LEN DEIGHTON is considered one of the most important British espionage writers. He has written more than thirty books that range from historical fiction, dystopian alternative fiction, and brilliant nonfiction on the Second World War.
"Deighton, Greene and John le Carréeacute; comprise the reigning triumvirate of fictional spymasters beside whom all others pale."-Seattle Times "A massively different novel... the effect is - quite literally - devastating." --Sunday Times "Few authors writing in the rigorous and finite genre of spy fiction have mastered the craft as well as Deighton." --Chicago Tribune "Deighton is so far in the front of other writers in the field that they are not even in sight." --Sunday Times "Lively, exciting, ingenious." --Observer "For sheer readability, he has no peer." --Evening Standard What raises Deighton's genre to art is not only his absorbing characters but his metaphoric grace, droll wit, command of technical detail ... and sure sense of place." --Washington Post "I love him! The Berlin Game trilogy made lockdown possible." --Olivia Laing
