Compelling Novel

Active Measures by Alexander Court is an exciting book. From the very beginning, I found the story intriguing and informative. I look forward to Alison Carter's next mission.

Beach Side Reading

I really enjoyed this book. I picked it up in an airport for an East to West Coast flight. It is a fun thriller that takes an interesting historical premise and pushes it to the limit. A lot of Swedish readers seem offended, but this makes the book more intriguing. Is there truth to the author's claims? Is he getting close to a touchy subject? There are a few editing mistakes, but sadly, what modern book doesn't have them. This book is a solidly good political thriller. It is there to be enjoyed, not to be scrutinized as reference material.

Great book for all who love intrigue.

Alexander Court brings an intrigueing and scary situation to lite in this thriller. For all people that thought Sweden was a nation of good guys think again. He uses fact and fiction to tell people the way things realy are over their. As a former government employe he would know this stuff.

A Must Read - Shocking

This is an amazing novel. Alexander Court has used fact to create a chilling fiction. After reading this book in two evenings I did some background checks on Court's historical information and I was shocked to find out that the events were based on reality. The book was exciting and fast paced. It put goose bumps up and down my neck. You need to buy this!

Unexpectedly Great

This was a surprisingly great book, a real quick read, and I think most people would really find it both enjoyable and intriguing. It looks like just another typical political-thriller type novel, within a few chapters not you realize that not only is it a good modern fictional story but just as interestingly a factual indictment of the behavior and actions of countries and companies-even US companies-during World War II. Read it and you'll learn some things that I'm sure those criticized don't want you to know.
