Critics Review

  • ‘A real humdinger. The best MacLean.’
    Daily Mirror

    ‘There is a splendid audacity about Where Eagles Dare, in which a handful of British agents invade an “impenetrable” Gestapo command post … MacLean offers a real dazzler of a thriller, with vivid action, fine set pieces of suspense and a virtuoso display of startling plot twists.’
    New York Times
