Reviews

[Maria]

The first two books Ultimatum and Exxoneration became bestsellers in Canada in the early 1970s when they were published. The author, even that long ago, had a clear insight of the Americans political arrogance towards their neighbour and his fictional works, if read now in 2026 will make one wonder if he had time traveled and was speaking about the present president of the USA. Laugh out loud !
The third book is Periscope Red and it's about the forever enmity between Israel and Palestinians. I gave up on it as digesting anything about Israel these days make me sick to my very core.
