Brilliant again!,
By
This review is from: The Day of the Dead (Paperback)
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, as much as previous Jack Valentine novels. Great characterisation, plot hopefully (?) implausible, maybe editing could have been improved in places, but who cares? I loved the characters (though I think you have to start with Sirius Crossing) and when I discovered Creed it restored my faith in modern thrillers.

Absolutely Brilliant,
This review is from: The Day of the Dead (Paperback)
This book, although starts off a little slow is just as good, if not better than John Creeds debut book, there is non stop action and was very hard to put down. Maybe it was because I had read "The Sirius Crossing", this book meant more to me and was all the more exciting. So I reccommend that you go out and buy both of John Creed's books as they are brilliant from start to finish.

Phoney,
By Mr. Warren M. Fisher (East Grinstead, West Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Day of the Dead (Paperback)
Deeply unconvincing thriller - from the clumsy writing, flimsy plotting to the bland characterisation. Phoney through and through - this is bogus thriller writing from a bland hack with delusions of grandeur. Ordinary at best, toe curling at its worst - only worth checking out if you're really desperate.
