Why read it?
2 authors picked Never as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Never took me along with two characters, leaders in their countries, who play on the global stage politically and how close to the edge of atomic disaster we actually are. I felt I was living the dangers along with them.
Never combines it all. This fast-paced, hold-your-breath thriller features a young intelligence operative, a spy, a spymaster from China, and a US President falling in the polls as a new election nears.
This story is frighteningly realistic as the protagonists struggle to prevent the next world war. Chemical weapons are stockpiled and prepared for use. Readers are thrust into a true-to-life scenario here the world teeters on the brink of destruction.
From C.A.'s list on geopolitical thrillers from today’s headlines.
