İlkini çok beğendim. Bu, üstesinden gelmek için bir kabadaydı ve kahramanlar günü kurtarmak için çok az şey yaptı. Çoğunlukla bir sürü aptalca hata yap.
A pleasant enough read but, as only the third Alistair Maclean novel I've read, my least favourite of the three. There is plenty of mystery in the story since the characters' thoughts, even that of the protagonist, Harlow, are never written - only their actions - so we are left to guess at their intentions. But therein lies the problem. Empathy comes before sympathy. How can we care what happens if we are not sympathetic towards the characters, and how can we be sympathetic if we do not know what they are thinking? In this respect it is saved somewhat by the dialogue between Harlow and the love interest, Mary McAlpine. Their words to each other are almost the only insight into the true character of Harlow, and it is through their exchanges that one can develop a vested interest in the outcome of the story. I enjoyed The Way to Dusty Death, but I much preferred Caravan to Vaccares, I hope the rest of Maclean's novels are more like that one.

Beaucoup aimé cette suite même si j'ai pas trop accroché au perso de Paige et ça risque de me poser problème pour le 3ème tome :s
I really enjoyed getting a glimpse into the mind of one of my favorite writers and he had a lot of good things to say to aspiring writers about the years of work and encouragement needed as well as the urge most successful writers have to get things out of their head and on paper.
This book touches on many traditional aspects of yogic practice. If you want to know more about the cleansing rituals and fasting, this is a good book to accompany you on a path with an experienced teacher.
