"Gripping....powerful." (The New York Times)
"[Follett] is so good at plotting a story, even one that takes on such a complex topic such as the World War II era. That's what makes Winter of the World so hard to put down. You want to know what happens next." (The Associated Press)
"A consistently compelling portrait of a world in crisis." (The Washington Post)
