This is an old story, but I couldn't put it down. When the hero is dragged from his quiet life reviewing models for a hobby magazine and pitched into an adventure which take him halfway across the world, he discovers hidden resources and unexpected friendships that lead him, against all the odds to retrieve a hidden treasure, and transform his life.

The story is fine, but I was very disappointed that the volume sent was a facsimile copy of the original, not a copy with the cover as shown. The print is just a little fuzzy. It doesn't of course spoil what is a very good story, but the book supplied did not match the illustration

Brilliant read, completely compelling and especially for the child of any engineer. Great read for anyone
