A little far-fetched in places but when did we let that get in the way of a good story. It is a novel with an appealing hero, a beautiful heroine, evil villains and a fast-paced plot which races across Europe with enough twists and turns to make the reader dizzy...And as the clincher where else would you get a detailed (if somewhat repellent) description of how to eat an ortolan." --We Love This Book"The book is well-paced, both dialogue and descriptive passages tight, the exploration of the gaps in Cobb&aposs understanding given just the right weight, and controlled well until the reveal... If you enjoy well-researched and well-written historical fiction, you will definitely find it worth giving Robert Olen Butler a try." --Crime Review"As with The Hot Country, this is a rollicking thriller with a keen eye for period detail that hops from the wreck of the doomed ocean liner to London and then on to Istanbul. The story is peppered with some excellent moments of action and more than a little chemistry between Cobb and Bourgani, but the book stands out for its muscular voice. This is an author in absolute control of his craft." --Scotland HeraldPrésentation de l'éditeurThe Star of Istanbul is the second Christopher Marlowe Cobb thriller from Pulitzer Prize winning author, Robert Olen Butler.
