‘I don’t usually write Amazon reviews of books…but when I do I just had to’.

This is such a case. I found Daniel Silva after thoroughly exhausting first Lee Child, then John Sandford, then Preston and Child, and lastly Michael Connelly. I literally stumbled upon Silva and I am so glad I did! House of Spies is his 20th installment in the on-going Gabriel Alon canon. There is something about the 20th book in any series (I am thinking of Patrick O’Brian’s 20th book, his “farewell to arms”), some ‘je ne sais quoi’.

In any event, after reading all of the preceding books after they were published, I finally caught up with the maestro and had to (1) actually wait for a book to be published, and (2) buy it new (for gosh-sakes). So when my crisp new copy arrived last week, with its beautiful black and gold dustcover, I saw it as a fine old wine meant to be sipped not chugged.

At this point in both my reading of Silva and in Silva’s own writing of these books I come to the Alon Saga as to old friends and home. By now I know all of the Barak team, and Graham Seymour and Adrian Carter, and of course the inimitable Julian Isherwood. And the new guy on the block is back, Chris Keller. But so is that mastermind villain par excellence, Saladin!

I’ve settled into a slow reading pattern each evening before bed. I’m now on chapter 39 and a bit past midway. The stage is has been meticulously and patiently set, as if Silva himself is also “sipping” a fine wine; and now we are truly ready to set off in pursuit of the prey. I won’t say “I can’t wait” because…I can! I will!

And just to second another reviewer as I close, no, Gabriel is not going to sit in his office and let us all down. Just as his mentor Ari Shamron was, and just as Ari intended, Gabreil will be a “working director” – a field director. And we are all the better for it.

Post script: I’ve now finished the book and without any spoilers, I do want to amend my review. My previous remarks stand until I got to the climactic ending pages. At that point what had been a carefully crafted and believable plot became sloppy and unbelievable. This change-over seemed to me to be done solely for the purpose of having Alon once again be the “action-adventure” hero that Silva must think his fans demand. He even repeats himself with the last scene at a well-known landmark in downtown London complete with Mikhail as his sidekick in a blazing guns finale. Only Gabriel could have pulled off this “saving of the day”? Seemed a stretch to me and left a bad taste in my mouth after an otherwise satisfying book.

House of Spies audiobook in series Gabriel Allon

Another great book by Daniel Silva! I call his novels “literary crack” because they’re so addicting. Heart stopping suspense and action. I’m so upset that people have been rating his book with only one or two stars because they don’t like the price of the book – if you don’t like the price don’t buy the book – get it from the library. This is a wonderful book by a great author – if you like international thrillers this is for you. You won’t be disappointed!

Audiobook House of Spies by Daniel Silva

This book basically opens right at the start of a deadly terrorist attack, and though I have to admit it’s not an overly complex book (more on this later), it sucked me in almost instantly. The story is told from multiple POV’s, all third person. They were all enjoyable, but my favorite was Keller, who reminded me a lot of John Clark from Tom Clancy’s books. Keller is the bad-guy-turned-good, special black ops type, who has a natural tendency toward violence, but who solves situations with speed and precision. Gabriel as usual was great, but I’d have loved to get more of Keller in this book. Anytime he showed up the action and tension intensified.

Pacing was well done in my opinion. Not every scene was an action scene. There was a lot of the actual investigation mixed in, which I think made for a great balance between action, danger, and intrigue. The ending was grim, but extremely satisfying. This book was an easy read. It isn’t overly complex. Everything happens about like you expect, but you don’t really care because the overall ride is worth it. I read it in one sitting.

Audio House of Spies narrated by George Guidall

House of Spies is one of Daniel Silva’s finest works – and that’s really saying something. It follows the conclusion of Silva’s last book, in which Washington DC was devastated by an ISIS attack, with a string of ISIS attacks in London and Paris.

The Israeli spy and now chief of its intelligence service, Gabriel Allon, enlists the help of Christopher Keller in an elaborate plot to hunt down the man known as Saladin, an Iraqi who is responsible for planning and funding the attacks.

It’s a phenomenal read, and the last 100 pages or so will leave you breathless.

And beyond this one book, I actually think Daniel Silva will be remembered as one of the most important authors of his generation. His thrillers are literary quality – and House of Spies is no exception – with lyrical prose, brilliant plotting, and a perceptive wisdom about the modern world and what ails it.

This is the 17th book in Daniel Silva’s popular series featuring art restorer and Israeli agent, Gabriel Allon. The appearance of a new Silva book is always a midsummer treat and this one is no exception. Allon is now head of “The Office” and as such you might not expect to find him on operational missions. But of course, knowing Gabriel, he won’t be sitting behind a desk for very long. This stories are always highly topical and this one focuses on the attempt to assassinate the head of a terror network responsible for atrocities carried out in London. Daniel Silva’s extensive research shines through as the complexities of the modern world. As always, the plot demands careful investigation and recruitment of assets and these are well-balanced with the action sequences. Many of the familiar characters from the previous novels are here (including the Corsican goat) and it is a joy to spend more time with them. They seem three-dimensional, flawed and interesting. In other words, real. As always, there is lots of travel and lots of places to visit in your mind’s eye. I particularly enjoyed the descriptions of Morocco this time complete with jinns.
If you haven’t read any of these books, you could give yourself a huge treat and start with the first one (The Kill Artist). The House of Spies can be read as a stand-alone novel, although the plot is certainly linked to last year’s “The Black Widow” so you might want to read that one first.
I am very much looking forward to next year’s outing for Allon already!
