I found this book an utterly fascinating insight into a part of the world that I know very little about - it was brought to life richly and smartly, and the thrilling plotline was woven together brilliantly. Truly gripping, and highly recommended - it's a book that stayed with me for a while afterwards!

Een indrukwekkende thriller. Vooral omdat deze speelt in "the real world". Persoonlijk had ik wel wat moeite met de namen in het boek. Maar dat ligt geheel aan mezelf.

So spy thrillers aren't usually my thing, and as I'm reading this I'm thinking, "No way! This is too outrageous! Even North Korea wouldn't engage in these types of activities." But I was WRONG. Too much (yes, too MUCH!) of this is based on real programs and strategies of North Korea. Crazy, crazy stuff.
