Don Winslow- Savages

As requested on the main forum :-)

Savages
The smash hit New York Times bestseller and Top 10 Book of 2010 selection by Janet Maslin in The New York Times and Stephen King in Entertainment Weekly is now a major motion picture directed by three-time Oscar winning filmmaker Oliver Stone that will open around the world in September 2012. Savages reunites Pulp Fiction star John Travolta and Uma Thurman and features the hottest young Hollywood stars, including Blake Lively, Taylor Kitsch, and Emile Hirsch.

In Savages, one of the most celebrated literary thrillers in recent memory, Don Winslow delivers a blistering and unforgettable “story of love’s costs…and the acceptance of whatever that cost entails” (Chicago Sun-Times). Ben, Chon, and O are twentysomething best friends living the dream in Southern California. Together they have made a small fortune producing premium grade marijuana, a product so potent that the Mexican Baja Cartel demands a cut. When Ben and Chon refuse to back down, the cartel kidnaps O, igniting a dizzying array of high-octane negotiations and stunning plot twists as they risk everything to free her. The result is a provocative, sexy, and darkly engrossing thrill ride, an ultracontemporary love story riveting to the final page.
