'Horrifying and insanely gripping. It is an epic game of cajones played out against the beauty of the natural world ... such crime writing deserves nothing less than a Pulitzer Prize' Evening Standard

'The [Cartel] trilogy is one of the great literary achievements of the century ... Winslow's works is witty and thrilling as well as righteous ... we need writers who bear witness to the truth as unflinchingly as Winslow' Daily Telegraph, Books of the Year

'A furious, impassioned novel ... a powerful - and painful - journey through a contemporary version of hell. Rarely has hell been so compelling' Washington Post, Books of the Year

'A modern classic of striking power that turns the sordid and murderous mayhem of the cocaine wars and the baroque court politics of the Cartel narcos drug lords into a narrative of great grandeur that illuminates human character in the way Shakespeare or Tolstoy does... a terrifying, vicious world that reveals much about American politics, policing and Trumpian corruption today' Simon Sebag Montefiore

"A stunning and timely conclusion to Don Winslow's drug-war trilogy. . . This is a book for dark, rudderless times, an immersion into fear and chaos. . . You don't read these books; you live in them." - New York Times

"Mr. Winslow writes gripping action sequences and wields statistics like a crusading journalist. Grand in scope, audacious in its political portraits, convincing in its socio-economic arguments and humane to the core, The Border is not only a formidable thriller but an important and provocative work." - Wall Street Journal

"I'm totally swept up. You can't ask for more emotionally moving entertainment. . . Everyone in America-left, right, and center-should read this book. It's social fiction to rival Tom Wolfe and John Steinbeck. Focused, angry, suspenseful, occasionally hilarious, always hugely entertaining. . . A harsh, important book." - Stephen King

"These angry, often heartbreaking books stand as the definitive fictional rendering of an ongoing modern tragedy. . . . The Border guides us through a savage, wholly believable world. The result is a powerful-and painful-journey through a contemporary version of hell. Rarely has hell been so compelling." - Washington Post

"If Dostoevsky slung dope, he might have written the fierce morality tale that Winslow began with The Power of the Dog . . . Truth compacted into narrative by way of meticulous research. . . Eerily prescient and scathing. . . quite simply the most important crime saga in modern literature." - Arizona Republic

"The Border is intricate, mean and swift, a sprawling canvass of characters. . . Granular detail and sharp dialogue have made his drug war trilogy propulsive and compelling. . . The stories unravel broken lives caught in a mesmerizing mosaic fueled by addiction and haunted by bloodshed." - Los Angeles Times

"A landmark moment in crime fiction. . . . It is Winslow's remarkable ability to translate the utter fiasco of our 50-year War on Drugs into the most wrenching of human stories, tragedy seemingly without end, that gives this novel its unparalleled power." - Booklist [starred review]

"Peak page-turner. . . Will rattle your soul in those early-morning hours as you come face to face with all the corruption and depravity in the world. . . The crime-fiction equivalent of The Stand-the kind of compulsive Stephen King-esque epic that captivates and horrifies." - Globe & Mail

"The Cartel and The Force were high water marks in the genre in terms of ambition and reach, and Winslow has excelled again. . . This is Winslow at his sensational best." - Financial Times

"Don Winslow's epic trilogy about America's longest war comes to a powerful and troubling conclusion." - Associated Press

"With clear-eyed determination and an almost Shakespearean grasp of human nature, Winslow takes readers on an unforgettable journey." - Publishers Weekly [starred review]
