Fabulous historical political biopic
It's easy to dismiss this as another big budget Hollywood film, however, the fact that Tom Hanks' character has to fight against the American judicial system makes it seem less like a "Make America Great Again" type of movie. Jim Donovan was a unique lawyer defending a Soviet spy, and then making an exchange for a US soldier and student stuck in East Berlin. The historical political nature of this biopic is fascinating. And while there is an element of hero worshipping, there's a good reason to love Tom Hanks.

Berlin book, but in an endearing way!
Contains spoilers, click to show
I loved this book and the author really added in some last minute plot that wrapped up very nicely, not sloppy! The ending is not at all expected but does have some elements that you, as the reader, do see in advance coming up.

I'm sad that this will only be a trilogy, but, it certainly went out with a bang.

Kim is in Berlin under the guise of being an official's wife. Let's just say, that lasts all of 5 seconds. The story is quickly paced, and a tad predictable. There weren't really any loose ends that we're tied up. I definitely plan on buying this series of books so I can read them again.

I wouldn't mind seeing more books about people with talents, perhaps set a little further into the future, or in the past.
