review 1: I received an autographed copy of this book in a Goodreads giveway.. .thank you for that. And overall I liked the book. It is definitely not something I normally read. Although I do like a good thriller,and as any good thriller this one held my attention and was interesting for me. I did get confused at times but I think that was more because I am sort of unfamiliar with the topics.. WWII, Hitler, espionage, etc. With the inclusion of the time travel I found it a unique and interesting twist to telling of the story. Some times dragged and some times I couldn't put it down.
review 2: An annoyingly confusing book. The majority of the book is an interesting story about WW II espionage in Greece but the beginning and the end of the book concentrate on a character... more other than the main character but who seems to be the same person as the main character, only under a different name. The author presumably had some reason for this in his mind but he did not make it clear to the reader. The end of the story is left 'dangling' with no clear resolution of the fate of the main characters. Add in an escape from an impossible situation by the hero thanks to advice from a ghost, (which is an easy ploy for an author to avoid having to devise a plausible scenario) and the presence of time travel, you end up with what could have been an interesting thriller but becomes a story that leaves the reader perplexed and annoyed. less
