Goliath; Richard Turner




 
Title: Goliath

Author: Richard Turner 

Reviewed by: Bhavana 

The entire story revolves around the airship Goliath that had gone up in flames in the year 1931 when it was still in flight over the Sahara Desert. 
In the present time, History Professor Ms. Jennifer Mark has been abducted. Rayn Mitchell Former U S Army Ranger Captain, who is in love with her, considers it his mission to rescue her. His friends join him in his pursuit. In the process of rescuing his sweetheart. Rayn and his team encounter bigger problems. It becomes a question of National security... 

It's a military based novel. The author will take the readers from the heavy traffic streets, to the snow laden grounds, to the steaming hot deserts and to the deep waters of the ocean. There is a brewing tension among the power hungry people in Russia.  The author has done a good research on the ammunition used by the military personnel.   But a full form of some of the abbreviations used in many places would have been helpful... There is a threat of the nuclear bombs to be detonated. The reader will find a tinge of humor... The novel has its surprises, romance, conspiracy, treason, and A detailed description of the action and many other episodes. I managed to skip a lot of the action as to not to miss out on the story. The story portrayed a great example of true friendship, courage and nationalism. It was a medium paced novel and quite a page turner.

Rating: 3 on 5
