This book reminds us on how unsafe the world is with terrorists killing and maiming innocent civilians, especially women and children. The Middle East terrorism seems to be the epicenter of all terrorist activities as described in the novel. Thanks for the review.

I'm not really into geopolitical books, but I guess this one seems interesting. From religiously motivated international terrorism to prejudice against Jews, this book is enough to make the readers invested and enjoy the fictional tale within the topics. Nice review! Thanks!

Not my usually topic interest, but it does sound interesting. It does sound like a possibility there will be some romance to so that's an plus for me. It is a serious subject but it sounds like the author did a good job shedding light while entertaining the reader. And a little controversy never hurt any one. I dont know yet if I will try this one, but congratulations on BOTD.

I like how you pointed out the political dimension of this novel and that some readers may be disturbed by it. It sounds like a page turner.

Religion-based terrorism is a very bad reality. The events mentioned in the book are actual historical elements. I am definitely interested in this book.

The geopolitical outlook the author has used sounds interesting, but ultimately I am not a fan of books to do with terrorism. I don’t think I’ll be reading this one.

Post by dragonet07 »

The topic is interesting and the characters sound promising, even if religiously motivated terrorism is a little too realistic at the moment. I am typically able to push past differing political views for good fiction, but when it's generalized in such terms as "liberal elements" rather than naming the specific issues one sees in these policies, I have a much harder time getting past it. Right now, I think I'm getting plenty of this kind of thing from current events and recent history and would rather focus on processing those events and their significance, but I'll keep this on my list for another time. Thank you for the helpful review.
