DESCRIPTION:
"Kindle Only Review" according to Redmaw. Some formatting problems - each chapter start is a few paragraphs out of sequence. Poor editing, didn't anyone proofread this? Also no way to skip to the second book (no table of contents).That being said THE EYE OF THE TIGER is pure classic Wilbur Smith. Lean and action packed, usually the first book I recommend when someone asks about his books.. Kindle needs to withdraw this book Definitely DO NOT order this book. The formatting problems are not minor and Kindle should withdraw this title and fix it. At one point it completely forwarded to the middle of the second book. Elsewhere you enter conversations in progress and a page or so later the parties THEN greet each other.

THE EYE OF THE TIGER The deep. Because possessing this treasure isn't just about getting rich--it's about staying alive HUNGRY AS THE SEA Wilbur Smith sets his vividly realistic novels on the razor's edge between human courage and nature's wrath. Now, his future has come down to a powerful boat and a daring rescue mission. The damnedFor a thousand years, an unimaginable treasure has rested on the bottom of the Indian Ocean, hidden by swift blue currents, guarded by deadly coral reefs, and even deadlier school of man-eating great white sharks.
