4.0 out of 5 stars
Great settings, characters, and Buckley's style = must read!,
By Kevin Kilpatrick (Sevierville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Brothers No More (Paperback)
I am sure W.F.B.'s moniker as "the great conservative thinker" will repell many from this work, but the well developed characters, and romantic settings make for a good work of fiction regardless of your affiliations. This could be thought of as a thinking person's "Talented Mr. Ripley". Maybe not the most thought provoking read you will ever have, but I think it is one of the most entertaining.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting, dramatic novel--not what I expected,
By
This review is from: Brothers No More (Paperback)
Although this novel was not quite what I expected, I ended up enjoying it nonetheless. At first, I thought it was going to be a military or CIA thriller. Instead, I found it to be more along the lines of a Greek tragedy where the main character ends up destroying himself due to his own hubris. It is an entertaining and interesting book with compelling characters. Buckley was known to be a talented writer and you can tell when you read this book.
