.I.S. Berry | THE PEACOCK AND THE SPARROW’s debut deserves all the awards. It’s the literary, thinking-(wo)man’s espionage novel I’d been waiting for.
And the last act absolutely rips. Read it.

The other book that I finished recently and highly recommend is 'The Peacock and the Sparrow' by I.S. Berry | THE PEACOCK AND THE SPARROW. It's a gritty, harrowing espionage novel steeped in realism. Having read nonfiction books like 'Legacy of Ashes' and 'The Forever War,' it just rang true. 1/5
