Podrobnosti o e‑knize

The small Caribbean nation of Baqia becomes a major international player when a local doctor develops a new weapon with terrifying implications. General Corazon, Baqia’s greedy dictator and local cult leader, now controls a weapon deadlier than any known to man. The Mung Machine’s monumental killing capacity has all the major superpowers scrambling, as General Corazon is ready to sell to the highest bidder.

The Chinese, the Russians and the CIA all vie for control of the Mung Machine. At the same time, top-secret government agency CURE’s very own deadly weapons, Remo and Chiun, make their way to Baqia where, to their horror, they discover nuclear warheads aimed at the United States.

The mad dictator Corazon must be stopped, but has the Destroyer finally met his match?

Breathlessly action-packed and boasting a winning combination of thrills, humour and mysticism, the Destroyer is one of the bestselling series of all time.
