A man called by his opponents Gen. Hell. A man named Lucius Fenryder. A man ... for now ...

General Hell will launch his Wolves northerner decapitate the government. The plan is ready and go. The victims are numerous and not always the same camp.
Alec Covin returns with the conclusion of his saga of the Wolves. I wanted to give you a few events since the beginning of the saga. And this simply because this novel is the finale we expected. Whoever completes a work in progress.
The first two elements are repeated and mixed so that nothing is forgotten. All outstanding issues are raised and the answers do not necessarily like us. But the talent is there Alec. He surprises us every page. The first two novels already left a lot of character with which he could play. It's not serious, but he uses it creates others. Therefore, we are left with a bunch of characters but they are all discernible, they are all individually. He can write characters, and we love them. And they are good or bad side. They are endearing. At no time, you fall into stereotypes or pathos free.
I must admit one thing. Twice I had the tears flowing. The story takes you so that you live in the guts all events to 150 per hour, and you take the walls to each chapter. He never gives in to the facility. Ever, it takes the gloves: a character must die, he dies. And without warning.
With this fourth novel (third in the series of Wolves), Alec Covin sign a work that leaves on the floor many of its competitors or colleagues. While some toil to write a novel a year and lose quality over the years, it improves with age. It has its assets less publications than others, but they are all values. Go buy
General Hell! And if you have not read the first two, take the opportunity to buy them in pocket. And get the trilogy in one go! You will not be disappointed!
