THE LION’S GAME—Nelson DeMille—Written before Sept. 9, 2001, the book portrays, though fun, move right along writing, and an ever changing plot, the mindset of an Islamic terrorist bent on revenge. Asad Khalil is present when the U.S. bombs Libya in retaliation for a yet prior attack and witnesses the death of his family. His anger festers for years and through his connection with the Libyan President, Asad and his anger are turned into a terrorist with a specific plan; a plan that seems to succeed all too well. Amongst the murder and mayhem a love affair blossoms and blooms….a good fun read.
