1.0 out of 5 stars Very Very Bad, November 17, 1998

By A Customer

Having enjoyed TS:Paris and having endured TS:London I had to read TS:Berlin to test my pet theroy, TS:Paris is by far the pick of the litter and it is my belief that it was written by someone else! TS:Berlin is surpassed in poor writing only by TS:London. It's a tragedy to see good concepts trashed this way!

1.0 out of 5 stars No research, poor writing, December 1, 1997

By A Customer

This was my first purchase of a book by Mr. Evans and it will be my last.

Having been stationed in Berlin from 1966 through 1972, it quickly became evident that Mr. Evans' knowledge of the physical layout of the city was deficient. One example is his implication that the Brandenburg Gate was close to the American Sector of the city when in fact it is adjacent to the British sector. Another was his description of the escape over the Wall where it seems that the wall is at least 15 or 20 feet high (the characters set a ladder on the cab of a truck to climb over). In fact, most stretches of the Wall are only 10 to 12 feet high.

Another problem was Mr Evans' lack of knowledge of the relationship of West Berlin to West Germany. West Berlin was an occupied city and there were no German military personnel allowed in West Berlin. Mr. Evans implies that the Mayor of West Berlin had tanks to place around the city. The only military in West Berlin at the time were American, British, and French troops. The only forces available to the Mayor were two police formations equipped and trained as light infantry.

Overall, this book was a great disappointment.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not that bad..., July 26, 2000

By	Eric William Jackson (Scottsdale, AZ United States) - See all my reviews

I have read all three TS books. I liked it. I have never been to Berlin so the story line seemed fine to me. It's fiction for God's sakes....
