| | 2. |  | SS-GB: Nazi-Occupied Britain 1941 from Alfed A. Knopf Price: $39.90
Customer Review:
 I owned a paperback copy of this, my favorite Deighton novel, back in the 70's, and I was glad to find a replacement copy for a low price. I highly recommend this book for history buffs; the period details are well done. My book arrived exactly as represented, and I am very pleased with all my... more info

| | 3. | [no image] | AN EXPENSIVE PLACE TO DIE from PUTNAMS, Price: $40.00
Customer Review:
 I've read Len Deighton's spy novels in the past, but somehow I never came across this one before. I think I know why: it's one of his lesser works, definitely not as good as the Bernard Samson novels or some of his World War II books. While Deighton is a good author, this (one of his earlier... more info

Customer Review:
 I am a big fan of deighton, and since the collaspe of the cold war this will now read as historical fiction, but still well worth the read.XPD: "EXPEDIENT DEMISE". A stunning and memorable "What if" story, based on many documented occurrences during the time of the Second World War. all deighton... more info

| | 5. |  | The Ipcress File from HarperCollins Publishers Price: $7.71
Customer Review:
 Reading this book after any of Ian Fleming's was an example of the notional shock to the system. Fleming's James Bond was a field agent and not just any field agent, mind you. He was a member of an exclusive group; those authorized by the government to kill their enemies. It was never clear if all... more info

| | 6. |  | Funeral in Berlin from Flamingo Price: $35.45
Customer Review:
 Okay, I'm a huge fan of Deighton's. I'm predisposed to enjoy his intelligent mix of spy procedural plotting, the occasional apt aphorism and his descriptive metaphors setting the scene of each new location into which his man walks. But this was quite good in plot, definitely better than An Expensive... more info

| | 7. | [no image] | Charity from Wheeler Publishing Price: $27.95
Customer Review:
 Charity marks a number of ends. First, it marks the end of the Faith, Hope and Charity trilogy which saw Bernard Samson achieve his life-long desire to succeed his father as the Berlin Head-of-Station for MI-6. Second, it marks the conclusion to the trilogy of trilogies (Game, Set and... more info

| | 8. | [no image] | Bomber from HarperCollins Publishers Ltd
Customer Review:
 How truly delighted I am to see another reviewer's reference to Kingsley Amis supposedly having considered this to be one of the ten best books of the 20th Century. To this accolade can be added Anthony Burgess's opinion of it being amongst the finest 99 books written in the English language since... more info

| | 9. |  | Berlin Game (Panther Books) from HarperCollins Publishers Price: $21.55
Customer Review:
 The standard cold war plot after 'The Spy Who Came in from the Cold: 1) bring back an agent from the 'other side'; and, 2) there's traitor inside 'our' spy operations. As in detective stories the identity of the mole has to remain hidden until the very end. This creates the usual problems of... more info
