Los ojos de tuareg

Rating:
Summary: adventure and activism
Review: Twenty years after writing Tuareg, Alberto Vazquez-Figueroa decides to put his ability to write adventures in strange places into the defense of the Tuareg people.
In the middle of the Sahara desert a rally pilot ends the peaceful living of the Sayah family (the family of Tuareg's heroe, Gacel Sayah) by poisoning the well's water (the only means of survival). From now on this family is at war. The next racers that come by are captured and used to trade for the culprit so that their ancient law can be enforced and justice made.
In this book you'll have adventure, you'll learn something from one very old culture and you'll be faced with the biz behind a sports event that moves huge quantities of money.

Suggestion: read Tuareg first, if you haven't already. The best adventure I've ever read.
