Product Description

Product Description

A blistering alien military action thriller. The X Files meets Inglorious Bastards.

On the day Adolf Hitler commits suicide a young concentration camp inmate, Uriel Golan, is marched towards his death.

Two days later he leaves the Bay of Neustadt on the SS Cap Arcona - a cruise ship which will be deliberately sailed into an allied air attack to silence all the holocaust survivors aboard.

Uriel miraculously survives the attack -- and believes he survived for a reason.

That reason is revealed to him seventeen years later when voices from the past charge him with a mission.

Uriel must hunt down the remaining Nazi war criminals hiding from justice - because only he knows the real agenda behind the terror campaign they inflicted on his people.

And in a week of carnage, Uriel unlocks secrets that have remained hidden for millions of years.

In this wonderfully inventive novella, combining a sense of adventure with a sense of humour, Stewart King reinvents classic Nazi-hunting thrillers such as The Boys From Brazil and The Odessa File - and gives the genre a dynamic modern twist.

"Stewart King is a modern master of glorious pulp adventures. The Arcona Covenant sneaks up behind you, garrottes you with razor wire and then leaves you in a dumpster waiting for part two." - Guy Adams - Author of 'Sherlock Holmes: The Army of Doctor Moreau',' 'Torchwood:The House That Jack Built' and 'Kronos.'

"A fantastic story" - Matt Lynn, author of the best-selling Death Force thrillers.

"The Arcona Covenant packs a heck of a punch" - Tom Kasey, best-selling author of Trade-Off.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nazi's and Aliens.. 21 Aug 2012
By Chris
The premise of this fun novella - that the Nazis were basically a bunch of evil aliens - may be a little far-fetched but the story is entertaining because, rather than in spite, of that. Right from the opening scene where the hero narrowly escapes one of the final horrors of WWII the atmosphere among the Jewish Nazi-hunters of the early 70s is very well-drawn, and the twist in the story is cleverly executed. If you've fot an hour to spare and want something diverting (and despite the ending most of the book reads like a classic thriller) then Ancona Covenant is worth a try.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pacy and Original 16 Aug 2012
By Nelson
The Arcona Covenant is loosely based on some of the classic Nazi-hunting thrillers that were popular in the 1970s but takes it in some unexpected directions. A Jewish survivor of the Holocaust reappears in France a quarter of a century later tracking down some of the monsters of the Nazi regime, and giving them their just desserts. The hunt is well depicted and so is the character of the main protagonist. But then it turns out the Nazis were not quite what he expected - the represented a whole different kind of evil. By being a novella as opposed to novel the chase aspect of book makes for even pacier reading. A surprise twist at the end makes this an orginal read too (you would't believe ending even if I spoiled it for you now).

5.0 out of 5 stars Out of this world.... 16 Aug 2012
By Rachel
I downloaded this not really knowing what to expect (and still didn't expect surprise ending when reading it). The Nazis are always good fodder for a detective story, and in France in the early 70s there were a few still alive to be tracked down. The hero starts to eliminate them one by one on a personal crusade of vengeance. But then the ex-Nazis start to fight back in unepected ways. If you have window of an hour and an open mind of something different in regards to a thriller then The Arcona Covenant is definitely worth a punt.
