Reviews

A Waterstones Best Books of 2023: Crime and Thriller
There are moments that hit the heights of Winslow’s brilliant and brutal Cartel trilogy.’ The Sun
Already described as ‘The Godfather for our generation’, this is storytelling at its inspiring, epic best, and it feels like a movie in the making.’ Daily Mail
‘Maintains the fierce trajectory of its predecessor… With this new sequence, Winslow’s epic The Power of the Dog is acquiring an equally accomplished successor.’ Financial Times
‘it’s still the action scenes that stand out, and one of them, a showdown in the desert, is as powerful as anything in Winslow’s majestic Cartel trilogy’ Sunday Times
‘City of Dreams picks up exactly where City on Fire left off, and the result is even sharper, funnier, and more brilliant than its predecessor … but Winslow makes this Aeneid-inspired tale soar—sometimes from epic to venal, or from poignant to comical—and it makes the wait for the third book unbearable.’ Amazon Best Books of April 2023
‘CITY OF DREAMS is a crime classic. Winslow's best book, by far. You won't put it down’ Stephen King
‘Winslow should not be allowed to write so brilliantly. It’s unfair on all other authors!’ Peter James
"Don Winslow is one of three living crime writers that I am hopelessly addicted to. City Of Dreams is a mesmerizing coast-to-coast crime epic. Danny Ryan is a good guy, a bad guy, a wonderfully complicated, unforgettable human. City of Dreams is part of a trilogy but you can start anywhere. So go ahead, start." James Patterson
