Me ha gustado, ha sido una gran ambientación, y que lejanos recuerdos de la película venían a mi mente, habrá que revisionarla.Fue muchísimo mas difícil el camino que la meta , MADRE MIA QUE PENALIDADES para llegar, una vez lograron entrar, fue todo mucho mas "sencillo".Si os gustan las novela bélicas y el cine bélico, este es un clásico.Valoración: 7.75/10Sinopsis: Sobre la sólida roca de un acantilado de la isla de Navarone, en el mar Egeo, se alza la inexpugnable fortaleza del ejército nazi. ...

Another very neat action-packed story from MacLean. Many plot twists, many complications to the original story line that move the realization of the plan away to literally the last page of this book. Very likeable protagonists. Recommendable.

Re-Reading for first time since teenager. Must have made an impression as I remember it quite well! Good old fashioned daring-do action in WW2. No complicated politics or emotions, just good guys trying to save other good guys from bad guys. Cracking adventure writing.

I wore out the VHS of this growing up, so it was time I finally read the novel! “Let’s get away from this joint. Gettin’ downright unhealthy round these parts.”It was impossible not to imagine the likes of Gregory Peck as Mallory, Anthony Quinn as Andrea, and David Niven as Miller while reading this. The Guns of Navarone is fast-paced, just like the film. MacLean doesn’t waste time getting down to business. This is the first novel I've read in a long time that I found hard to put down!There are ...

Again,an Alistaire MacLean story works very well on the screen.Gregory Peck,Anthony Quinn and David Niven star.

Action packed and thrilling WW II adventure about a commando unit sent to destroy a German fortress.

Would I like the book to the same extent ? Not sure as I don't find MacLean's writing style particularly elegant.

En general, no me ha gustado como narra la acción y tampoco hay mucha. Demasiadas descripciones y muchas, repetidas. Demasiado diálogo y demasiado largo con demasiadas acotaciones.
Poca fluidez. La parte final se hace aburrida.

In general, I did not like how the action is narrated and there is not much. Too many descriptions and many, repeated. Too much dialogue and too long with too many dimensions.
Little fluidity. The final part becomes boring.

According to Wikipedia,"The Greek island of Navarone does not exist and the plot is fictitious; however, the story takes place within the real historical context of the Dodecanese Campaign, the Allies' campaign to capture the German-held Greek islands in the Aegean Sea in 1943. The story is based on the Battle of Leros, and Leros island's coastal artillery guns – among the largest naval artillery guns used during World War II – that were built and used by the Italians until Italy capitulated in ...

A classic thriller. MacLean always delivered the goods. I remember devouring all of his titles out of the library. I wouldn't suggest doing them in a row, because things can get a little repetitive. But that's to be expected of almost any author.The concept, of having a team as the only way to take out the guns guarding a narrow straight through which the ships needed to rescue troops, have to traverse is a bit forced. But it does lend to a tight thriller with a clock ticking.What's best about t...

4.5 Stars Quite by accident I picked this up and started reading. From the first page, the esteemed war thriller author, Alistair MacLean, engages his reader. Off the coast of Turkey in the Aegean Sea the Germans and Italians control a cluster of islands and the area shipping lanes. On one island 1200 British soldiers are trapped and will soon be attacked by the Axis Alliance. The destruction of the mighty Guns of Navarone is the only hope these Brits have. It is a suicide mission. The guns are ...
