Scarecrow

Breathless action… Explosive stuff” was the Mirror`s summing up of Matthew Reilly`s third – and previous – novel AREA 7, the second to feature his unstoppable new protagonist, Captain Shane M. Schofield, USMC — a legend for our times. Lieutenant `Scarecrow` Schofield first burst across international consciousness with Reilly`s second novel ICE STATION, an extraordinary tour-de-force from a young Australian author still in his mid-twenties. He is now a best-seller in every continent. A keen movie-goer, this author aims for filmic speed of pace, a rip-roaringly original story, non-stop action and thrills and adventure, with all of these in exotic settings. His ongoing ambition is to reinvent what he already does so brilliantly – and take the action thriller up to the next level.
