Would you listen to Deception again? Why?
Yes. This book reveals things that someone interested in Russia already knew but is putting them in a terrifying however perfectly logical context.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Deception?
Last part that is suggesting that Western services turned around one of Russian spies.
Which character – as performed by David Colacci – was your favorite?
This book doesn't have characters... but still Anne Chapman is my favourite
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It scared me, especially now given the whole Ukrainian crisis. Living in Central and Eastern Europe seems to be scary
Any additional comments?
Good read. When I was thinking about buying that book I looked up reviews from 2 years ago, when it as originally published. All of them read something like: well documented, logical but impossible as Russia isn't a threat... Well it seems Russia is a threat and this book is explaining how and why.
