Rezensionen
PRAISE FOR ABYSS:

'Grabs from the get-go... as if this were the very best fiction' Daily Mail

'A brilliant, beautifully constructed and thrilling re-assessment of the most perilous moment in history' Daily Telegraph

'Frightening but hopelessly addictive' The Times

'Magisterial... chilling'Daily Express

'Brilliantly told... compelling... Hastings has cleverly woven the story together from all sides describing them in dramatic, almost hour by hour detail... this is a scary book. Hastings sees little evidence that today's leaders understand each other any better than they did in 1962' Sunday Times

'Deeply researched, incisively intelligent and compulsively readable. Abyss is as tight and smart account as any account and will earn pride of place even on a shelf already packed with books about the crisis' TLS

'A gripping retelling of those weeks of brinkmanship, reckless gambles, gung-ho generals and a thuggish USSR leader bullying a 'weak president'' Sun

'Superb... reads like a thriller as the gripping drama of the Cold War power politics plays out behind closed doors in Washington, Moscow and Havana' Daily Mail

'Hastings lays bare, with chilling clarity, the ease with which political theatre and bluster could well have escalated into a scenario of mutually assured destruction' Observer
