This novel is written in a form of a video game in a way that a reader can feel the total atmosphere of a video club and to feel he is using the game. He passes from one level to another, first choosing the actors: THE ABANDONED - Saddam Hussein and Bin Laden. Later on he chooses an option, then weapons that include chemical bombs, biological cocktails, nuclear heads and the like. The next is to choose the level of general corruption and inner confrontation and finally to choose his tactics at the green table. For all these, a reader has to spend certain number of points in order to continue the game.

The body of the novel is easy-to-read, and suitable for the widest number of readers, regardless of his continent, culture and/or politics. The Abandoned represent a small, but well organized group of dangerous idealists, warriors, who use the U.S.A. territory and citizens, rejected by the system. Using weapons, support and money of their great alien, they begin their unusual and extremely well justified operation of making a big economic and military giant such U.S.A. - kneel.

This operation begins in a little hall in an unknown country a minute after midnight on March 23 (bombing of Serbia started on that date). This is the spot when a reader meets the actors of this novel.

In the next chapter, the picture moves to the Pacific, where in the middle of the night, near West Coast a reader can "hear" an, at first sight, accidental explosion on a cargo ship that starts sinking. Rescuing is in progress and, in back, an approaching ship from its well-hidden rescue deck, release twelve choppers who seem to be rescuing - but they are all loaded with nuclear heads, as well as biological and chemical materials. These choppers use the mess that started during sinking to reach land and each of them to reach its hidden and well-equipped air-force base throughout U.S.

This novel in the form of video game present to readers, through exciting and effective story, antiheroes of the world's political scene. On its pages Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein are faced with the intentions of the world's most powerful force. This exciting story has absorbed in such thematic midpoint author's strong will to narrate about violence, bane fullness of what is right or wrong, about some fundamental things, most of all moral questions of the modern competitive world. Critique: "Unusual and terse novel written by Goran Jovanic "When the charged strikes back" shows that the author knows how to find his own point of view that describes the actual world stage events more understandable and more acceptable. In other words, he can offer his own projection of events whose importance, either you like it or not, has a great effect on our destinies as well".
