4.0 out of 5 stars Loose ends, 5 Nov 2003
I was captivated by the plot from the very beginning, finding the technique of weaving present and past very effective. However, the author left several things unresolved. I read the end three times, trying to make more sense out of it and to find answers to questions which had been presented earlier in the book. The end was too fast, too vague, too unrealistic. Furthermore, I think Eastermann coud have eliminated the few sensuous parts instead of forcing them in just because that's what one expects nowadays. The romance would have developed more delicately had he left it alone.

This was my first Eastermann book. I'm eager to read another one!

4.0 out of 5 stars Past and present mystery in Morocco, 13 Jul 2003
By MamaLuz (Garbagnate Milanese, Milano Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Maroc (Hardcover)
I picked up this book at Brussels Airport merely because I love Morocco, but not particularly thrillers. I read half on my one and a half hour plane journey (!) and the rest in two days: I thought the atmosphere created by Easterman of Morocco during WWII was very credible and authentic, as well as of present-day Marrakesh - behind the usual tourist hype. I was amazed at his obvious in-depth knowledge of Morocco and Arabic. The plot was fast-moving (perhaps a little too much, especially at the end...) but a highly recommended read for lovers of Morocco - and of course for thriller fans too!

3.0 out of 5 stars Very good read, but could be better, 16 May 2003
I've been reading Easterman since 1991. My favourites of his books are:

The Last Assassin - brilliant debut, one of the best
The Ninth Buddha
Night of the Seventh Darkness (arguably his best book)
Name of the Beast

I enjoy reading all his books, however I have found like many other readers that Easterman is not at his best in recent years.

The good thing about Maroc, like nearly all his other books is that it draws you in from the beginning. Page after page, you want to continue till you reach the end, then you're devestated.

Good read, but could be better - not a classic. Hope his next book is better.
