5.0 out of 5 stars Blown away!, 13 Nov 2003
By A Customer
Having got the book I wasn't really sure it was going to be my kind of read. Boy was I wrong! The characterisation of Pierre, as a tough yet flawed hero working against the clock to rescue not only his wife, but the world is fabulous and fast-paced. You end up feeling for Pierre, his motives and reasoning as this cynical yet strong personality get more explained as you read further into the book. The technical know-how, especially when it comes to the viruses is not too complex so it's understandable. Mordon is this dreary and bleak place, and the reader really does get a feel of it as being so, I won't say any more - but this they don't write them as they used to! This is excellant book, with a great plot and brilliant characterisation, it doesn't feel dated - but instead it transports you into a secret and dangereous world. Buy this book, trust me you won't be dissapointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars classic stuff!, 17 May 2004
i read this book four times-once recently- and boy since reading this book this book for the first time at the age of 14, i still think its jaw droppingly riveting, and he shows how other thriller writers should pen a book. From the first chapter to the last you will feel your hands gripping the armchair and your pulse will throb triple in speed.Trust me!!it just comes to show you dont need 500 pages(ala clancy) or filthy language or nude scenes to keep a book afloat, and boy doesnt mr maclean keeps this one afloat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Synopsis, 29 Aug 2007
This review is from: The Satan Bug (Paperback)
Five strands of high-voltage wire, 200 yards of bare ground and double barbed wire fences patrolled by armed guards with dogs separated Mordon Research Centre from the outside world. Yet behind the locked doors of E block, a scientist lay dead, and a new toxin of terrifying power had vanished.

Put simply one of the best novels ever written.
