Praise for Prisoners of the Castle

“Macintyre so seamlessly fuses so many different accounts that their compilation creates something more profound than a simple escape yarn.”The Washington Post

“In retelling the story of Colditz, [Macintyre] makes it his own. [An] entertaining yet objectiveand often-moving account.”The Wall Street Journal
 
“Not since Ian Fleming and John le Carré has a spy writer so captivated readers.”The Hollywood Reporter

“Macintyre details the famous escapes, but, just as importantly, gives a vivid picture of everyday life in what became Germany’s most elite prison. Set aside a few hours for this book, since once you start reading, you will not stop until the last page.”AirMail

“Riveting . . . This is another engrossing tale of WWII intrigue from a master of the genre.”Publishers Weekly

“A mixture of derring-do and a vivid, warts-and-all portrayal of the iconic castle.”Kirkus Reviews
