5.0 out of 5 stars The Lotus and the Wind, 20 Jun 2003
By A H MURPHY (Abingdon, Oxon United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed this book - it was a 'ripping yarn' of the type that one associates with John Buchan, but with a much more complex hero than the reassuringly stolid Richard Hannay. Robin Savage is forced to go into intelligence work when he is falsely accused of cowardice, and becomes embroiled in the 'Great Game' - the struggle between Russia and Great Britain over control of India. He uncovers a plot by two Russian agents - again both of them very interesting characters - to invade India through Afghanistan, and risks his life on numerous occasions. The name of the book refers to his need to choose between domestic life and security (represented by the lotus of the title) and the more exciting and solitary life of espionage and exploration. The love interest is provided by Anne, his wife, who initially supports him in all his endeavours and eventually is forced to accept that she cannot hold him. A great adventure story with a very interesting lvoe story woven into it - highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A master of storytelling, 21 Oct 2009
By C. Hudson "blotty" (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
John Masters has a way with words, and a wonderful memory for the unusual, amusing, or sad incidents he has witnessed or been told of in his army career. He starts his story as a bit of a know all, but soon has his rough edges ground down by the people he meets, both in England and in India. A thoroughly engrossing book, especially if you have Indian or army connections.

1.0 out of 5 stars How do I tell Amazon that their synopsis is illiterate?, 23 Oct 2007
By C. Foster Taylor - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The synopsis to this book talks about "servents" and "flare", when it means "flair". I don't know how one can inform Amazon of this and ask that the errors be corrected other than by writing a review.
