Publisher Description

#1 New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva presents "a first-rate thriller" (Rocky Mountain News) featuring art restorer—and reluctant spy—Gabriel Allon.

After an explosion in Rome destroys the Israeli embassy, Gabriel Allon makes a disturbing discovery—the existence of a dossier in terrorist hands that strips away his secrets, and lays bare his history. Drawn into the heart of a service he’d once forsaken, Allon finds himself stalking a master terrorist across a bloody landscape generations in the making. But soon, Allon will wonder who is stalking whom.

When the final showdown comes, it won’t be Allon alone who is threatened with destruction. For it is not his history alone that has been exposed...

The Path to Closure

It’s 2022 and I’m reading the Gabriel Allon series in order for the first time. This book, The Prince of Fire, is the 6th.

I didn’t mind the long backstories and setup in Prince of Fire. I enjoy the quasi-historical motivations of all relevant sides. However, I thought the payoff should have been better.

It’s also unpleasant to deal with the emotional roller-coaster presented within the Team Chiara vs. Team Leah narrative. I wish we could pick an interest and move on.

Additionally, the story and endings in this series are starting to feel formulaic.

Tragedy + Back Story + Operation Setup + Shamron/Lev meddling + Operational Failure + Gabriel beating + Gabriel Escape + Rushed, Unsatisfying Ending = Story

Overall a good book, but I’d rank it 5th out of the first 6 in the series- only in front of the first.
