Readers’ reviews of Bandit Country, the third in the Joe Johnson series of war crimes investigation thrillers, include:
“One of the things I really admire Andrew Turpin for is how he presents his female characters. They come across as the rational, intelligent and effective co-workers of our hero.” — Amazon reviewer.
“Read this book in two days, just could not put it down. First book I have read by this author, suspenseful, exciting, believable, could have occurred. And as a person living in Northern Ireland, accurate description of the areas where the story is located.” — Amazon reviewer.
“I served two tours in NI during my time in the Army and I found your book to be very accurate in many important areas. The descriptions of attitudes amongst the locals of both sides was spot on and the way you wove the lives of actual people into the storyline was very well conceived.” — John M., Amazon reviewer.
“The author has spent a considerable amount of time getting local colour and details spot on. As a reader of the late Philip Kerr’s books these carry on the genre.” — Max B., Amazon reviewer.
“Tension in every page, and as with the first two novels would make a great film. Enjoyed every page of this book.” — Lyn, Amazon reviewer.
“I have now read all three of the Joe Johnson books and this one, like the others, has the right balance between suspense, violence, believability and excitement. This is my kind of fiction with a bit of reality and names of places I recognise making it more believable.” — Gerry, Amazon reviewer.
“Another great thriller!!” — Thomas Lamb, Amazon reviewer.
“The intricacy of the plots and how they are developed are to me the hallmarks of a great writer. That said, I love the history behind the plot of the story.” — Amazon reviewer.
“I have thoroughly enjoyed his other books, but I think that this is my favourite, indeed I think that it is one of the best books by a British author that I have read in the past couple of years. This book is very evocative for anyone who remembers the ‘Troubles’ in Ireland.” — Amazon reviewer.
“Turpin’s writing gets tighter, more compelling, and increasingly consumable with each volume. The man has it.” — Geoffrey Shaw, Amazon reviewer.
“A well thought out novel with more than a hint of truth. Shows the author knows his stuff, and makes for a gripping read. As good as the two previous novels. Thoroughly recommended.” — Amazon reviewer.
“This is the third Joe Johnson action thriller. It’s better that the others and they were great. This author is knowledgeable and very skilled in his profession. I think this is totally great book. Get the book and block out some time cause you won’t want to put it down.” — Brian, Amazon reviewer.
“I just finished Bandit Country and had to give it 5 stars. The amount of information you put into it, the amount of research you had to do, plus all the twists and turns and intricate story lines were incredible. I couldn’t put it down, it was a real page turner.” — Amazon reviewer.
“I loved this book. Enjoyed it very much. The characters came alive for me.” — Barry, Amazon reviewer.
“A tale that will suck you in with it’s twists and turns.” — Kathy, Amazon reviewer.
“I have fast become a fan of Andrew Turpin. Again, he has produced a novel that I found virtually impossible to put down once I started reading.” — Amazon reviewer.
“Another hit! Literally! Andrew Turpin is a writer who has DEFINITELY got my attention! Three books in a row to match the best of the best in the genre.” — Michael Van Den Avont, Amazon reviewer.
“I read daily, am nearly 68 years old, and have read a lot of books. In my opinion, Bandit Country is absolutely one of the best, it is fast paced, and a hard book to put down. I recommend it to anyone who looks for that type of excitement in a book.” — Dan G, Amazon reviewer.
