This review is from: The Freedom Trap (Hardcover)
I hadn't heard of Desmond Bagley when I came across this book. What had attracted me to this book was a comment by a critic that this book puts Bagley into Alistair Maclean's category. Personally I think this book far exceeds anything that Maclean ever wrote. An amazing plot that stays with you forever !

This review is from: Freedom Trap (Paperback)
It is great that these books are back in print. Freedom Trap, Running Blind, Landslide and Snow Tiger are the best.It would be nicer if they were available for Kindle. Hint, hint.

Masterful thriller for fans of Fleming, DeMille and Maclean,

This review is from: Freedom Trap (Paperback)
Wow, Desmond Bagley is good! This was my first novel by this author, but definitely not the last. "The Freedom Trap" is a taut, unpredictable, totally absorbing story about a top-secret operation to take down an organized crime ring and a Russian spy in one stroke. There are twists and turns, an international chase, intense action scenes and a larger conspiracy as the story unfolds. Bagley was definitely a master of the thriller genre in the British tradition of Ian Fleming and Alistair Maclean, with a very polished and vivid style of writing. His influence on popular writers like DeMille, Ludlum and Follett is clear--but where they might take four or five hundred pages to tell a story, Bagley does it in 250. This makes for a very lean, fast-paced novel, which I found impossible to put down. If you haven't tried this author, do yourself a favor and get some of his books. Absolutely top shelf!
