Customer Reviews

One of Morrell's best!

I read this book more than 15 years ago and I still remember it being one of the most exciting works of fiction I have read. Be sure to read "Brotherhood of the Rose" and "Fraternity of the Stone" first, as the main characters from these earlier books reappear in this book. I liked "Fraternity of the Stone" to be a bit more than the "Brotherhood of the Rose" - however, they are both great books.

EXCELLENT

I am just going to repeat myself in all of Morrell's area-- Why David Morrell is not a more recognizable name in this world, is beyond me.

Right on

I can't help but give this book a perfect 5 out of 5. I can't quite pinpoint it but there is a certain way David Morrell writes his books that draws you in and keeps you interested every single page. I can honestly admit that I have never encountered a writer that can draw me into a book as much as David can. If you are thinking of buying this book, do it, but first buy The brotherhood of the Rose and The Fraternity of the Stone and read them. They a precursor to this book, you don't neccessarily need to read them but it is highly reccomended. Not only do they help with The League of Night and Fog but they are excellent books in themselves. The brotherhood of the Rose, The Fraternity of the Stone, and The league and Night and Fog all rank on my top 10 books to read. READ READ READ THESE BOOKS!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent book!

This is the third and last book of trilogy. This book consist Saul Grisman and Drew Maclane characters together where they meet each other in the story for the first time. Be sure to read The Brotherhood of the Rose book first (Saul Grisman novel) and The Fraternity of the Stone book second (Drew MacLane novel).

A very good book

This book has a very good plot. Revenge from the past for the atrocities committed during the Holocaust are driven home very professionally. The characters of Drew and Saul are used to further strengthen the story. Both are drawn into the story by a unique usage of their past. After I read this book I purchased "Brotherhood of the Rose". as well as "Fraternity of the Stone". An outstanding book that will give you a different outlook of the Holocaust as well as give you a new respect for David Morrell.
