Brilliant read 15 Feb 2006
Format:Paperback
Have been reading military fact and fiction for a few years, and have to say, this guy realy puts together a readable believable story, and gets you hooked from page one, not too much military jargon to baffle, but enough to let you know he knows whta hes talking about,
great read and will definatly buy more from this guy

brill as ever 31 Mar 2006
Format:Paperback
I think Duncan Falconer has to be a better writer than Andy McNab. When you read one of Duncan's books, you know you are in for a good and exciting read. And he hasn't dissappointed with Hijack. It's always difficult to put his books down.

Format:Paperback
Could not put it down. Characters were unique, fascinating, sympathetic and the story booms along at a great pace. Brilliant the way he describes real events, sensitive political and military subjects without taking sides. And almost unnerving how he creates the most dangerous people with attractive and almost forgiving qualities, a technique he used in his last book, The Hostage. Looking forward to the next one. Keep it up, Falconer!

Duncan Falconer writes so well, and after reading a number of his novels I'm now convinced that 'consistancy' must be his middle name. Read more

Very good read
Good compelling reading, I was unsure at first as it wasn't really my type of book. It was very well written & the author obviously knew his stuff!

Well worth a read.
