What Members Thought
Ken Follett sure has written a hell of a lot of good books at this point in time. He is remarkable for the consistency of his style and the well-groundedness of everything he does. As well as several other fine points of skill. Follett is perhaps the foremost author able to combine historical fiction with espionage fiction. Before his career shifted whole-heartedly into hist-fic he was responsible for big hits like, 'The Eye of the Needle'. That romp is among the best WWII yarns ever penned.

Let me start out by saying that “The Man from St. Petersburg” by Ken Follett, is one of the best thriller novels I’ve ever read. The plot is excellent. His characters are well developed. The writing is superb. The antagonist keeps escaping the authorities up until the climatic end, were he dies a heroes death. There is a historic flavor to this novel that makes one think this might be a non fiction book.
