Good action story

This was a fast paced and generally well written story with a reasonably believable story line. That is about all

A thriller with plenty of twists and turns

Four stars for a nice easy to read thriller. Thoroughly good read with plenty of twists and turns. Nice one.

Excellent. My first book by this author. Full of thrills and excitement. I must try to find out about his other books..

This is a story that you might read about in the Sunday tabloids. A real spy novel. But this has the realization that this is what goes on every day in the world of a spy.

A man made virus - fact or fiction

A brilliant written and entertaining read from start to finish. Geoffrey Archer could not have had any idea when he first published this how frighteningly relevant it would be for a world gripped in the midst of a pandemic. Definitely worthy of 5 stars, brilliant plot, characters that you feel are real. Highly recommended.

Another mind boggling tale from Geoffrey Archer

Geoffrey Archer clearly does a considerable amount of research as his plots always have a very authentic feel to them. The Lucifer Network is no exception and holds the readers interest to the end, as usual leaving unanswered questions.

A good read but.

A very good and intriguing plot. I will probably not read any more Geoffrey Archer books as I dislike having to do a review on his excellent stories.
