As with many other reviewers I find this book hard to rate due to the disturbing content. I am giving it the same rating I gave Natchez Burning, but my feelings about the two books are very different. Natchez Burning lost a star because after starting as a compelling civil rights mystery/family d...
When I discovered that Greg Iles Natchez Burning was appearing on several To read lists, I decided to read the other books in the story first. I liked this one, but parts of it were difficult to read. The scenes and descriptions of dogfighting and the brutal treatment of women by the "bad guys" ...
I'm getting ready to read the highly acclaimed and long-awaited Natchez Burning and wanted to read this short before starting. Wow! What a great reminder of how damn good Greg Iles writes. I didn't just have a lump in my throat, my chest was in knots reading The Death Factory. This was a very...
How I rated this book.All books start with 5-stars then have stars or partial stars deducted. 1. This book was not jaw-droppingly amazing in the way The Remains of the Day or Things Fall Apart were. Neither was it brilliant, ground-breaking, and thought provoking like pretty much anything by J...

While in Hong Kong, Jordan stumbles across an exhibition of paintings, all of nude...
Hands down this was one of the best books I have read in a long time. Greg Iles does a brilliant job of writing a book that reads like a movie, the plot and scenery so realistic that I had a hard time tearing myself away from the story, reading it in three sittings despite the 500 plus page span....
Riporto l'opinione su questo libro pubblicata sulla bacheca di facebook di una amico:"[Poi discutiamo di mercato digitale, editori e metadati] Questo è uno dei romanzi più inquietanti e complessi che abbia letto negli ultimi 10 anni. Io ci ho scritto sopra un paio di pagine in uno dei miei libri,...
Novel ini merupakan salah satu dari sekian banyak karya penulis novel misteri kenamaan, Greg Iles. Sama halnya dalam novel lainnya, The Footprints of God, sekali lagi Greg Iles mengajak kita berpetualang menguak sebuah misteri dahsyat. Misteri yang membuat Anda terus terjaga sepanjang malam. Jadi...
I come across a lot of these modern thriller type books at work, and most of them are quite poor in my view. However, I was quite impressed with this, Greg Iles's debut novel. What sets this apart from other novels of a similar type (many of them written by more popular writers, I might add) are ...
When I started reading Turning Angel, I found myself arguing about reasons why I should like it.Synopsis: In a small American town in the South called Natchez, a high school girl called Kate Townsend is found dead. Beautiful, intelligent, and popular, her death sends the town reeling. Penn Cage, ...
Book-reader's Bias: Due to my recent non-fiction readings on WWII heroic men of science material, I was probably a bit more apt to be underwhelmed by the fictional portrayals of same in this book than I might have otherwise been. It's an interesting adventure story with decent verisimilitude, oh ...
