Eagle Rising (Gollancz)

by David Devereux (Author)

Synopsis

Jack's back! And this time he must face a terrifying supernatural threat from Europe's recent past. Someone has been mad enough to revive the most terrifying evil of the last 60 years. And only one man is bad enough to stop them. Eagle Rising takes Jack to the rotten heart of big business and the dark secrets of a neo-nazi magical sect intent on giving the world back to a terror from the darkest days of the 1940s. Jack must infiltrate the closed corridors of big business and reach the core of a conspiracy amongst some of the most high-pwered city executives in the country. A cabal of business men with occult interests and an insane hunger for the return of an old and dark order. Described as a mix of Dennis Wheatley and Ian Fleming Devereux lives up to the billing with his new novel.

Media Reviews
Rather like Abbadon's Afterblight Chronicles, these stories are never going to be eligible for the Nobel Prize for Literature, but they're fun, unpolitically correct adventure tales that keep you turning the pages. DREAMWATCH If anyone ever took Harry Potter, brainwashed him mercilessly till he lost that amiable do-gooder attitude, combat trained him to the standards of Andy McNab and threw in a few painful S&M experiences, you'd probably end up with Jack, David Devereux's uncompromising lead character in Eagle Rising. A gritty spy thriller dripping with magic and oozing with gore. -- Sandy Auden SFX
