Read Shakespeare on the Roof Storyline:

Shakespeare on the Roof is the first of the famous Jack Hamma action adventure novels. With satire and wry humour our indomitable hero struggles through the red tape and endemic cock-ups of a top secret, military operation. Full of action, but sugar coated with Jacks signature throw away lines, the book is a hard to put down, thunderingly good read.Jack is in a canoe paddling for his life on the open sea. ‘The light was fading fast now. The vast mass of the sea, in giant waves, crashed and smashed against our tiny craft and then it happened, a spotlight swept the sea around us and a machine gun opened fire. My mate turned, yelled at me and pointed, blood was streaming down the side of his face, we paddled faster and I steered the canoe to where he had pointed. We were moving as fast as we could to an appointment with a bullet. The machine gun rattled again and cut tiny holes in my paddle, it made quite a pretty pattern. Bullets started to smash into the rudder, the rudder spat the dummy and turned us into the course of the unfriendly fire. More bullets exploded into the back of the canoe and we began to take on water. Take on water, we were bloody sinking!’If you enjoy action adventure novels, but with a splash of humour, Jack Hamma has arrived.Review: ‘What a splendid book. How come Australians are able to do such fast action packed books? Part action, part private detective and 100% funny, Jack Hamma is a brilliant character, reluctantly getting himself into lots of tricky situations and so difficult to kill. Really looking forward to reading the next Jack Hamma adventure.’
