Getting Out - Amazon Customer Reviews
​

I came across Anthony Bryan’s first book, Getting Out recently! I have always been a fan of this genre and I was unable to put this book down. Obviously the fact that Bryan worked in the secret service makes this story even more captivating, because it is based on the truth. He is an excellent writer and his descriptions and characters are really first class! The description of the time that he was in Saudi and suffered torture was horrible but compelling.


Anthony Bryan’s book Getting Out is not for the faint hearted. It is brutal and knowing that it is based on truth makes it horrifying. This author has a way of drawing you in and can make you feel like you were right there with him. Charley and Dick the two main protagonists feel like people that you already know! I love Bryan’s style and the wicked humour that gives light and shade to this book. Highly recommended.


I have always been fascinated by stories about spies so Getting Out was one I snapped up right away. Bryan shows an undeniable talent for making characters come to life. His descriptions are graphic and totally believable. This was a thrilling read and I would say if you like action and a fair amount of mayhem this is the book for you!


A friend gave me this book and I was hooked right from the first page. I do read a lot of books about spies and that kind of world but this one was head and shoulders above anything I have read before. I will be keeping my eyes open for anything else from this author.


I could not put this book down! Getting Out is a thrilling read and all the more exciting because it is based on true life. I really felt that I was learning about things that only people who worked for the secret service should know and I find that thrilling. I loved the characters, Dick and Charley and I am about to start reading the next book by this author, South of the River.



I was really excited by the detail in Getting Out about the way things work in MI5. Knowing that the author Anthony Bryan was part of that life makes the story even more exciting. This is a story that is raw and Bryan brings the main characters Dick and Charley alive and shows the good and the bad of life in the secret service. I am going to start on the next book, South of the River, soon.

​- Realistic and Entertaining - by Simon Whaley
"Being set in the 70s, it was refreshing to read something that wasn't solved by a smartphone app or a couple of searches on the Internet! When a job in Saudi goes wrong, Richard and Charlie least expect it to come back and haunt them on their next job in Northern Ireland or be linked with the kidnapping of a Cabinet Minister's daughter. A pacey tale, with intrigue and suspense and some chapter endings that just beg you to read on. I had to finish the final third of the book in one sitting."


- My Best Read 2013 and 14 - by Lisa
"I'm hooked. I don't want to wait until his next book! I had never heard of this guy before, but now wow.

The tension gave me chest, pains-truly unbearable.

The principles not the usual cool, sexy, always get the girls types, but are deeply screwed.

The world of espionage will never be the same after this.

Now we know how messed up they really are. Are we safe?

A 'do it in one' read. I can't wait until the next book."

- A Good Escapist Yarn - by Kindle Customer
"A very enjoyable read. I read it in just two sittings. I look forward to the next instalment with these characters."


- Getting Out - by Frankie
"This is not my usual type of book. However, from the first chapter, I was hooked. The tension is at times unbearable. It is interesting that the main characters are not the usual cool, sexy, always get the girls types, but are deeply human and flawed. The world of espionage is even murkier than I thought. A great read."
