Art restorer and sometime spy Gabriel Allon is sent to Vienna to discover the truth behind a bombing that gravely injured an old friend, but while there he encounters something that turns his world upside down. It is a face --- a face that feels hauntingly familiar, a face that chills him to the bone.

While desperately searching for answers, Allon will uncover a portrait of evil stretching across sixty years and thousands of lives --- and into his own personal nightmares ...

This Is The Real Daniel Silva

Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2021

Verified Purchase

I am reading through Daniel Silva's Gabriel Allon series for the third time. Normally I would get books from the library, but my library is closed because of the pandemic. I am purchasing Silva's books in paperback now. They are the only books I will spend money on. This novel and all of his early novels are what kept me waiting for July when a new Daniel Silva book would come out. His writing in these earlier novels is exquisite. The storytelling, characters, detailed scenic descriptions, and periodic comic relief in the midst of the tragedies described are what makes Daniel Silva's novels stand alone. Death in Vienna is one of his best. The way the story begins with my beloved Eli in danger is story telling at its best. I have cried, laughed, and stared at the words in unbelief throughout this novel. Silva just captures you and draws you into the world of Gabriel and Ari until you just want to know that all will be well and that all will survive. I am writing this review because re-reading Silva's books remind me of his brilliance but causes me to wonder what happened to his writing in his last three books, in particular, the last one - The Order. This last book is nothing like the Daniel Silva's writing that I know and admire. He became preachy, hurried in his story line, and there is practically no characterization at all. What happened? I will continue to read Silva's books because I love Gabriel, Ari and all of the characters. But, please Daniel, take your time, go back and read your first works, see the detail, see the descriptions, see the way you build your characters until we feel like we know them so well. Come back to us Daniel. We need Gabriel and Ari and Eli and all the others to take us into their world and let us see the universe through their eyes and go places we may never get to travel to. Your writing is too precious to lose its way. Come back. Bring your writing back. I'm still a fan and will remain so. July 2021 is coming. And...thank you for giving us Gabriel and Ari.

Gabriel always manages to capture my attention. This adventure was less bloody than others, and more introspective. It was a nice change of pace. As the world turns and he regains his foothold it is interesting, his distancing himself from the past.

This is the sixth Gabriel Allon novel that I've read. I read two recents ones and was so impressed that I went back to the beginning and I'm now reading Allon's adventures in order. Well, I didn't think Silva could top "The Confessor," but "A Death in Vienna" does indeed top it. This novel takes on an immense theme --- the horrors of the Holocaust, and the immense debt owed to ALL its victim by ALL of us --- if we are ever to recover from the inhumanity and cruelty of the Second World War, and move on to a world in which such ghastly horrors can never again happen. And the author treats this immense theme with dignity, feeling, restraint, and wisdom. The book is beautifully written. Yes, it's "a spy novel" and there are inevitable touches of the romance and artificiality inevitable in good page turning spy stories....and this is indeed a page turner!....but this book is infinitely more. It way transcends the limitations of a genre. I recommend it heartily to anyone who enjoys fine writing, a thrilling plot, and who craves a deep vitally important theme as well as terrific storytelling. I love Silva's characters, particularly Ari Shamron, and Gabriel Allon, the enigmatic and every human hero. I love his vocabulary, his phrasing, his use of adverbs, his subtle way of revealing the thoughts and feelings of his people. I love the way he describes the cities and towns and rooms through which his people move. But I think I love more than anything else the unfolding tale of these Israeli spies and the great historical and religious legacy that informs their particular struggle. Just a great book. Loved it.

“I deal with the real world, not the world as I would like it to be.”

Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2018

Verified Purchase

“A Death in Vienna” is Daniel Silva’s 4th book in his Gabriel Allon series, and #s 2-4 form their own sort of mini trilogy dealing with the “unfinished business of the Holocaust”. The aftermath of the horrors of the Nazis, the anti-Semitism they stirred up, and its place in our current world was the subject of those three books, and “A Death in Vienna” is the best of the three.
This text, like the others in the series follow the exploits of art restorer and reluctant Israeli agent Gabriel Allon and although the tried and true formula for the series is present here, of the five books in the series I have read thus far this one is the most cerebral. The truths and horrors it presents are chilling when one considers that anti-Semitism is openly flaunted at times in the halls of the United Nations today.
Mr. Silva used real life events (such as the Birkenau Death March, and the efforts of Bishop Hudal to aide fleeing war criminals) and Holocaust survivor’s testimony to very disturbing effect in this novel, more so than in his previous. A harrowing chapter that details the Birkenau Death March is sobering and necessarily unpleasant reading. He manages to capture the essence of the Nazi’s motivation for this ridiculous last-ditch effort to hide the facts of the Holocaust and the long lasting effects on those who survived it.
The Gabriel Allon series is quick page turning reading, and I enjoy them from time to time. I will pick up the fifth book in the series soon.

Three years ago, Daniel Silva was a recommended author by a friend, who we were staying with on a kibbutz, whose son's name happens to be Alon. Since then I have read the entire collection of Gabriel Allon's heroic intrigues since then. I have enjoyed every one of them. My first and only visit to Israel and these stories help inform my sense of anxiety about the prospect of peace in the middle east.

Very good

Reviewed in Germany on March 28, 2016

Verified Purchase

I really enjoyed reading this thriller. At the beginning I was skeptical because there was a lot of description and very little action, but it turned out to be a very thrilling and exiting book.
There is only one thing I didn’t like. That was the depiction of Austria as a place full of Nazis. I live in Vienna and as far as I’m aware of we do not have a nazi-sheltering government or justice. Of course there are some far-right groups, but that is not a problem that is existing exclusively in Austria and Germany (KKK in the US?).
Nevertheless, I really liked a death in Vienna and I will keep on reading the Gabriel Allon series!
