Rating: 3 stars
Summary: need more of Oct.
Review: I wish that Oct. had more stories about him. Even though he is an assassin, and bad. I still liked reading about him. Its just fun reading about what is going on in his head and how he deals with his killing. This book was still good, but a slow read. If you read the Mark of the assassin, you should read this one as well. Just don't expect to read it in a few days, like i am used to doing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Terrific!
Review: This is a great sequel to Mark of the Assassin. The characters are terrific. The focus on the conflict in Northern Ireland is insightful, educational and very interesting.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great, but ...
Review: The book is excellent, and every bit as good as The Mark of the Assassin. The only negative thing I have to say about both books is: Will someone please educate Silva about firearms? I cringe every time I read some inaccurate description

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A terrific sequel - with more to come
Review: The troubles of Northern Ireland spark the return of Michael Osbourne to the CIA and his nemesis, the assassin known as October to the killing fields. The Society is still up to its usual deadly mischief, double dealing in Washington DC is alive and well and it looks as though there is little that can be done to stop an assassination which will sabotage the peace process. How all of this plays out is what keeps this book humming from start to finish. Some scores are settled, but it is doubtful that we have seen the last of the characters that survive David Silva's sequel to The Mark of the Assassin. And that is very good news.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: best silva yet
Review: This book is fabulous. we passed it around the whole family. we are big fans, and all agree it is the the best silva yet! thank you for writing thrillers and keeping up the genre!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: This is not only a fast-paced thriller, but amazingly accurate if you know anything about Northern Ireland. It captures the people, the place, and an extraordinary sense of what is going on. You will love this book and it is a wonderful history lesson right out of today's headlines. It is amazing Silva saw the future so accurately when he wrote this book. It has all come true. I have read all his books and this one is my favorite. Congratulations and keep on going!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Warmed over Higgins
Review: The Unlikely Spy was good historical fiction because it linked its story to accurate historical events. The Mark of the Assassin was fun pulp. But with the Marching Season, you wonder whether Silva has anything left to say. It's just a rewrite of Assassin in a different setting with some predictable variations in the plot. Boring.

Jack Higgins is the master of Irish political thrillers. What Silva would like to be.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great story
Review: Warning: Do NOT read this book before reading Mark of the Assassin as this is really MotA Volume II. There are many references back to MotA (another really good story in my opinion). I really liked this book and I felt the story was very well told. Definitely recommended.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Marching Season
Review: I had not heard of Daniel Silva when I purchased this book but I will certainly read more of his. This was the best novel I have read in some time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Book
Review: After reading The Unlikely Spy in one day, I thought I had discovered the new messiah of espionage writing. I was disappointed with The Mark of the Assassin, but I have renewed faith in Silva after reading this great work. Keep up the good work Silva!
