Anmeldelser
«John Lawton finds himself in the same boat as the late Patrick O'Brian - a sublimely elegant historical novelist as addictive as crack but overlooked by too many readers for too long.»
Daily Telegraph on A Lily of the Field
«John Lawton's books contain such a wealth of period detail, character description and background information that they are lifted out of any category. Every word is enriched by the author's sophistication and irreverent intelligence, by his meticulous research and his wit.»
Literary Review on A Lily of the Field
«Never mind the comparisons-Lawton can stand up on his own, and Then We Take Berlin is a gem.»
Seattle Times
«Lawton's up there with Philip Kerr and Alan Furst. Yes, he's that good.»
The Sun
«While Lawton's previous novels were distinguished by their precise and elegant prose, Then We Take Berlin offers, courtesy of its Cockney protagonist, a cruder but equally effective vernacular style underpinned by mordant black humour.»
Irish Times
«Lawton builds a wonderfully convincing picture...writing with remarkable authority... as usual with Lawton's books, it's rather more than the sum of its parts.»
Spectator
«A stylish spy thriller.»
The New York Times Book Review
«A candidate for the most entertaining historical novel of the year... fantastically engaging.»
