I think that Uris is a very straight-forward and interesting writer. The story goes all over the place, but that tends to happen when it's the truth. I found the book enjoyable, if a little long (could have been 300 pages shorter, really).

Have just waded through maybe one third of QB VII. My first attempt to read anything by Mr Uris, its also my last. I am at present in Japan where English books are not plentiful, despite the scarcity of books I won't be wasting my time on this bilge.
I found it to be a saga of banal cardboard characters who's predictability was only surpassed by authors desire to push the Zionist agenda. So if you want to avoid having your intelligence insulted don't bother with this book. If we assume that this "saga" is a fair indication of his other work then I'd advise avoidance of those as well.
