Reviews

The Coalition has a lot of good action and suspense, an unusual female assassin, and the potential to be another The Day After Tomorrow [the runaway bestseller by Allan Folsom]. --James Patterson, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Spies of the Midnight Sun is not only a skillful, rapid-fire historical spy thriller, but also a fine source on one of the least-known and most heroic chapters of the Second World War. --Kirkus Reviews Marquis is a student of history, always creative, [and] never boring...A good comparison might be Tom Clancy. --Military.com A simply riveting read from beginning to end, Spies of the Midnight Sun is impressively informed and informative, and a work of solidly researched history. --Midwest Book Review Samuel Marquis's Spies of the Midnight Sun weaves historical truth with masterful storytelling in an action-packed and intriguing tale of covert spy operations during World War II. --Foreword Reviews Altar of Resistance is a gripping and densely packed thriller dramatizing the Allied Italian campaign...reminiscent of Herman Wouk's The Winds of War. --Kirkus Reviews Marquis is the new Follett, Silva, and Clancy rolled into one. --Prof. J.R. Welch, Editor of Dispatches from Fort Apache In the richness of the texture of his material, Marquis far exceeds the stance of a mere raconteur and entertainer of the masses--he, in fact, becomes a public historian. --Lois C.Henderson, Bookpleasures.com (Crime & Mystery) - 5-Star Review A combination of The Great Escape, Public Enemies, a genuine old-time Western, and a John Le Carre novel. --BlueInk Review (for Bodyguard of Deception, Book 1 of WWII Series) Marquis writes quite well, but his real contribution with Blackbeard: The Birth of America is historical....An engrossing and historically grounded yarn. --Kirkus Reviews Marquis grabs my attention right from the beginning and never lets go. --Gov. Roy R. Romer, 39th Governor of Colorado The Coalition starts with a bang, revs up its engines, and never stops until the explosive ending...Perfect for fans of James Patterson, David Baldacci, and Vince Flynn. --Foreword Reviews In his novels Blind Thrust and Cluster of Lies, Samuel Marquis vividly combines the excitement of the best modern techno-thrillers, an education in geology, and a clarifying reminder that the choices each of us make have a profound impact on our precious planet. --Ambassador Marc Grossman, Former U.S. Under Secretary of State
