Description

From its opening pages this amazing journey plunges the reader into an action packed adventure. From California's snow covered Sierra Nevada it races through China, gathering momentum and immersing the reader in a non-stop chase culminating deep in the ravaged jungles of present day Myanmar. The lead character, Drew Blake, is far from the spit and polish of Ian Fleming's James Bond. Blake is real. He is human, susceptible, subject to failure and open to displays of emotion. His cuts and bruises don't vanish overnight. The reader quickly forms a likeable image of Blake, visualizes his looks, his demeanor. Carson Dallas interacts beautifully with his fellow agent. The banter between the lead characters provides the reader with many a laugh, and quite a few tears. A PASSAGE TO BURMA raises many questions regarding strategic military facilities within the U.S.A. as well as China's aspirations regarding Taiwan, Tibet and its expansionary intent toward surrounding nations. It brings to the fore Beijing's insatiable commitment to achieve world dominance and delves into the ways in which the U.S.A. and Russia have inadvertently assisted China in achieving these goals. The reader will experience the reality of the horrendous actions of the Burmese military junta in a nation that once conjured up romantic images of a peaceful people. 'PASSAGE' is a brilliantly executed work delivering an adrenalin overdose as it takes the reader through air chases, steamy leach ridden monsoonal jungle incursions and a final scramble for survival in the wild waters of the Bay of Bengal. In this epic modern day adventure, Jason Denaro plows three years of research into the creation of a work of cinematic magnitude.Buckle up and enjoy your unforgettable ride on A PASSAGE TO BURMA.
