Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Edge of Eternity was massively disappointing: the continuing development of the principal characters lapsed into the political correctness of the author's ultra liberal mantra. Mr. Follett's usual meticulous research came up short in respect to any American conservative president, concentrating character dialog on perceived missteps, while ignoring any and all achievements of such men as Nixon, Reagan, and Bush. According to the author, based on his character's meandering, unconnected, unsubstantiated logic, American presidents and policy positions over 50 years had no impact on the USSR's eventual collapse. The collapse of the Soviet empire was solely due to Gorbachev's heroic liberalization of the USSR; what nonsense. The first two books were well written and researched; Mr. Follett "dropped the ball" on his third and final tome.
