No Man's Land

Más información sobre el libro

NO-MAN'S-LAND takes place at the end of August of 1937, in the days prior to the Battle of Belchite in the Spanish Civil War, but is in no way a novel of war. It is a thrilling tale of adventure full of humor, starring Alex Riley and his loyal friend Joaquin Alcantara, volunteers in the Lincoln Batallion, who unintentionally find themselves mixed up in a daring rescue mission under the very noses of Franco's Army. The episode I describe in this book took place a few years before the events described in the novel Captain Riley, and is one of those stories usually told by the fireside or at the end of a long evening, with a glass in one hand and one's gaze lost somewhere in memory. The story of NO-MAN'S-LAND could be called a novella, or perhaps a long short story (180 pages, you can be the judge of that), which does not require you to have read Captain Riley in order to enjoy it. A story filled with action, humor and a few added drops of love, which you might find hard to tear yourself away from at night so as to go to sleep. Well, reader-friend, I think this is all I had to say. I hope you enjoy the adventure, and that this will just be one more of the many journeys we will share from now on.
