DRINK WITH THE DEVIL
No thrill in this thriller, I was surprised to see other "good" reviews. I basically felt it was boring without any "bang" at the end.
DRINK WITH THE DEVIL
This book is about adventure and has a real grip of suspense. Sean Dillion a former IRA member who specializes in killing people starts working for the British Intelligence. Michael ryan a pro-Irish steals millions of dollars in gold from the British to finance the war in Ireland. Dillion is sent to get the gold back in any way he can but the mafia steps into the fight and rush to find it. However, the gols sank on a ship ten years earlier and only one man knows where the gold is. Who will win the race? Jack Ryan knows how to write good books and this one is superb!
DRINK WITH THE DEVIL
Maybe if this book was wriiten by another author it would have been acceptable, but it certainly isn't up to Jakc Higgin's usual standards. The story seems to drag on with character's plucked straight out of his last book. It almost seems as though this book was written simply to fill the hands of his readers until he could come up with something good.
DRINK WITH THE DEVIL
A fast moving, timely, and sensitive action yarn about the struggle in Northern Ireland. Bombs, guns, the Intelligence Community, and Dillon, hero of Higgins' recent stories. Not predictable, and NOT slow, the audio cassette, read by Patrick MacNee is a perfect treatment, with the reader's suptle linguistic differences. A fine effort.
DRINK WITH THE DEVIL
For the most part, this book is split into 2 sections: actions that take place in 1985, and those in 1995. The first section is full of action and was fun to read, but the rest of the story did not compare. The plot and main character definitely had potential, but in all, this is not an impressive story. Another thing to take into consideration is the price of the book. True, Amazon does a great job of keeping prices low, but the margins are wide and there are line breaks on almost every page. If you must read this, try your local library
DRINK WITH THE DEVIL
Jack Higgins' alter ego Sean Dillon explodes into action! Dillon could take Dirk Pitt and Jack Ryan and not spill a drop of his beloved Krug champagne.Higgins' style, more American than European,has introduced US readers to a more exciting UK than the normally boring British prose.An exciting and enjoyable read.
