About this listen

An astonishing discovery is made in the remote African republic of Zangaro, one which could change the course of a nation's history forever. But such a discovery cannot be kept secret for long and Sir James Manson will stop at nothing to protect this find. A ruthless and bloody-minded tycoon, Manson immediately hires an army of mercenaries and with this deadly crew behind him he sets out to topple the government and replace its dictator with a puppet president. But news of the discovery has reached Russia – and suddenly Manson finds he no longer makes the rules in this power game. A game in which win or lose means life or death.

A war with heart, about all the right boxes ticked, and presented in a great style. A horrible war has just taken place, yet along with pain and horror, I lay this book down with a pleasant taste in my mouth.

Superb ! Absolutely Superb

The action is quite concentrated towards last 15 to 20% which is a little surprising though the build up and logistics are in themselves interesting but it may not be what the reader anticipates

It’s a little outdated as the amounts and costs quotes are horribly outdated by modern standards

Slow Burn

narration crystal clear and suitably dramatic. plot and character development rich and satisfying. poignant ending with a very satisfying twist.

most of all the intricate detail and methodology described in mounting a military coup by mercenaries and logistics experts was totally absorbing.

Forsyth rules!

Excellent!

The story is gripping and relevant, with good historical and political background. I’ve read this book years ago and listening rediscovered it for me. Forsyth at his best. David Rintoul is an exceptional narrator with rare voice acting skills and performance.

The Dogs of War never tire
