Critic Reviews

"A real humdinger. The best MacLean." ( Daily Mirror)
"There is a splendid audacity about Where Eagles Dare, in which a handful of British agents invade an 'impenetrable' Gestapo command post...MacLean offers a real dazzler of a thriller, with vivid action, fine set pieces of suspense and a virtuoso display of startling plot twists." ( The New York Times)

An exciting and taut thriller this one. A good storyline which makes it no wonder that it was made into a movie already. The vocal performance was nice, making the experience quite riveting.
