Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Will give 3 and 1/2 stars
Review: This is one of those novels where its not really a problem to put the book down and take a break. The writing style is such that it just doesn't grab you and not let you go. It is well researched and brings back some history that I've forgotten involving General Patton and his ideals and opinions. The action-when it occurs-seems abrubt. The details could have been more interspersed with the action to create a more fluid and suspenseful read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A first-rate thriller
Review: This novel is first-rate. Reich spins a captivating tale of a German Olympic runner and a New York detective caught up in a web of intrigue and revenge in the period immediately following the fall of Germanay and the end of the Second World War. Devlin Judge is part of an international tribunal to try Nazi war criminals. He sets out to capture Eric Seyss who has escaped from a POW camp. But Seyss, a former Olympic sprinter, has one last mission to accomplish for the Fatherland. This mission is part of a conspiracy that reaches into the upper echelons of the American army.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Chris Reich did it again!
Review: Yes, Chris Reich did it again! I just finished reading his second novel, The Runner. Wow! I admit you that it is the most complicated novel I had to read it real slowly so I wont miss anything in the long run. This book is so exciting as the first one, The Numbered Account but they both are different in time settings. The second book is set up in postwar Germany, having problems in accepting the defeat and the fall of the Nazis. The protagonist, Devlin Judge was in the hunt on the former Olympic sprinter, Erich Seyss, who became the White Lion who was responsible for killing Judge's brother. Avenging for the brother's death he have the resources to use with the United States Army to hunt the White Lion at what price? Turning the profit from the Army into a blown-out conspiracy against Judge and he had to get it out...Erich Seyss isn't giving up the desires to destroy him, the Army and even for all! I assure you that this book have plots which will stop you from finding out how to stop the White Lion. Chris Reich had it written very well with the historical facts with the fiction, respect the cultural, social and languages of the post-war Germany. It made me felt that I am in that time, seeing the events happen in the war and can imagine the moods in story-telling. He did it wonderfully! Get tuned in "The Runner". You wont miss anything from this book but please read it slowly to enjoy every bit of the pages! I recommend everyone to read it.

Rating: 1 stars
