This is an immensely intriguing thriller with all the elements of a fast paced, imaginative and grand-scaled plot. It was hard to put it down.
Being a white male American, conservative and probably a Republican, Terry Hayes could hardly restrain his contempt for muslims and arabs.

This was an absolutely epic book. Being a fan of Vince Flynn it gave me chills throughout. I love the eye for detail Terry Hayes has and I can't wait to read more from him. Absolutely epic. And even though it has 900 pages and is long the pages just kept turning and speed picking up.

One of the best books I have read this year! I can’t wait for the next one to come out! Well written and the characters were great. Pilgrim was awesome! Everything I want in a book!
What a great book. One of the best I've ever read. The last 15% was nothing short of masterful. I can see why this book was rated best of 2014 in the thriller genre. Kudos to Terry Hayes. He has a new fan.
