ReviewsSimply amazing...I Am Pilgrim is a fantastic read and needs to be on everyone's summer must-read list., Rendition yourself into a pulsating thriller that never lets up as it carries the hero and the reader on an ever more desperate race between time and an all too plausible disaster for the world we live in.

(Grade: A), Hayes is a master storyteller, and I Am Pilgrim is an amazing accomplishment...the perfect summer read...it's actually greater than the hype...can't recommend it any more highly., The narrative is thrilling: the tension tightens with action...It's a murder mystery, an illuminating account of contemporary international politics and a study of an unusual man......An excellent thriller which as a first novel is really remarkable., [I Am Pilgrim] is like a Jack Higgins novel by way of John Le Carr with more than a dash of Charles Dickens., THRILLER OF THE WEEK. Delivers thrills and spills...A full tilt mix of Homeland , The Wire and The Bourne Ultimatum. , Pilgrim turns out to be the most fascinating thriller hero I've encountered since Trevanian's legendary Nicolai Hel... Bracing, blisteringly original, and hopefully not the last time we see both Hayes and Pilgrim., "The storytelling and a truly intriguing protagonist make "I Am Pilgrim" a contender for best-of-the-year lists.", 'I Am Pilgrim' is [a] gripping debut novel, which pits a brilliant intelligence operative against an equally brilliant terrorist. Weighing in at over 600 pages, you get your money's worth and more with this thriller., If, like me, it's been a while since you read a truly compelling thriller, this is the book for you...absolutely compelling reading., Debut novelist Hayes brings well-refined storytelling chops to...[good] entertainment for readers with a penchant for mayhem, piles of bodies and a lethal biochemical agent or two., Hayes delivers muscular prose, sniper-round accurate dialogue and enough superb and original plotting to fill three volumes. He balances it all with the dexterity of the accomplished storyteller that he so obviously is. I Am Pilgrim is simply one of the best suspense novels I've read in a long time., Whatever you're doing right now, stand up and turn around. Take a good look at the edge of your seat. That's where you'll be clinging when you read I Am Pilgrim., I Am Pilgrim features great character development and an expansive, ambitious storyline as it sets the standard for the post-9/11 spy thriller., I am Pilgrim is a great, gripping thrill ride of a novel (that still feels grounded in reality). If you're looking for an action thriller/spy story for the beach, Pilgrim is a winner., Massive in many senses, but none more so than its ability to exert a vice-like grip on the reader....Destined to be spy thriller of the year., Mr. Hayes's globe-trotting book has more kicks, twists and winks than anything of its dusty genre has provided in a long time. You will be happily surprised to find a new thriller franchise with brains to match its brawn., [I Am Pilgrim] is like a Jack Higgins novel by way of John Le Carré with more than a dash of Charles Dickens., ''Dude, freak out. That's my new Gone Girl . Gone Girl was the last book that I couldn't put down. Seriously, email me when you read it. You'll be five chapters in, and you'll look up and be like, 'Dude!''', Tom Clancy meets Robin Cook in a thriller that should find a place in many beach bags this summer., I Am Pilgrim is a 21st century thriller: a high concept plot, but with finely drawn protagonists. The plot twists and turns like a python in a sack. Thestyle is visceral, gritty and cinematic...A satisfying and ambitious book, written with skill and verve.

An unexpected adventure
I am an admittedly stubborn reader and rarely venture into thrillers. I read this book on a recommendation and am so glad I did. It is written brilliantly and is quite the ride from beginning to finish. There are some tropes, certainly, but I found them forgivable as the book makes up for it in intelligence and character development. I would recommend to lovers of all genres!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
