Best spy fiction on the planet
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I confess that I often don't remember each and every Matt Helm book specifically, particularly after the first three. But I will say that I have been a fan of Matt Helm since I discovered him in high school, and I own every Matt Helm novel. When it comes to realism and grit, the Matt Helm books are the best spy fiction in the trade. Helm is tough, mean and cynical--and those are his best qualities. And yet there is just enough of the hopeful romantic in him--that his actions can help the world--that he grows on you. You really can start anywhere with Matt Helm and not feel like you're missing anything, but I would definitely suggest beginning with Death of A Citizen.

Been reading Donald Hamilton since I was a child. I love the Matt Helm series.
Unexpected twists

I enjoy all the Matt Helm books, but this is one of my favorites. Matt has to keep a lady scientist safe from the people who have been shadowing her and many other important people. How better to keep a watchful eye on the target than by marrying her? Meanwhile, he is faced with the "assistance" of a well-meaning but fumbling young naval officer.The suspenseful plot is filled with adventure and twists, some of which tie back to previous books. As always, Donald Hamilton tells a good tale.
A case of "who's shadowing who?"

Matt Helm has to marry the most unlikely prospect in order to keep an eye on her. This great Donald Hamilton mystery includes a complicated plot to assasinate top American people and a special twist as Matt finds out who the "shadower" really is. If you like action, mystery, terrific plots, and realistic stories -- Donald Hamilton is a must. Another great story.
