Minu jaoks haaravalt kirjutatud ning ei suutnud lõpus raamatut enne käest panna, kui see läbi sai.

A little boring in the beginning, but quite fascinating throughout. I liked reading about all the different characters. The final third, where the actual robbery takes place, is quite exciting. There seem to be a lot of fiction mixed in with the facts, but I assume the basic story is close to the truth.

Ono što stoji na početku knjige jeste da je priča po istinitom događaju, ali da su pojedini događaji i imena izmenjeni pa tako svaka sličnost sa stvarnim događajima je krajnje slučajna. Prosto je neverovatna priča!

Kad počne priča i dalje vam je na pameti da se sve to stvarno desilo. I kako koja stranica deluje vam sve neverovatnije. Još jedna neverovatna činjenica je da je jedan od likova u knjizi poreklom iz Crne Gore, ali se spominje i Ministar pravde Republike Srbije. Naravno, te stranice su mi posebno bile zanimljive. Sve je politika, nažalost.

Priča je pričana iz ugla četiri glavna aktera, ali uključuje i ugao policije i ugao pomoćnika. Sveobuhvatno sagledava celu situaciju i pripremu za pljačku. Poglavlja nisu dugačka što je čini lakom za čitanje. Ne znam za druge, ali mene nekad zamaraju duga poglavlja. Ne znam što. Rečenice su kratke i tu je sve što treba da stoji. Jedna divno ispričana priča.

Opet, dok nije počela sama pljačka malo sam se dosađivao. Možda je trenutno moje stanje takvo i nema veze sa knjigom. Naravno, najveće uzbuđenje predstavlja sama pljačka i te stranice se bukvalno čitaju u dahu. Ono što je najlepše, na internetu postoje snimci te pljačke pa se mogu pogledati.

I ono što posebno ostavlja bez teksta jeste kraj. Naravno, gotovo svaka knjiga ima preokret. Ali ovo nisam očekivao. Ali opet, treba stići do kraja. U svakom slučaju knjiga je zanimljiva i uzbudljiva. Nadam se da će snimiti film po njoj.

Tip: anyone that says this is fast-paced is lying, they haven't read it.

The dialogue was shit. The moron saying 'Right, right' to just about everything was tedious.

The predictable twist at the end was a fizzle.

Awfully boring. Skip this. Hopefully the author doesn't get another book deal.

Jag hade jättehöga förväntningar på denna boken ... dessvärre levde den inte riktigt upp till dem. Jag upplever handlingen som tuggummiseg och ganska platt. Slutet var väldigt oväntat och lite irriterande. En helt okej bok.

I won this book in a competition I didn't mean to enter.

I absolutely hate to post a negative review especially as I knew from the beginning that this book would not be to my taste. I was tempted to ignore it but as I had been kindly sent a copy I decided to pick it up and give it a shot.

Unfortunately, I was correct in my assumptions.

The style and execution if the writing was quite enjoyable but I just could not immerse myself in the storyline. I felt nothing for the characters and the subject matter just did not hold my attention.
I am not a fan of this genre at all but I'm sure that if this is your preferred genre to read you will enjoy this book.

A surreal story, hard to believe it is based on true events just because it feels surreal that a group of people would plan, and execute, a heist that belongs in a Hollywood movie. This book can be divided into two parts, the preparation of the heist and the heist itself. You will have to be patient for some action, but once it is go-time, you will not want to put the book down until the end. There are a couple of characters in the book which feel added by the author to the story, like the old man with the dogs, and I still don’t understand fully what was the reason to have such a character in the book. In short, this book is a “true crime” book with certain deviations from reality, it begins slow but once it goes, it goes with a great mix of pace, intensity, and tension. Would highly recommend it, also because there isn’t much information on internet about this crazy heist.

Wow, så spännande händelse och mycket fångande roman. Kanske inte Nobelpris men oj så svårt att sluta läsa!
