Recalling Dickens and other 19th century fiction... Riveting. * Sunday Times * What he does so well is to people his plots with clearly defined characters... He makes it riveting. * Mirror * A tense, thoughtful, absorbing read. * The Times * As usual Grisham is fantastically skilful at delineating the procedural ins and outs of the legal and business worlds in such a way that, as the reader, you feel rather clever yourself. * Daily Express * Reads both like an inspirational debut and a brilliant career masterpiece... Technically the book is a tour de force, the characters perfectly balanced and precisely drawn, the forward-thrusting chapters sculpted in size and rhythm... The Appeal is a blatant page turner but I guarantee you will hate reaching the end. * Sunday Express *
