It is a great thriller, written by a person who knows Egypt very well. Main charters are well defined and the plot is intriguing. The book challenges the reader and shows how all things are interconnected and what happens when different interests collide.

A fast moving and entertaining thriller that doesn't insult the intelligence; it evinces a real knowledge of the culture, milieu and psychology of its subject matter and characters. A knowledge grounded in a genuine love and sympathy for the true hero of this novel - Egypt."

An insightful adventure...

GOG book is an extremely entertaining reading adventure. Scenes and characters are so vivid that you sometime forget it is a fiction and rather start thinking you have become one of the characters thrown into the midst of action…

The book offers an opportunity to look behind the doors, meet people, and relive situations that in ordinary life would have remained out of reach.

As story unfolds and brings you closer to the truth, you realise how complex and controversial the truth can actually be, especially when cultural and personal interests clash…

It is a real gem, a controversial one!

GOG offers a gripping premise about the end of times, starting with a flood – unleashed by nature or by man, nobody knows. And the story goes on from there – all the way through an intricate web of corruption that embroils a powerless British aid worker in an Egyptian conspiracy. Written by a journalist, the book teems with well-researched, well-timed references to current events and world politics. It falters, however, on the narration. While the plot tantalizes the reader and the newsy facts enrich the story, the narration hops abruptly from one character to another. The lack of a central perspective and the constant changes in viewpoints slow down the action, leaving the reader wishing for a faster pace and a strong narrator who could weave all of the subplots together for them.
