Where Eagles Dare

Rating:
Summary: Good Book from a Good Author
Review: This author makes his living on plot twists. Just when you think you have it figured out there is a new course. The story is a good one and very well told. The author has his historical facts correct which is important in this type of book. I would like more to a story, the editors in the 70's must have been paid per word they cut as it seams most books of that era are a little on the short side. That aside this is a good yarn with a good story.

Summary: I read this 20+ years ago and still recommend it to friends!
Review: This book falls under the category of one of my all time favorites (as does Alistair MacLean fall into the category of one of my favorite authors). I particularly enjoyed it as I was living in Germany and visited so many of the places mentioned -- it seemed real to me.

Summary: An amazing book
Review: This book is one of MacLean s best. It is full of suspense and action from the very beginning. I thought he did a very good job of bringing the characters to life. There were enough plot twists and turns, as well as double, and even triple-agents to keep anyone guessing. A great book!

Summary: A fine piece jerry - bashing.
Review: This is simply one of those can't put down, thrill - a - minute, will he won't he? classic books that have us reliving WWII. Bullets wizz, double agents crawl out of every hole and you are never quite sure of the outcome. Brilliant, I am so glad Maclean wrote thirty odd thrillers, I won't be running out for a while!

Rating:
Summary: Thriller!
Review: Where Eagles Dare is one of the most thrilling books I've ever read. It has every exciting bit of adventure from jumping out of planes to undercover agents. The author definitely gives a good understanding of the characters, and I didn't get lost at one point along the way. If you're into adventure/mystery, this is definitely a book for you.
