Book Reviews of Prince of Fire (Gabriel Allon Novels)
Book Review: A Silva Masterpiece
Summary: 5 Stars
Despite reading them out of order, I have thoroughly enjoyed Silva's entire Gabriel Allon series. This and "The Messenger" are the best. "The Messenger" was a fabulous page turner with a timely message about Saudi financed terrorism. "Prince of Fire" is just as good, but in a different way. It is a bit more cerebral. It has plenty of action, but it also gives the reader a closer look at Allon and, particularly, details of the Black September revenge assassinations that got him started on his career with The Office. I do not recall having seen those details in the previous Allon novels.
Another highlight of this book is its historical perspective on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. I have not seen this history provided in this depth since many years ago in Leon Uris' "Exodus." Although provided in a fiction format, the history appears good, and, despite being told from the Israeli view, it seemed to provide a fair hearing to the Palestinian viewpoint as well.
If you have not read anything in the Allon series, this is a great place to start. Then move on to "The Messenger." Both are masterpieces.
