No one writes them quite like Forsyth, and this more than meets his usual high standards. Forsyth has always been a no-nonsense writer, eschewing fancy prose in favor of documentary realism, incorporating real-world elements into his stories. "--Booklist"
More than 40 years after he gave us the Jackal, Forsyth gives us the Preacher, a masked jihadist extremist whose videos are radicalizing Muslims into killing public officials. Forsyth powers his plot with a clean efficiency, providing an absorbing account of the clockwork moves and split-second decisions required to close in on and dispatch the enemy. "--Kirkus Reviews"
Forsyth places "The Kill List "very much in the real world, which is a dangerous place. By the final hundred pages, readers will find their hearts firmly lodged in their mouths. More than mere entertainment, "The Kill List" is worth reading as a tribute to those rough men who stand ready in the night while we sleep peacefully. --Bookreporter.com
More than four decades later, Forsyth s new thriller proves he has lost none of his powers. The prose, like the plot, is as taut and lean as ever. Forsyth remains the master of his trade. "--Sunday Express""

Praise for THE OUTSIDER
Like le Carre, Frederick Forsyth had an early breakthrough success ("The Day of the Jackal"), went on to entertain millions of readers (through 17 books) and carried out assignments for MI6, using novel research as a cover for 'enhanced tourism.'...'The Outsider' gives us a generous sampling of them. This is a raconteur's book...all told with such enthusiasm." "New York Times Book Review"
