Summary: David Morrell's best novel
Comment: Though his more recent novels have been an enormous disappointment, "Covenant of the Flame," is, in my opinion, David Morrell's greatest novel. It is everything a thriller should be: intense, exciting, interesting and intelligently written. I, literally, could not put this book down. If ever a page turner was penned, this book is certainly it. I usually don't re-read novels, but "Covenant..." is, without doubt, the exception. I highly recommend not only this book but also all the pre-"Assumed Identity" ones which are also excellent. "Assumed Identity" signaled, as far as I'm concerned, the beginning of the end. As a once die-hard Morrell fan, I am more than a little saddened by the turn his writing has taken these past few years.

Summary: ENDING SAVES THIS ONE
Comment: Daid Morrell's books are full of action and thrills but this one from 1973 is a little on the tame side. BUT if you are interested in the save the planet theme you will find this story very good and you may even agree with action taken by the heretics or you might like the beliefs of the members of the Inquistion. WHAT?? Heretics? Inquisition? In this day and age? Lest you think Morrell has lost his touch, wait until you come to the fantastic ending ! The story plods along with all sorts of earth saving actions and the leading character, Tess Drakewho works for Mother Earth magazine finds herself in the middle of all sorts of attacks on her life and those whom she loves. The mystery surrounding all this dates back to pre=Christian history of the Mithraism movement and if you don't want to test your faith don't read this one 1 The action really heats up when Tess and her police lt. friend find themselves aboard Air Force 2 headed for Spain. Who can save them now? You won't put the book down until the very end which will leave you wondering about your soul and the future of all mankind and this planet earth we so glibly ride.

Summary: Excellent pleasure read
Comment: Loved this book! Have recommended it to everyone I know that likes to read. This book actually got me back into reading for pleasure. I was so enthralled by this book that I've read every David Morrell book published. I wish that he would go back to formats like The Covenant of the Flame for his inspiration instead of his new material. Any of Morrell's early publications great reading material.
