—Christian Science Monitor
“This lean, suspenseful tale, peopled with compelling characters, has a drive and signature all its own.”
—Publishers Weekly
THE INFANT OF PRAGUE
“Fascinating… compelling… Devereaux, the November Man, is back, and we’re all a little richer for it.”
—Chicago Tribune
“The characters are lively; the plot is as rapidly and smoothly paced as it is complex; the humor arrives without warning, and Granger continues to juggle the pieces while producing a unique spy thriller.”
—Richmond Times-Dispatch
“Colorful… wonderfully complex… readers will delight in Granger’s deft unraveling of the skeins in this terrific page-turner.”
—Publishers Weekly
HENRY MCGEE IS NOT DEAD
“The plot moves smoothly… Granger writes crisply… Devereaux provides a satisfactory ending.”
—San Antonio Express-News
THE MAN WHO HEARD TOO MUCH
“The action is swift and brutal… his sense of characters is powerful. As ever with Granger, the prose is the opposite of the bloodless stuff of techno-thrillers.”
—Chicago Tribune
“Granger’s plots can be as intricate as the best le Carré… Granger is a master of fooling the unwary reader.”
—St. Louis Post-Dispatch
“Bill Granger is a rarity among writers of serious novels. Each of his books seems better than before.”
—Minneapolis Star-Tribune
LEAGUE OF TERROR
“Granger writes a very, very good espionage thriller.”
—Los Angeles Times
“Granger is a pro, with polished writing skills… [that] spur the reader on.”
—Chicago Tribune
“Snappily paced thriller… Staccato stylist Granger delivers easy-reading entertainment via plot and counterplot.”
—Publishers Weekly
THE LAST GOOD GERMAN
“The Last Good German is the twelfth November Man novel, and may be one of the best… The characters are complex and the plot is an unusual wheels-within-wheels puzzle.”
—Baltimore Sun
BURNING THE APOSTLE
“Granger’s icy Devereaux has entered into the halls of legendary thriller characters… electrifying… the narrative races along, snappily paced with wickedly effective dialogue. Devereaux remains the most believable character in current spy fiction.”
—Tampa Tribune Times
—Publishers Weekly
