This is a unique work by the king of thrillers. It is a story of Van Heerden, an ambitious doctor who takes over the world and brings corrosive destruction. It is interesting as the mysterious, one-dimensional, anomalous circumstances and colourful language spell-bind the reader. Moreover it is full of intrigues and excited actions that successfully beguile the one who reads it. Fascinating!
