Sobre este artículo
New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons/Penguin Group, 2010. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Young's first novel (his second book) is this highly-praised Afghanistan war story. A U.S. transport plane, carrying an important Taliban prisoner of war, is shot down in a blizzard over the Hindu Kush. There are three survivors -- the POW, a woman Army intrepreter and the plane's navigator. With the storm making air rescue impossible the two Americans begin an odds-against battle for survival in some of the most unforgiving terrain on earth and against two very cruel enemies -- nature and man. Boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket shows perhaps a touch of edgewear, no tears, no creasing or chipping, not price-clipped. A collectable copy.
Sinopsis
A transport plane carrying an important Taliban detainee for interrogation is shot down in a blizzard over Afghanistan. For two people-navigator Michael Parson and a woman Army interpreter, Sergeant Gold-a battle for survival begins across some of the most forbidding terrain on earth against not only the hazards of nature but the treacheries of man: the Taliban stalking them; the villagers, whose loyalty is unknown; and a prisoner who would very much like the three of them to be caught. All Parson and Gold have is each other, to stay alive. It is a novel of relentless pace and constant surprise-and the beginning of a brilliant career. Watch a Video
