I am a John Corey freak and enjoy all of Nelson DeMille's offerings. My favorite is still one of his first "Up Country".

The John Corey book series are terrific! I only wish there were more.  I enjoy all of Nelson DeMille's books, but am particularly interested in the ones about John Corey.

This story was a departure from DeMille's usual fare, though it did have suspense and intrigue.  He always manages to hook me early in his tales, which make for an enjoyable read.  The search for the Holy Grail had twists and turns, along with some risks to the parties involved, so there was plenty of suspense.  Not being the most spiritual person on the planet probably made the story less believable for me than other readers.  That being said, I don't think that it's a deal breaker but the ending left me a bit "off".  Will say no more so that I don't ruin it for other readers.

I think Mr. DeMille is a great story teller and love the Corey books for the sarcasm and wit he brings to the story.  Every book I finish, makes me want him to publish another asap.  The Quest was a change of pace for him and worth reading.

After reading all of DeMille's John Cory series, the Gold Coast and The Gate a House I felt compelled to continue reading additional works from N. DeMille.  Not sure which of his previous books will be next, but I'm sure I will not be dissatisfied.  His easy manner reading, verbiage and witt keeps you coming back for the next episode of  reading entertainment.

America is fortunate to have such talented authors and this reader finds the novels of author Nelson DeMille are simply incredible. Radiant Angel is his 17th novel, and the 7th of the John Corey novels. I purchase DeMille novels the moment they are released and then let anticipation take over before reading.

John Corey is one my favorite characters. With his police background and recent years doing contract work for one or several of the alphabet agencies, he brings incredible humor into his work which tends to be solving and then fighting his way to victory over whatever group wants to do harm to America. John is a man that does not believe in political correctness.

The danger in Radiant Agent is quickly seen as Russia brings us back into the cold war. The problem this time is that the Russian president Vladimir Putin is the maddest of the mad when looking at Russian/Soviet presidents over the years. He is so dangerous that even the top military generals of the U.S.A. clearly state that Russia is their biggest concern.

Radiant Angel did not get much rest once I began reading. And as the plot thickens, one realizes that this could really happen. Yes it is a novel, but then again. It is simply too real.

This has been my best novel read in 2015 and simply a stunning story.

Very entertaining and realistic.  I loved the cop jargon throughout.  John Corey is right up there with Jack Reacher.  I intend to keep reading his adventures as long as DeMille keeps it coming.

If your a Nelson DeMille fan, this book will not disappoint.  Not quite full throttle DeMille, but it can tide you over.

Nelson DeMille is one of the true novelists. He writes novels and not  novelised scripts, nor books for scripts. This one is a pure detective  story with noir hints as to the description of his cha- racters, while  turning into an adventure somewhe- re at the end, falling into a trap for  this latter (we'll talk about it later). Taking into conside- ration the  above, his plot is not original as conceived, but with some interesting  twists and uncovered slowly to its every piece or bit. In some points  though, he seems widening and he beco- mes very slow, but his point is  character wise, not that we readers can't pinpoint this chatter. From a  point and on (the ending chapters) the plot becomes "how will it  end" and not "what will hap- pen", due to the adventure  element that takes away the unexpected hint. As to his characters, DeMille  illuminates the main hero and you come to love him: he's cynical, humorous,  macho and most masculine, hidding very well his sensitive side, trying to  resemble to Mickey Spilaine's Mike Ham- mer (and thus the noir element).  Ten the most at- tention is given to the women characters and all the  others become decorating characters, receiv- ing from the author the  respective attention. Cha- racterisations are deep, but very much focused  and do not turn the book to a heavy, psychological de- tective noir story.  And DeMille's speach is of a pure novelist: picturous, but not overburdened  and to the point, witty at times and real. The reader is not tired by the  speech, but by the widening a- forementioned. So the scenes flow, not  fastly but flow; the tempo being also of a noir novel (or film if you  prefer). The adventure trap he falls into is the one of the "adventure  couples": the sidekick never stand aside and appears like a Greek  ancient tragedy God, to save his friend/ mate. It's a very complete book,  finally, a true novel with all its pros and cons, but these minor details  fail it from being a perfect book. And it is a pity for DeMille, who shows  exactly what he can achieve by his writting.

The first Nelson DeMille book I read was the Gatehouse which was such a treat I wanted to read more by this author. I finally found The Gold Coast which provided the background for the characters of this two book series. Next I got hooked on the John Corey Series right out of the gate with Plum Island. The side comments by ' John ' through out the series adds humor and personl touches that enhance the story line. Looking forward to book 7!

I am a huge fan of DeMille and, of course, John Corey. This is probably my favorite of the Corey series. Humor, suspense, government conspiracies...what's not to love?

Nelson DeMille is one of my favorite authors. In fact his writings helped inspire me to write mystery-thrillers of my own.

Wild Fire is another in the series with John Corey, the smart-mouth protagonist off snappy dialog that DeMille is so good at.. And, per usual, DeMille delivers with a mystery-thriller page turner capped with a big ending to boot. That said, John Corey's continual utterances of the word "right" in dialog gets tiresome, as it does in other DeMille books regardless of the protagonist. Also, Wild Fire, as with other of DeMille's works, couldbenefit with a 20% trimming. These are nits though, Wild Fire is well worth a read.

DeMille is in a class by himself, this is my first book of his to read but definastely will not be the last.  I am looking forward to reading all his books and see if the others can compare.

There is not a book of DeMille's that I have not thoroughly enjoyed, & this one included. I have read all his work from the very earliest ones, and he has a particularly great ability to get the reader to like his characters, and make their experiences believable. A great way to lose oneself in fiction for a couple of nights.
