc.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Top Class !!, Fév 13 2004

This review is from: The Fist of God (Mass Market Paperback)
Frederick Forsyth's research has always been awe-inspiring, but this novel exceeds all expectations.

Peopled with vivid characters, brilliantly displaying Forsyth's incomparable, knowledge of intelligence operations and tradecraft, moving back and forth between Washington and London, Baghdad and Kuwait, desert vastnesses and city bazaars, this breathtaking novel is an utterly convincing story of what may
actually have happened behind the headlines.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Watch the HBO Movie Along With this Novel For Full Effect.., Sep 30 2003
Par Un client
This review is from: The Fist of God (Mass Market Paperback)
One of my favorite stories, and one of my favorite all time novels by an author I had been introduced to with this book. Forsyth writes with a passionate 'between the lines' feeling to this riveting true story, which relates much to the politics of the world's second Gulf War in 2003. In 1994 director Robert Young, inspired by Forsyth's book wrote and directed a summary-like script to the story in the form of HBO's original docudrama 'Doomsday Gun'. Whereas Forsyth's novel begins with a third-person account of the assassination of Dr. Gerald Bull, HBO's film turns the story towards the life and death of Dr. Bull. 'The Fist of God' may read like stereo instructions towards the body of explanation; (The Iraq weapons program, the violation(s) of international weapons embargo laws), watching the film first can make reading Forsyth's version so much more intriguing. Parts in the film played by actors Michael Kitchen, Francesca Annis and Marianne Dennicourt are abolished, for the book will make you see the entire story for what it was outside of the Space Research Corporation and Dr. Bull's massive (put poorly constructed) weapon. However Forsyth does'nt make an attempt to swing left of that aspect, 'The Fist of God' is simply a more detailed and much more credible source for information on what continues to be a growing mystery within the US and British governments...and of course Iraq.
