The Day of the Jackal

The Day of the Jackal by Frederick Forsyth

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Enjoyed going back to one of the first books in this genre of political thrillers. It's obvious how much Forsyth influenced later writers. The meticulous attention to detail makes the book seem more like non-fiction than fiction. Even though I knew how the book ended (in fact, I may have read it years ago, and I'm certain that I saw the movie), it had me riveted.
