Bulgaria, 1934. A young man is murdered by the local fascists. His brother, Khristo Stoianev, is recruited into the NKVD, the Soviet secret intelligence service, and sent to Spain to serve in its civil war. Warned that he is about to become a victim of Stalin's purges, Khristo flees to Paris. Night Soldiers masterfully re-creates
the European world of 1934-45: the struggle between Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia for Eastern Europe, the last desperate gaiety of the beau monde in 1937 Paris, and guerrilla operations with the French underground in 1944. Night Soldiers is a scrupulously researched panoramic novel, a work on a grand scale.

After several attempts at reading “Night Soldiers” I finally gave up.


I followed Khristo’s journey from Bulgaria to Russia, then to Spain and when I came to France I gave up for the first time, this was a couple of month ago. I tried to read the book on several occasions, but I found it depressive and extremely boring. Finally I gave it a thought and came to the conclusion that “Night Soldiers” was nothing special when Khristo was in Bulgaria, the same in Russia and again in Spain. So would the book change while him being in France? Probably not!
People who want to read about the life of a Bulgarian spy (for the Russians) before WWII should give this book a try, but if you are looking for suspense I suggest looking elsewhere.

I guess I don’t qualify as a proper reviewer so the 3-stars are just symbolic.

cheers
