Book Reviews of Agent Zigzag: A True Story of Nazi Espionage, Love, and Betrayal
Book Review: A blue-collar double agent Cary Grant
Summary: 5 Stars
First: what a character! Eddie Chapman, common criminal, daredevil, ladies' man, double agent extraordinaire recipient of the Iron Cross from Hitler, hob-nobbing with London elite...a blue-collar "To Catch a Thief" spy story.
Second: a gripping can't-put-it-down tale, written like a great novel, chock-full of larger than life characters in larger than life circumstances.
And, as it ended, I was sad that they're all gone...but enriched for having, through Ben Macintyre, known them.
A great book waiting for the film that will do it justice.
Book Review: A great story
Summary: 5 Stars
I listened to the audiobook and it was great.I do alot of driving and it is a good way to spend the time.After starting Agent Zigzag I found I was disappointed when I finally had arrived at my destination because the story is so good.Eddie Chapman may have been a crook but you could'nt help but like and admire him.A great book,one of my all-time favorite's.Book Review: A waste of time
Summary: 1 Stars
Includes too much trivia. If you want to read about German intelligence, read Hitler's Spies: German Military Intelligence in World War II. If you want a great spy novel read The Spy Who Came in From the Cold.Book Review: Agent Zigzag
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the funniest, most engaging non-fiction books I have ever read. Well researched. Ben MacIntyre is brilliant in his ability to describe events in great detail and humor. Even better (and funnier) than Operation Mincemeat. I am now a huge fan of this author.Book Review: Agent Zigzag
Summary: 5 Stars
I truly loved this book! It's a rare author who can combine a true biography/history with dramatic writing that mesmerizes the reader.
I couldn't put it down!
