Like Buckley's other novels, plot, characterization and moral satisfy. Interesting historical perspectives. This is light fare and easy to read in one sitting

4.0 out of 5 stars Great settings, characters, and Buckley's style = must read!, May 1, 2001

By	Kevin Kilpatrick (Sevierville, TN USA) - See all my reviews

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, June 9, 2009

By	ironman96 (Ohio) - See all my reviews

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.
