Wilbur Smith memang jago menulis adegan aksi, tapi Wild Justice terasa sangat ketinggalan zaman dan seksis. Baru baca beberapa bab saja, sudah banyak penyebutan soal puting yang menonjol, payudara besar, serta bokong yang bulat dan kencang—semuanya milik karakter perempuan, tentu saja. Dan bukan itu saja...- Paspor saya tahun 1980 berwarna biru. Orang Amerika di cerita era akhir 70-an ini malah punya paspor hijau. Sekadar info saja...- Hubungan ayah-anak di sini terasa sangat 'Trump-Ivanka', ali...

I suppose I always knew this day would come: my long relationship with Wilbur is at an end. I've enjoyed his historical adventures and family sagas since I was in my teens, and have returned to his books whenever my swash was in need of a little buckling or there was derring to do. But Wild Justice... well, enough is enough.If cliches were spots, this story would be completely obscured by raging acne. From the stilted dialogue and the unintentionally hilarious love scenes, to the utterly predict...

Not a bad read per se, but not up to the same immersive standard as the majority of Smith's output. WILD JUSTICE is fast-paced with some absolutely stunning action sequences in it, but there are too many flaws to make it a truly crackling thriller.It kicks off on a real high, with the hijacking of a plane and the subsequent rescue mission described in sweaty detail. After this mini set-piece, though, the story seems to lose something. Smith wrong-foots you from the outset with the identity of hi...

Kalau bisa kasih nilai nol, sudah saya lakukan. Baru baca dua paragraf, saya sudah muak dengan segala referensi yang merendahkan anatomi wanita di dalam Wild Justice karya Wilbur Smith ini. Benar-benar gagal total dan sangat mengecewakan bagi pembaca novel thriller yang mencari kualitas cerita yang lebih baik.

Wild Justice bukanlah buku yang biasanya kita harapkan dari seorang Wilbur Smith. Pengetahuan luasnya tentang benua Afrika tidak banyak diuji di sini karena ia menggeser latar ceritanya ke seluruh dunia. Kesan saya setelah membaca seratus halaman pertama adalah ini akan menjadi kisah pasukan anti-teroris internasional ala Tom Clancy (Rainbow Six). Namun, seiring berjalannya cerita, alurnya pun mulai berkelok-kelok. Perjalanannya punya begitu banyak tikungan tajam hingga saya sempat mencurigai se...

Though not as burning as the chicken and the egg question, “What came first, Rainbow Six or Wild Justice?” Regardless, the concept could be carbon copied from one book to the other. Albeit, Wild Justice would be the smudged and harder to read copy. Escalating terrorist attacks lead an trans-Atlantic team of highly trained intelligence and army men to be ready at a moment’s notice to fight against the rising tide of evil. This is a plot line designed to thrill, and in both cases the authors, Tom ...

A pre-9/11 hijacking, where the terrorists are more like Carlos the Jackal and Hans Gruber than Osama Bin Laden. Complete with the mid-life crisis that seems to be in all of Smith's works.

007 style book. Not his best. The plot gets both a bit tangled and streched to fit the story in the last third.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bffL5...Treading similar lines to Rainbow six, this is a poor thriller.Problems:1. the authors inaccuracy's to suit the plot. 'Violence provokes change like the suffragettes'-no this alienated there support, it was women's role in ww1 which aided there quest for the vote far more.2. The fascist undertones. Our superman hero shoots a suspect because she'll be out next week (tell that to gitmo bay's inmates) which leads a reprisal bombing and no progress in the inve...
