Pompeii by Robert Harris
Through the eyes of four characters - a young engineer, an adolescent girl, a corrupt millionaire and an elderly scientist - Robert Harris brilliantly recreates a luxurious world on the brink of destruction.
Harris is a writer of integrity who does not seek refuge in postmodernist nonsense..He knows how to tell a story and achieves page-turningreadability without effort. * Frank McLynn, Daily Express *
Explosive stuff, indeed - and, yes, it goes with a bang. * Tom Holland, Daily Telegraph *
The depth of research in this book is staggering...Pompeii is indeed a blazing blockbuster. * Simon Brett, Daily Mail *
It is hard to imagine a more thorough-goingly enjoyable thriller read * The Sunday Times *
Harris had me imaginatively surrounded. I am lost in admiration at his energy and skill * Boris Johnson, Mail on Sunday *
