Unforgettable scene

[IamShing]

It is a unique way of telling a strory, in my opinion. Sometimes it is better to have multiple settings as to not boring the audience as long as it still sticks to the plot and do not stray in confusion.

I think the scenes that made me the most tense were the scenes that involve the murderer. I won't mention his name in case someone is reading this that hasn't gotten all the way through. In each instance, I kept hoping that the girl would get away. I did figure out who it was before the story confirmed it.

The scene where they stole the book had me biting my nails and holding my breath. That's the mark of a great spy or thriller book.

I loved the scene where Jamie was initiated into the Warramunga tribe. Even if there wasn't much action in it, learning about those traditional things was exciting for me. Also, I liked how he was nervous without knowing what's going to happen when in reality he only felt something akin to mosquito bite.

I was tense right from the beginning of the book where Jamie was trapped by fire from an Italian machine gunner. The appearance of Jacko on the scene, despite the hostile fire, was relieving but also slightly comical because he was almost jovial and also called Jammie "Cap," short for Captain, although Jamie was a Lieutenant at the time. The settings for romance were tense but the ladies were often supposed to be hardened "ladies of the night," in the underground of Cairo, and belly dancers. Most of the scenes involving Jamie, in particular, were almost sweet because of his innate shyness with women. I think most of the scenes regarding romance were a bit timid. In reality, ladies working from the conditions that they were working from would probably be more sexually open and would probably tease him more than they did in the novel. Although I enjoyed the book, I got the impression that it was written for a younger audience because both the violence and the romance was remarkably timid or mild compared to a lot of books set in similar circumstances.

Yes, I agree that the entire tone was uniquely innocent, actually. Almost as if he was very aware of who would be reading his book! But I have to say that I found it quite refreshing not to have the usual cliched, almost obligatory sex scenes The humour throughout was what I really loved, with quite a few "laugh out loud" moments.

Jacko and Monique's romantic plot was the most memorable, endearing and really cute for me.

I found the part when the young village girl was tricked by the murderer tense. I was yelling at her to be careful. Listen to your gut! I was not surprised by what happened.
The spy scenes are tense too. The English books on the housebook was predictable.
I can't wait to finish the book.

For me, I think I remember getting tensed and all worked-up whenever the spies were in motion. I held my breath whenever they spy because you'll never know what will happen to them on the other side and if they will make it back on their side. Such heart-pounding moments for me. The romantic twist did not impress me though since I am not keen on romance.

Oh my God exactly! that one kept me at the edge of my seat. However I did like the romantic twist.

I loved the scene where Jacko drove round in circles and how his trackers failed to find the right route to follow.This meant that having knowledge about camping is really an interesting phenomenon.
