5.0 out of 5 stars A true page turner ... Jun 6 2010
By Michael Jager
Format:Paperback
From the first page it was hard to put the book down. The desire to see what happens to all those men and if there is a way to stop the murders kept me turning the page. Truly a well written book worthy of more than one re-read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Overall Good Book April 7 2002
By John G. Hilliard
Format:Hardcover
In the area of World War Two, Hitler historical fiction this is an interesting story. The author created a plot that is getting close to possible with today's technology. A lot of the historical facts introduced in the book are accurate and the author uses these facts to build a complete story. From a wiring point of view the book is above average, but not an edge of your seat thriller. The story is complete, the plot is a good one and there is adequate character development. It is a good book that is worth investing the time.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Thriller Ahead of Its Time Feb 15 2002
By Matthew Flaschen
Format:Hardcover
Boys from Brazil begins disturbingly, with of group of three men in South American plotting to kill 94 men with civil servant-type jobs. These men are to be killed at specific dates but no mention is given of why. Thus the book continues, slowly building to an unpredictable climax of repeated history that must be stopped.
Even though I already knew the ending to this book it was still a wonderful read, and I heartily recommend it to anyone who knows their ABC's

The Boys From Brazil is 12th grade reading with a 5th grade concept. It begins with big, bad Josef Mengele and the "boys from brazil" planning the 4th Reich. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Caution!
Normally, I like reviews that give a short outline of the plot of a book or movie, because without that, you don't know whether you'd like to spend the time. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Ingenious
I'm amazed that this book has been allowed to remain dormant and out-of-print especially in light of recent news reports of cloning animals and human cells. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Good story, but the characters seem like cartoons
Ira Levin's mid-70's thriller about a Nazi plan to repopulate the world through cloning and assassination certainly keeps the reader's interest. Read more
