For most of the book I found it mediocre . Just enough to keep me reading. The ending made it all worth it! An amazing story of true bravery

Very suspenseful, my kind of book!

I cried at the end. It was the best I had read in a long time.

This book kicks you right in the teeth. Extraordinary. I have read all sorts of fiction and non-fiction about the camps, but this one is by far one of the most horrific and suspenseful ones ever because it gives you hope, takes it away, gives it back and then slaps you with it. The chess-playing scenes were nail-biting; any minute you expect something to shatter everything. You can almost hear the clock ticking; you’ll be holding your breath in fear. This book was impossible to put down but impossible to read without an ongoing dread, fear, and constant hope that triumph is just around the corner. An exhausting book: spectacular, tragic, hopeful and depressing — simultaneously. Wow. I just finished it a few minutes ago and I need a class of cognac and perhaps a few hours of watching The Office just to wind down from it. This is a must-read, but be warned — it will grab you by the throat and leave you gasping for breath while haunting your dreams. This book burrows itself into your very humanity.

Fabulous

Boring and redundantly written. Yawn.

Great book literally kept me on edge of my seat.

This book "The One Man," by Andrew Gross is definitely in my top ten best books ever! It was brilliantly written, so suspenseful I had to stop a few times and put it down and I even cried...if you read one book in 2017 read this.

This is one great read. Don't miss it.

Truly, a fantastic read that keeps you turning pages long past when the time you thought you would put it down. Leo was a lucky guy! It just goes to show good things happen when you use your brains.
