MEDIA REVIEWS
Dazzlingly intelligent and subtle.Worthy of Raymond Chandler... intelligent,inventive,constantly entertaining.Deighton is a fearless observer of the deceptive human world.They don't,as they say,write them like this anymore. You will be entertained,informed,thrilled and dazzled. Long may he,and his creations,live on.A wonderful mixture of the exciting and the amusingly humdrum...James Bond may be thinner,but so is his dialogue.Len Deighton is the Flaubert of the contemporary thriller writers.
