Why read it?
1 author picked Running Blind as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This fantastic Desmond Bagley novel has a gripping opening line and never lets up the pace.
It’s one of the first Bagleys I read, and I was hooked as a fan from page one. I love every one of his 17 novels and keep going back to them; he really is the master at what he does: action-adventure, with "everyman"-type heroes thrust into dangerous and deadly situations.
For some reason, he’s fallen out of fashion, but I’m on a mission to change all that–alongside his publishers, HarperCollins, who have commendably kept his books constantly in print.
From Michael's list on action-adventure books that are not crime thrillers.
