Review: Brilliant, epic historical action!
Rating: 5 out of 5

Fascinating and gripping account of how a lowly railroad worker came from nothing to somehow become a man who toppled governments! What makes the story all the more incredible is knowing that it's true - that a life so dramatic was actually lived by a real person. The story is a roller-coaster of highs and lows, as Lee Christmas recovers from blow after blow, somehow rising through the ranks of one revolutionary army after another... I won't get into specifics for fear of giving away some of the twists and surprises, but it's an epic and exhilarating read, beautifully realised and impossible to put down. Strongly recommended!
