Product Description

Product Description

It is longer than a football pitch, weighs 550 tons, and moves at an average of five miles per hour. Its job - and that of company trouble-shooter, Neil Mannix - is to move a giant transformer across Nyala, an oil-rich African state. When Nyala erupts into civil war, Mannix finds himself, and the juggernaut, at the centre of the conflict. Can Mannix deliver the transformer to its destination or will warring factions finally halt its progress and destroy it?


About the Author

Desmond Bagley was born in 1923, in Kendal, a rural town in England's scenic Lake District. He left school aged fourteen and worked for a number of years in the aircraft industry before embarking on an adventure - travelling to South Africa by road and supporting himself along the way by working in gold and asbestos mines. Bagley spent the Fifties in South Africa, working as a freelance journalist and critic, before moving to Italy with his wife, Margaret, and then to Guernsey.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as his usual work., 23 Sep 2009
This review is from: Juggernaut (Paperback)
Desmond Bagley's "Juggernaut", was forgettable. I have really liked some of his thrillers in the past, but despite its solid premise of driving an oversized rig through an African country breaking out into civil war promises a lot, it fails to deliver in my eyes. This was his final novel, completed by his family after his death, and I suspect it would have seen more editing and improvements had he been there to do the job himself.
