Publisher Description

The Spandau Diary—what was in it? Why did the secret intelligence agencies of every major power want it? Why was a brave and beautiful woman kidnapped to get it? Why did a chain of deception and violent death lash out across the globe, from survivors of the Nazi past to warriors in this new conflict about to explode? Why did the world's entire history of World War II have to be rewritten as the future hung over a nightmare abyss?

"i have heard of greg iles over and over again...i started a couple books and read devil's punchbowl on a plane...and just found out this is one of 2 german/nazi based books with which he started his career. i have to hand it to him...this book picked up speed. had john grisham NOT recommended it so highly, i would have put it back. He reminds me a lot of Allan Folsom, another amazing and underrated author. i love acts 2 and 3 in this story and the conclusion was nice. i will for sure read more."

    " Spandau Phoenix was my first Greg Iles book. And I like his style. I just bought 6 more of his books at a used-book warehouse. It'll be hard to decide which one I'll read next. I could have given this book 5 stars if it had been a little more suspenseful. But it was still a fun read nonetheless. "

    " I've read all of Greg Iles books and loved them, except for this one. I bought it like I did all the others and couldn't wait to read it but I couldn't get through it. It was much too violent for my taste. I like the thriller part of it but I just couldn't stomach the violence early on. Not typical of Greg's style. "

    " Normally Greg Iles is one of my favorites, but this book was quite different from his "typical". It was his first book and more along the style of Tom Clancy.It was just too convoluted for me. "

    " Black Cross was better. This one felt dragged out... who is Hess? What was the secret mission? One fluff character "Sparrow" was not needed (woman assasin). The last third of the book was very exciting. "

    " It is a wow - ok, it can not keep me reading all the time, since there are heavy parts (ok, I am not a history person - at all - and also), but it is very good. Many lines run into the final outcome, let's wait and see. :) "

    " Too many subplots and too many characters. Really - British, Americans, Germans, Russians, Israeli, South African, Columbians and Cubans. Really!!???? Why didn't you throw in the kitchen sink? Oh, he did - Nazis and a nuclear bomb. I'll stick with Jack Higgins, he does better with less. "

    " A very complex story revisiting the 1941 "peace" visit that Rudolph Hess made to England. Was it a legitimate effort to enter into an alliance between England and Nazi Germany or the opening move in a vast conspiracy. Good story but too long. 700 pages. "

    " I'd really like to give this 2 and a half stars. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't great. I thought it moved pretty slowly at times until near the end and then it began to speed up...a little. Again, not terrible but if you're looking for action/adventure, stick with David Baldacci. "
