More jackals -- and better than The Odessa File -- the terrain this time is a godforsaken little kingdom of nothing called Zangaro on the coast of West Africa now put on the map for one James Manson of Manson Consolidated Mining Company Ltd. by a mineral deposit thought to be tin, later revealed as platinum. There seem to be only two kinds of people in the world, at any rate Forsyth's, namely predators and grazers; Manson is one of the former but so is the mercenary Cat Shannon from Ulster whom he hires to take over the republic of Zangaro and dispose of its Papa Doc president. Commando style. El mundo de los mercenarios constituye el telón de fondo de esta gran obra de Frederick Forsyth. En primer plano, una anécdota de trepidante acción descubre algunos aspectos siniestros y poco conocidos de ciertas actividades: minería, altas finanzas, operaciones bancarias y el mundo de los traficantes de armas. De París a Ostende y Marsella, donde son reclutados los mercenarios; de Berna a Brujas, donde se montan las operaciones financieras; y de Alemania a Italia, Grecia y Yugoslavia, donde se compran las armas; Forsyth devela, en un viaje literario apasionante, un mundo en el que no sólo las armas, sino quienes las disparan, se venden al mejor postor.

One of the reviewers said that book is slow and action consists of only last chapter - that is correct. Forsyth's books are as a matter a fact very detailed shows that confirm that actual violence, strike of assassins knife in the dark, silenced gunshot or all-out bombardment are either side-shows or culminations of days if not months of very careful planning and maneuvering. Without logistics, planning, asset acquirement there would be no actual action to execute in the first place.
Excellent book, highly recommended to anyone enjoying spy and mercenary literature. ( )
