4.0 out of 5 stars The Quest for a Czar, 23 Jan 2006
By Klaus van Amelrode "kmcva" - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
A new Romanov Czar on the throne of Russia..... well sometimes one wonders whether that would be indeed a good idea if one takes into account what the "so-called red Czars" and the "so-called democratic Czars" make out of Russia.

Steven Berry based his thriller on the present state of Russia, the actual disputes in the Romananov family over the question of the headship of the House, the prophecies of Rasputin and most of all on the eternal mystery what has happend to the last Imperial Family. All this is a perfect background for this action filled thriller which indeed grabs the readers attention right from the start. The story develops quickly, the personalities are convincing and the plot intriguing. It was a page turner for me and I wanted to know what happens next. So never a dull moment.

I agree with the previous reviewer that the chases were a bit too much. I feel that certain aspects a bit far fetched. That he turned Prince Felix Juppussov into the "hero" who engeneered the long-term survival of the the Imperial Famnily was a bit difficult to stomach but it was cleverly done.

All in all, a book I enjoyed reading as it stimulates one' s phantasy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Finding the new Tsar, 14 Oct 2005
By Linda Oskam "dutch-traveller" (Amsterdam Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Miles Lord is walking through Moscow after lunch when all of a sudden assassins start shooting and kill his Russian colleague. Only inventiveness and sheer luck prevent him from being shot as well. The Russian people have decided that they want to reinstate the Tsar and Lord is working for an American law firm that is helping one of the Romanov contenders for the throne. But apparently he has stumbled onto something important because the killers keep trying to murder him. He wants to get to the bottom of it all and he teams up with Akilina, a Russian acrobat. Together they are the Raven and the Eagle, who, according to one of Rasputin's prophecies, will reinstall the Romanov's on the Russian throne. In the end they succeed, but before that they travel halfway over the world and a lot of people are killed in the process.

The author has very obviously studied the style of Dan Brown, but I liked Brown better, even tohugh it is difficult to say why. A decent read while on holiday, even though the endless chases are tiring at times. I was also surprised by the fact that it takes Lord, who seems to be quite bright, such a long time to work out who the villain is behind it all. The historical background is actually quite adequate, which means that the reader can get a good insight into the end of the Romanovs and the beginning of the Communist rule.
