Critics Review
This is Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid on autoload. Winslow’s stripped-down prose is a revelation
This is Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid on autoload. Winslow’s stripped-down prose is a revelation – Stephen KingRejoice - Don is back on the drugs … Winslow has few equals * Independent *Winslow on rip-roaring form, his most stylish, pacy and blood-soaked novel yet … A brilliantly clever game of cat and mouse … Vibrant, stylish and captivating … A true thriller – Henry Sutton * Mirror *Savages is a wild ride…The language is limber and lean, the pace adrenalin-fuelled and the killers downright terrifying … Will linger with you long after the final page * Time Out *A frighteningly convincing depiction of big-time drug cartels at work – John HarveyUtterly impossible to put down. Savages is, bar none, the best novel I have read in years – Christopher Reich, author of Rules of DeceptionDon Winslow’s best book yet – Janet Evanovich…a thoughtful, prescient satire on the war on drugs, packed with neat twists and funny-horrid set pieces. The characters stay with you, too * Guardian *Savages […] is both a gripping heist story, and a remarkably astute history of organised crime in Orange County, from the 1960s to the present. – Guy Adams * Independent *
