Andy McNab’s latest book, Crossfire, is shortly to be released. In fact, it will be available from November 3, 2007, and is one book I am eagerly anticipating (along with many other people, I’m sure).

Crossfire places the stories hero, Nick Stone, in Basra (Iraq) as bodyguard for a TV crew. It’s dangerous times and during an insurgent attack Nick, the man hired to protect people, is the one saved by a reporter. Mysteriously, though, the reporter disappears shortly after the attack and curiously Nick’s old masters, the intelligence service, ask Nick to find him. What interest could SIS have in a reporter?

The search leads Stone to travel to several countries and finally ending up in Kabul. This is where things take a bad turn and Nick suddenly becomes the hunted. Will Stone survive, or will he die in the Crossfire?

Like every book Andy McNab writes, it is sure to be a page-turner and perhaps one I should leave for a day off work as I know I won’t be able to put it down until I’ve reach the end. Fortunately, it’s also currently available for half-price at Amazon - that’s right, £9.49 for the hardback, which is a bargain when compared to waiting several months for the paperback copy (which will be released in June 2008).

Another work of genius from Andy McNab DCM MM. Not only is he a true English hero and perhaps the most famous SAS member ever, but he is also one of the best English authors of the past few hundred years. He’s personally my favourite author of all time, but anyway … on to his latest book in the Nick Stone series:

Nick’s adventure this time starts out in sunny Australia … he’s finally left behind his life as a deniable operator and living a happy life, for once. He’s met a lovely German girl and it seems life is no longer full of the twists and turns it used to be … until he visits an old friend.
