Summary: a good book with some really silly references to icecream...
Review: This book opened marvelously, but it quickly went downhill after the main character's visit to the icecream castle to find the significance of the 94 men's deaths. I can accept the Mr. Liebermann has a great deal of intuition, but his conclusions here are beyond unrealistic. My favorite part was definetly when our hero chained the dreaded Mengele to a tree and emptied the can of spray-on moose pheromones onto the villain's back. You really redeemed yourself here, Ira!

Summary: captivating summer reading
Review: This is a very interesting book to take with you on vacation -- there is no chance you will get bored. It is not a piece of literature that requires great deals of concentration. No way! But it is an easy-to-read and captivating story, which shows that Ira Levin has plenty of imagination and a gift for creating suspense.

The story takes place in 1974 and involves Dr. Mengele, known as the Angel of Death, a famous figure in the concentration camp of Auschwitz during World War II. In the story, he is involved in a crazy and revolutionary project, designed to lay new seeds for the Aryan dominance in the world.

I admire the writer's gift for creating vivid dialogue and a well built story so compelling that it was difficult for me to put the book aside, just what I wanted for perfect reading at the seaside.

Summary: brilliant
Review: This is one of the greatest thriller novels ever written. The surprise twist in the middle of the book blew me away. I absolutely could not put this book down. I can't tell you how annoying it is to me that Ira Levin is so unprolific. I'd trade all of John Grisham's and Tom Clancy's books in for one new Ira Levin novel.

Summary: Creepy
Review: This was a good book, but it seemeed dated. It seems like this story would only be relevant in that period when old Nazis were still roaming the Earth and a potential danger to society. And of course cloning is not the great wonder or mystery as descrbibed in this book. Mengele, the God fearing Nazi, scares me because he see nothing wrong with being so hateful. It was good in the beginning, but once the whole Nazi scheme was figured out the story lagged behind.
