Summary: Stunning novel of WWII demonstrates masterful storytelling
Review: I stumbled onto this book by accident, browsing in a library, and was immediately hooked. Iles' words give life to three dimensional characters who are unforgetable and adventures that are horrific, mesmerizing, and spine tingling. I am an avid reader of all types of fiction and this is one of the best you'll ever read. I read it so fast that I immediately turned around and read it again so I wouldn't miss any details. It was even better the second time.

Rating:
Summary: historical fiction at its best.
Review: Greg Iles has incredible talent and Black Cross is as well researched as it is well written. The intricacy of the plot is amazing, the details true to life, the romance believable. Mac, Jonas, Rachel and Anna come to life, we know and understand them, and they remain true to themselves. What more could a reader want?? WWII is fertile ground for literature, and Greg Iles digs in for all its worth. Take this book on vacation, and come away with so much more than a sunburn and photos.

Summary: Unbelievable. Grabs and doesn't let go.
Review: Normally I randomly read what ever my hand happens upon, but with this book I've found a new writer to watch. This book is history-telling as it should be. It's fiction enough to interest the reader, but real enough that you come away with a feeling of being there. Made me understand a little more the horror and the battles, large and small, that were fought to save the few that were saved, and to understand the scars that remained even in those who were not imprisoned. Can't speak highly enough about this book, it was truly amazing.

Summary: Riveting, edge of your seat action
Review: Iles is a genius! Within the first few pages he manages to put the reader into the time frame and situations of his characters. No Hogan's Heroes Nazis here! Sturm, Brandt and Steiner are more than believable...they are terrifying. The last 100 pages or so of this book are can't-put-it-down marvelous. This is one truly worth the phrase "page-turner!"

Rating:
