In the war-torn city of Jamahiriya, two men take a life. One is a terrorist, the other a soldier; but which is which? In this story of death and duty, roles are blurred and conceptions muddled in a tale that gives truth to the idea that one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.

Biography
I am a twenty year old Law (European) student at the University of Exeter in Devon, England. Hopefully soon I'll also be able to say 'I'm an author', too. I enjoy writing, obviously, as well as jogging, cycling, playing my guitar, learning new languages and going on the occasional adventure overseas.

Smashwords book reviews by Andy Marlow
- A Toxic Affair
on Oct. 06, 2011
I liked it. A good exploration of the issues which really puts you in the characters shoes. And it doesn't simplify the issues either.

sorry about doing two reviews. Smashwords was being slow and now it won't let me delete one of them.
- The Man With Many Nipples
on Oct. 08, 2011
Hilarious. Well worth the buy. I reckon the front cover could have been better, though, but the story isn't ruined for it.
- The Devil's Club
on Nov. 02, 2011
Cruelly short. Despite a slow start, the story soon picks up and grips you till the end. Even though you can see where it's probably going, it takes you there well.
