All the early Ken Follett books are fantastic. He did write some stinkers, but all in all, one of my favorite writers. May favorite is "Lie Down With Lions."

If you remember while reading it that it was written it 1980s, you have a very high probability of liking it. Will definitely keep you fixed from the beginning till the very end. A great read. It is one of its kind amidst so many espionage tales. If you have a weekend free, I would recommend this.

The very first adult book I ever read. My mom gave it to me to read. I think the theme may have been a bit to adult for me (I was 12 or 13 at the time). I am debating whether I should reread this book and see what I think about it today as an adult.

This boook really kept my attention. This is about a ruse to fool the Germans at the Normandy invasion.

I rated this book well because of the superb way that Follett weaved his story. It didn't get its fifth star because, well, I predicted the ending. To be fair, Follett gave some ingenious clues, and most people wouldn't notice it. Despite my psychic abilities, I couldn't put this one down, and would recommend it to anyone who likes a good spy novel (I'm a fan of Robert...more
