3.0 out of 5 stars decent Jack Higgins fiction, Jul 10 2003
This review is from: Thunder Point (Paperback)
Thunder Point is based on the premise of a World War II-era manuscript being uncovered in the present day and having widespread ramifications. For a similar (and much better) tale of suspense, check out Spandau Phoenix by Greg Iles. Higgins handles the Dillon character well, and Thunder Point is good enough for a quick satisfying read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fast paced. Easy to read., Aug 12 2002
By Sonterro (Lakeland, Florida USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Thunder Point (Paperback)
This is another good book by a great author....

A very good story. Character development is good. Some parts of the story leave a little to be desired. The characters seem to stumble across information without having to work for it. I think that a longer version of the story might have been better. More details instead of conicidences or just plain being in the right place at the right time so often.

Anyway, this is a fictional (?) story of what may have happened to Hitler's second in command, Borman, during the closing days of the war. Escape by submarine with secret papers and orders to continue the cause after the war ends. The sub gets sunk in a hurrican in the Carribbean. A local diver finds it 40 years later and exposes the contents of the orders.... The British government, as well as the remaining Nazi sympathizers are very interested in obtaining them....

Enough about that. This is a fast read. A good book to read if you are traveling. Easy to pick up right where you left off. Not a lot of details to remember. I think Higgins was in a hurry to get this to the press. :)

Still worth reading though.

1.0 out of 5 stars Higgins just mailed this in
I am a Jack Higgins/Sean Dillon fan, but this book falls far short of Higgins' usual level. It appears that Higgins put absolutely no effort into this book. Read more

This is the finest book about drinking I've ever seen. With every action, or conversation, emotion, or other thing of interest, a drink is enjoyed by the characters. Read more
