A cinematic tale of globe-troting adventure and hugely enjoyable cold war espionage.

A new William Boyd novel is always a pleasure, and this is a read that will keep you completely hooked to the very last page.
Financial Times
A novel satisfyingly stuffed with incident, Cold War history, romance and any number of mysteries
The Spectator
Masterly. Boyd takes such obvious, infectious pleasure in telling his story, bounding along just in front of the reader, scattering clues and red herrings. I’m not sure that there’s a more reliably entertaining novelist working today.
The Observer
A master storyteller

Boyd is abundantly talented at capturing life’s disconnections

Boyd is brilliant at writing these great sweeping books. He is at the top of his game: he really does combine really fine writing with absolutely riveting storytelling.

Boyd's signature investigation of human connections is always compelling. It’s one of those books that’s kept me thinking.

Engaging, intelligent and deeply satisfying. I rate him one of our greatest living novelists

Gabriel's Moon reads like a classic British spy novel, resonating with echoes of Buchan and Greene. Boyd writes with a limber sensuality, drawing the reader, word by word, into his web. A delight from start to finish.
Parker Bilal
I enjoyed it hugely. Boyd is one of my favourite authors – he never disappoints

I was utterly captivated by Gabriel’s Moon. A spy novel with heart, William Boyd takes the reader on a thrilling journey of espionage, secrets and obsession. An absolute must-read this autumn.

One of our best contemporary storytellers

Simply the best realistic storyteller of his generation

The finest storyteller of his generation
