Title: Flaccid Prose
Review: This book has all the excitement of a Wikipedia entry. I suspect most of the factual information (about 40% of the narrative) was taken from Wikipedia.The plot is pathetically thin. The characters are cartoonish beyond belief:The evil and fanatical Jihadist and the "good" British agent matching (all-too slow) wits.The Brit speaks no Pashto, but travels thru' Afghanistan and half around world impersonating Afghan war-lord! No one discovers he speaks no native Afghan language!Next installment: Black CIA agent who speaks no Russian tricks Russian FSB by impersonating a defected Russian spy. With this author all is possible.
