This is a story of love, lust, loyalty and betrayal. It reeks of violence and cynicism. It is about a world without integrity where everybody has a price ... and it is written with such pace and conviction that it is totally believable

All of Mr Puzo's formidable storytelling talents are on display... a big, fast-paced tale

The Last Don is a return to the pure mythic storytelling form that made The Godfather one of the bestselling novels ever

The writing is good, the characters strong…I would recommend this to anyone who likes a good thriller

Puzo's genius was to create a world so thick with personality and acknowledged rules of behaviour, along with its crime and violence, that reading his books becomes a seriously guilty pleasure

As for fiction, there can only be one choice - The Godfather.

With Child, you can always count on furious action - and a damned good time.

Masterful writing and storytelling...Child makes it look effortless...If there were such a thing as a writer-magician, Lee Child woud be the face above the cloak.

Child always puts his heart into the elaborate quasi-military operations he cooks up for Reacher...But there's something even more chilling about those lonesome hours spent riding the Interstate, watching the rundown family farms and commercial strip malls and topless bars go by.

Will leave the legion of Reacher addicts satisfied but craving for their next fix.

The most satisfying of all 17 thrillers in the series. The unfolding of events nudges along at just the right rate... toward an authentically gripping climax.
