Product Description

Economist
'Thought-provoking . . . INVISIBLE ARMIES is an intriguing, pacy
read and Mr Evans shows great potential.'

Review
Praise for Jon Evans:

'INVISIBLE ARMIES is an intriguing, pacy read and Mr Evans shows great potential.'

(Economist )

'Anti-globalization versus international corporate greed . . . a fast-paced, politically engaging thriller.'

(Globe and Mail, Canada on INVISIBLE ARMIES )

'I was completely gripped.' (Emily Barr on TRAIL OF THE DEAD )

'THE BLOOD PRICE is knowledgeable about Balkan history, the current fragile peace maintained by NATO and the multi-billion-dollar international refugee-smuggling industry. Evans can write, too.'

(Washington Post )

'In this haunting, suspense debut, Evans takes the reader on a page-turning adventure' (Publishers Weekly on TRAIL OF THE DEAD )

'Pacy thriller for the 21st century' (The Times on THE TRAIL OF THE DEAD )

'TRAIL OF THE DEAD is engaging, disturbing, and relentless - an impressive debut novel.' (C.J. Box, award-winning author of Winterkill and Trophy Huny )

'Reading BLOOD PRICE reminded me of being a kid running down a too-steep hill, going faster and faster so that you can barely get your feet in front of you quickly enough to stop, loving every second of it. You can't stop. You don't want to stop . . . I wanted to keep reading to find out what the hell happened next.' (Quill & Quire )

'Evans has created a remarkable novel in this tale of corporate skulduggery and high-tech warfare . . . The twists and turns of the plot . . . will keep you turning the pages until the stunning climax is reached.'

(West Australian )

4.0 out of 5 stars good choice, 27 Sep 2006
By Noel Ohora "noeloh" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I chose this book from a very limited selection available while stuck for reading matter while abroad -- & what a good choice it was... V enjoyable escapism. Sharp characterisation with the right level of emotional depth, snappy dialogue, brisk pace, good action set pieces, excellent actualisation of various locations (the story moves from India to France to England to America to mid-ocean) & plenty of esoteric info (especially techno-savvy stuff about hacking & the power of computers). The plot twists & turns, & you're carried thru its implausibilities by the author's storytelling ability. When I finish writing this I'm going to order Jon Evan's 2 previous thrillers.

1.0 out of 5 stars What ever happened to English?, 29 Nov 2007
By K. Lanchester (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I found this book a real chore to read. From the unusual writing style (I much prefer past tense) to the flat characters and overly obvious plot this book just reaks of pointlessness. The technology (from an actual technical point of view) is so unbelievably flawed you wonder if the author actually bothered to do any research. I would give this a miss and look for something a bit more original.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing 3rd outing, 10 Mar 2009
By Mr. G. T. Redshaw "wolfblass" (Borehamwood) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I won't give away the plot, which is one of my pet hates in reading a review.
What I will say is that it is a much weaker offering than his 'Trail of the Dead' & 'The Blood Price'.
Too many twists and turns and far to unbelievable. It turns out all more like James Bond and the power of computers is too implausible.
What he normally does well is write with gritty realism, (you feel if you were there, you would do the same) but he lost his way in the later half.
I'm about to read his next book 'The Night of Knives' which I hope is a return to form.
