Recenzje

'City on Fire is as incendiary as its title suggests; a tale of family and friendship, carnage and corruption, that draws on the classics but has roots in the here and now. It ranks alongside his best, and Winslow's best is as good as it gets.'
Mick Herron, Top 10 bestselling author of the Slough House novels

"City on Fire is the best gangster novel since The Godfather."
Steve Cavanagh, #1 bestselling author of the Eddie Flynn series

'Pure genius! Nobody can bring such grit and such heart to crime fiction as Don Winslow-and with such a unique and compelling stylistic voice.' Jeffery Deaver

"Gritty, moody, and totally immersive, CITY ON FIRE is the first installment in an epic new series that is sure to grip readers from the start. This is Winslow at his very best."
Sunday Times and International Bestselling Author, Karin Slaughter

'Winslow is our Dickens of modern crime. I can't think of anyone better at what he does.' Linwood Barclay, the international No.1 bestseller

'Superb. This is storytelling with a keen edge. City on Fire is exhilarating to read.' Stephen King

'Epic, ambitious, majestic, City on Fire is The Godfather for our generation.' Adrian McKinty, #1 bestselling author of The Chain

'Echoing Homer's epic Iliad, Winslow delivers a fast-paced, intense, and brooding story. It's perfect for readers of William Boyle, James Lee Burke, and Dennis Lehane.' Library Journal

'Rich in action and riveting characters, hugely entertaining, City on Fire brings the reader into a fable about the escalating stakes of underworld warfare, with an emotional depth that lingers long after the book is finished' Kyle Perry, author of The Bluffs

'Don Winslow's City on Fire is a masterpiece - wonderfully crafted, beautifully written, and a propulsive, authentic page-turner' Christian White, author of The Nowhere Child
