Summary: the best piece of fiction Buckley ever wrote
Comment: Saving the Queen is the best of the Blackford Oakes spy novels. It's the only one that is light hearted and totaly unlike Buckley's columns. Blacky is at his best in this fun and exciting spy caper. What a shame this delightful book is out of print.
Rating: 5
Summary: Wonderful Read
Comment: This is, without a doubt, one of the best spy novels (and series) that one can and will ever read. Mr. Buckley creates Blackford, a most wonderfully swave and gorgeous character, who makes the book a joy to read. I am a big James Bond fan, but I found that while the movies are great, the books are mostly dull. If a Blackford Oakes book is this great, I can only speculate how spectacular a movie would be. I have now finished all the books in the series, and would definately recomend them, regardless Democrat or Republican. I actually cried after reading one (The Story of Henri Todd), but please, dear reader, wait and read them in order, they are even more enjoyable that way.
Rating: 4
Summary: A fun spy novel.
Comment: Blackford Oakes, CIA operative, is sent to Great Britian to track down a spy who is passing nuclear secrets to the Soviets. It's his first mission, and it's definitely an unusual one (OK, all of Blacky's missions are unusual). I've read all of Buckley's Blackford Oakes series and each is fun and entertaining. Each details an interesting theory/fantasy into a particular piece of history; each seems fairly plausible. I recommend all of WFB's spy novels. Read one and you'll find that you're hooked.
