Another great adventure!
This book is another great adventure for the Saint; this time back in Nazi-torn Europe. Although I was able to figure out one of the Unholy Ones right away, this still had a lot of surprises that kept me engaged.
Fun story with the scoundrel Saint in pre WW2 Europe
Fun novel as are most of the "Saint" series. Lovable scoundrel who always comes-out-ahead of the bad guys. Set in pre WW2 Europe, with bad-guy Nazi's.
Four Stars
Standard Saint -
Not a good book. I dropped it about 1/4 of the way through.
I have read all of the Saint books in the series-with the exception of this book. It is the worst book in the Saint series. Unfortunately, the writer lacked all of the charm, wit and style of Leslie Charteris.
The book is written too simply to keep my interest. It was choppy and too predictable. I put it down when the Gestapo agents that the Saint was supposed to be on guard for sneaked right up on him.
I do not recommend this book. The rest of the series if far better.
wow
This was the very first Saint book I read, thanks to a library book sale, and thanks to a lack of reading material at my hometown library, it may be the last for a while. But still- read it. If you've never heard of the Saint, except for the terrible plotless movie that bears no resemblance to the books, read it anyway. It may not be the best in the series, and who am I to say so, but after reading this I have come to one conclusion: I think I am in love with Simon Templar.
