Great insight and a great read
Revisado: 08-23-08
My particular interest was in the making of a recon marine, as my dad was one in the Korean War. The rest was secondary for me. Thankyou, Nathaniel Fick. It was an insightful and interesting and amazing account of tough warriors who handle small children like butterflies, in the midst of war.
His account of the psychology of the Iraqi people was wonderful to read, and puts tv reports in so much better perspective.
This is a page-turner, and a gift to the informed American reader.

Exciting and Lyrical
Revisado: 04-27-07
I would add my voice to the first review and agree with everything that was written. It is an exciting book, and you are drawn into all the characters' lives. The characters do not change any history, they merely live in it, painting a picture of living at the time of great events. For most of the book they are living at the far edge of these events. I loved it.

With his mother's attackers fast on his heels and with no one to trust, not the authorities, his father, nor the woman he loves, his perilous search takes him from the Texas Hill Country to New Orleans, to London, and to Miami. Full of unforgettable characters and jolting plot twists, Panic is an emotionally charged, heart-stopping thriller about one man's determination to take back his stolen life.

So-so
Revisado: 03-06-06
It was a decent thriller. It took itself so seriously, tho, and so few of the characters were fleshed out enough to care about. I kept hoping i would care about someone, or someone would make me smile. In the end, everyone seemed hopelessly miserable.

Great fun to read
Revisado: 03-06-06
This was a surprise - what fun. The world of the wealthy in New York was fun to learn about, and the murder mystery itself was well constructed, suspenseful, and...full of humor. What a great mix!
