Essential reading * Anne Applebaum, author of Gulag *
'Highly informed, crisply written and alarming ... Wise up and stick together is the concluding message in Lucas's outstanding book' * Michael Burleigh, Evening Standard *
'An impressive polemic arguing that the West still underestimates the danger that Putin's Russia poses ... A useful appeal for vigilance' * Sunday Times *
'Perceptive and accurate ... the KGB regime is attempting to restore the Soviet Empire' * Vladimir Bukovsky, former Soviet dissident *
'If you need a convincing argument for a joined-up EU foreign policy, look no further' * Angus Macqueen, Guardian *
