REVIEWS Nostalgia - (Alan Harman on 25 July 2008) This is a rollicking great adventure back in the days when Britain ruled the world and men were men and women were women and you could still tell the difference. The author obviously knows his stuff and the aviation sequences hark back to a time when flying was still an adventure that mass tourism had not discovered. Timar keeps the story moving and every page makes you want to meet Laura, sooner rather than later. What I want to know is, when will the movie be made. The story would be perfect for the silver screen.
HONEST - (Adam Ravenstein on 10 August 2008) Air Mogadishu is an enlightening story for people who keep apologizing for everything. If God wanted us to be perfect, He would not have created us the way we are. Laura’s honest promiscuity is not a sin! If she were a man, she would be revered as a macho he-man. However, since she is a woman, some hypocrites might call her a slut. The author’s insight into one’s personal relationship with the Creator is refreshing, modern, and right on the money. Five stars. |
