5.0 out of 5 stars bestseller plastered all over - a "faction" thriller of first order, 21 Jan 2009
By Klaus van Amelrode "kmcva" - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This review is from: The Final Reckoning (Paperback)
This is a brilliantly plotted thriller in which historical facts turned into a gripping fiction. The story develops its grip so surely it is almost impossible to put this book down. The characters are convincing and the plot easy to follow. Sam Bourne is a superb storyteller. On top there is much food for thought and as ever so often there is more truth in such "faction" novels than there is in a dozn of history books. This novel has bestseller plastered all over. I enjoyed every page of it and it made me think... 100% recommended!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A REAL PAGE TURNING WITH AN IMPORTANT DARK UNDERBELLY, 7 Aug 2008
By Ricky Pound - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Final Reckoning (Paperback)
Sam Bourne's latest novel as at its heart the darkest event of the twentieth century- that of the Holocaust and its subsequent repercussions. Here fact and fiction are skillfully intertwined in a way that compels the reader to keep reading until well in the early hours. The dark subject matter, however, is what stays with the reader well after the last page has been read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning thriller, 24 Aug 2008
This review is from: The Final Reckoning (Paperback)
Jonathan Freedland, in his alternative persona of thriller-writer Sam Bourne, should wince when the Daily Mirror seeks to shower praise on him by calling him "the biggest challenger to Dan Brown's crown". It is a barbed compliment. Freedland, after all, can write, while the jury is still out as to whether Dan Brown has yet to acquire such a skill.

The story begins, with a shooting within the grounds of the United Nations in New York. The action then moves rapidly to London. Here, the victim's entire life history is discovered and his daughter becomes involved with a former UN lawyer.

The victim turns out to be a Holocaust survivor - and avenger.

The Final Reckoning is rooted in fact, following the story of a group of young Jews who, having survived the Holocaust, set out to exact as much revenge as they can on as many Nazis as they can identify.

Hugely entertaining, The Final Reckoning is tense thriller and a superb read.
