Rezension zu „The Wrath of Angels “
Connolly's writing is poetic, mystical - and almost impossible to put down -- Woman & Home Haunting, scary and addictive ... the finest crime series currently in existence. As always, the plot marries an ingenious, if recognisable, detective story with something wicked and otherwordly. -- Indepent on Sunday Few thriller writers can create a sense of menace and evil as deftly as Connolly does. Compelling. -- Irish Independent Connolly has always managed to deftly juggle the essential elements of genre fiction with his own supernatural flavour and WRATH is no exception ... Connolly has crafted [Parker] so expertly. -- Hot Press Ireland With Connolly, good and evil are always too close for comfort -- Daily Mirror Connolly returns to page-turning form with his depiction of a moral world at the mercy of epic conspiracy and remorseless, primordial evil -- The Irish Times [What] is so impressive [is] the fact that he's able to work poetic language into the thriller format ... You may think at times you are reading a literary novel but then Connolly will remind you he's just as adept at the violent strategies of the thriller. Either way you will be left shaken by the experience. -- Daily Express This thriller might just have you grasping for your childhood teddy. -- Loaded His latest plot is a clever mixture of quest and chase ... rarely fails to sing -- Observer Skilful at humour and building suspense, Connolly's writing is also poignant and at times downright beautiful -- Sunday Business Post Ingenious, seriously scary and plausible ... Excellent -- Sun
