"My favorite Higgins book. Better than the original book. Liam Devlin the rogue IRA Irishman as his best character, even tops Sean Dillion. Good detail as to weapons and equipment and faster paced than The Eagle has Landed. I read the hardback twice and listened to the audio book, twice."
— John M. (5 out of 5 stars)
" Exciting sequel to "The Eagle Has Landed." This book keeps me wondering; did people really think keeping Hitler in power meant ending the war sooner? "
— Justin, 1/2/2014" Fun and actionpacked read. No literature, but just great adventure! "
— Marcel, 12/16/2013" a deserving end to the prequel "the eagle has landed" this book brings bak the mischievious liam devlin bak and that too with a bang and panache... "
— Abhishek, 11/16/2013" I only read to make sure Kurt wasn't dead. "
— Mary, 10/10/2013" I enjoy novels about WWII and this is a good one. Jack Higgins' writing is quick and carries you along with the story. "
— Ginny, 5/25/2013" A good read ... WWII w/ human intrigue mixed in. "
— Kathy, 2/1/2013" Not as good as its prequel, but still very good. "
— Tanvir, 2/1/2013" This is one of those the author should have quit while he was ahead books. I really liked The Eagle Has Landed but this was too easy to figure out with a minimum of action. If the parts where people are smoking or drinking were omitted the book would be 50 pages shorter "
— J.P., 12/31/2012" read the whole thing in about 2 days worth of hammoking in costa rica. suspenseful nazi stuff "
— Dustin, 12/25/2012" Not as great compared to its predecessor "The Eagle Has Flown." Nervelessness it is an interesting read. "
— Indika, 2/27/2012" This novel nicely complements his masterpiece and provides some added adventure and closure to the overall saga. "
— Pete, 10/11/2011" Fast moving historical fiction "
— Rose, 6/3/2011" Rehash. Minor entertainment, but we learn very little that's new about any character. Higgins shamelessly repeats the scene in a garage in which Devlin is picking something up and must outwit the nasty brothers he's buying from (the Garveys in TEHL, the Carvers in TEHF). Yawn. "
