This book seems interesting. You provided a great overview of the book. It is not a story that I am interested in. However, I think that readers who like historical books may enjoy it. Thank you for your review.

Jack winnick is an amazing story teller. Despite a few strong points I don't like to read in books, this book could be enjoyed. Your review was amazing as well. Thank you.

Thank you for your discerning review. I appreciate that you said the geopolitical aspect was the best. You are wise to warn readers about the political perspectives within. You also provided informative quotes. Good to know that you gave it 4 stars. I will add to my shelves.

Sounds like a great geopolitical thriller that touches on important, timely topics; the Iran and Israel situation is especially concerning, and it’s nice to see an author incorporating those things into his work. I may give this one a look. Thanks for the review, mmm17. :techie-studyingbrown:

I have read a book about Mossad, and this book seems to touch upon that. Religious Terrorism is one of the cruelest things that happen in the world.

Congrats to Jack Winnick for giving us Devil in False Colors, the third in his series and well deserving of BOTD. The geo-political nature of the plot could have been taken from today's headlines, which gives this book its scary authenticity. Well-done.

The title, as well as the topic of this book, automatically made me want to avoid reading any further into it. The political undertones and mass terrorism are completely too much for me to enjoy this BOTD.

Thanks for this informative review. I was undecided about whether I wanted to read this one or not, but your review convinced me that it's a worthy read.
