Reseñas de la Crítica

"If you enjoy Matthew Reilly or the movies Mission: Impossible, Die Hard or Armageddon, you’ll love this too. Steve Worland is a screenwriter by trade, and his debut novel is paced exactly like the big-budget movie it will probably become. The plot is completely over the top, the action is utterly unbelievable, and the characters are straight from Hollywood central casting, but it’s perfectly executed and fabulous fun, and I loved every minute." (Aaron Beck, Psychiatrist)

"A brilliant rollercoaster ride of a novel. I couldn't put it down." (Hugh Jackman)

'If you enjoy Matthew Reilly, or the movies Mission Impossible, Die Hard or Armageddon, you'll love 'Velocity'. It's perfectly executed and fabulous fun and I loved every minute of it.' (Australian Bookseller & Publisher)

Action, laughs and then some more action.

An unlikely but thoroughly enjoyable action adventure. Don't think too hard and enjoy the ride.

Don't wast our money
