A decent book. Not the best Follett

Some unlogical decisions attributed to both sides, especially on the German side. A good read anyway.

This narrator often pronounces words or complete ends of phrases in a "sophisticated" whisper. When listening to the book in a not sufficiently silent environment this means guessing what these words are, based on the context.
Kerr does as usual an excellent jobs mixing historical facts with fiction: this time the after war secret services intrigues in Greece. Not pretty. He does not fail to mention his aversion for the EEC, and probably would be a brexiteer nowadays. Many totally disagree with this short sighted opinion. Some other Kerr characteristics: Britons rarely play a role in his books, he certainly does not like the French. The Greeks are sometimes described with nearly pejorative clichés. Not my favorite Bernie Gunther book.

J'aime la science fiction mais trop d'aspects illogiques dans ce livre. Par exemple ces immenses cités souterraines qui vivent sur un même monde mais s'ignorent totalement, cela me semble improbable.

This is a whodunit in Prague involving good old Bernie Gunther and high ranked WW2 German SS generals. The Heydrich plot is perhaps too Machiavellian. As usual Kerr mixes real events with fiction in an interesting way and we learn a lot about the cynicism of these German mass murderers. Having read many Bernie Gunther books, I wonder if people during that period were really that obsessed with cigarettes.

Je ne suis jamais parvenu à m'intéresser à cette histoire. Je manque probablement d'imagination mais l'incroyable odorat du héro m'a paru ... incroyable.

The way Kerr mixes his story with extremely well researched historical facts is fascinating. He really does not like the French, dislikes the Russians or the Americans and sometimes his main character Bernie Gunther seems to go a long way to explain (excuse?) the German behavior. Probable truth is that every nation is guilty at some point in its history of horrible behavior, but the systematic, organized murder of millions is not easy to forgive. One last point: in the 5 Bernie Gunther books I have read so far, the Brits appear only sporadically and are rarely criticized.

The most interesting part of this trilogy is the description of the daily life in Germany in the years preceeding WW2 and after the defeat. Also the interaction between secret services after the war is interesting.

Rude histoire qui finit plutôt bien. Dure la vie de flic en Afrique du Sud. Myer est un maître de l'analyse de caractère et du suspense.

Passionnant du début à la fin. Je ne connaissais pas cet auteur. Le genre de livre dont on ne voudrait jamais arriver à la fin.

Le narrateur est parfait. Le livre est une longue liste d'analyses de personnages souvents paumés, parfois durs, touchants. Les rues de Paris et le rock en toile de fond. A écouter.
