Reviews
Silva can truly write. He creates tension with a real master's touch ... from page one we are hooked into the action * IRISH TIMES *
Each plot-twisting segment is marked by almost unbearable tension ... Silva's unsmiling prose urges you on like a silencer poking at the small of your back * ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY *
Silva continues the unique blend of fact and fiction that gives his stories the immediate and urgency of the evening news ... With THE MARCHING SEASON, Daniel Silva confirms his position as a front-runner to succeed Tom Clancy as America's foremost source of international intrigue fiction * BOOKPAGE *
It's a difficult and risky endeavour using the Troubles as a background for a thriller ... Silva, whose THE MARK OF THE ASSASSIN was a powerful and intelligent piece ... uses locales well, from the backstreets of West Belfast to the rolling hills of Armagh, and avoids the cliches to produce a solid thriller * CRIME TIME *
