THE CLASSIC THRILLER FROM #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR FREDERICK FORSYTH
“The Day of the Jackal makes such comparable books such as The Manchurian Candidate and The Spy Who Came in from the Cold seem like Hardy Boy mysteries.”—The New York Times
The Jackal. A tall, blond Englishman with opaque, gray eyes. A killer at the top of his profession. A man unknown to any secret service in the world. An assassin with a contract to kill the world's most heavily guarded man.
One man with a rifle who can change the course of history. One man whose mission is so secretive not even his employers know his name. And as the minutes count down to the final act of execution, it seems that there is no power on earth that can stop the Jackal.

Review
"In a class by itself. Unputdownable." Sunday Times "Mr Forsyth is clever. Very clever and immensely entertaining." Daily Telegraph "I was spellbound ... riveted by this chilling story." Guardian "It is no exaggeration to say The Day of the Jackal has influenced a generation of thriller writers... Before, thrillers were self-evidently works of the imagination. Forsyth changed all that; never before had a popular novelist created a world that seemed indistinguishable from real life... Few writers can claim to have changed the literary landscape. Forty years ago, a penniless British journalist, unwittingly or not, did just that" Guardian

Must reading for action fans and would-be action writers...
By Tom
Reading The day of the Jackal is a genuine pleasure in the tell-me-a-story, invest-me-in-rich-characters, transport-and-titillate-me a little and-spin-a-rich-yarn sense.
This story succeeds with a nuance rarely seen in today's rapid fire style action thriller. And does it ever succeed! Bear in mind that to enjoy this you're expected to soak in details of life in Europe in the early 1960'---to be transported back to days when it took 30 minutes for a long distance call to connect. The action unfolds at a normal human pace, unaided by strident and intrusive technology. People have to pause their action, often for hours or even a day at a time, to wait for fresh information to start flowing again and set the next act in motion.
The rotary phone pacing means you have time to ponder past events and look ahead to what's ahead in the next pages. It also adds tremendously to the experience as you become engaged in the slow, methodical hunt for the Jackal and concurrently in the evasive tactical maneuvers of the Jackal to elude his pursuers.
Forsyth provides his readers with brief, teasing looks over the plot horizon and then restrains you as circumstances slowly unwind to deliver surprising twists and turns from his major characters--the slick and instinctive Jackal playing mouse to plodding, rumpled, but quietly cerebral Lebel. To enjoy this fully you have to be willing to forgo explosive immediate gratification for a slower gratification made so much sweeter by it's consistently textured delivery.
The ending satisfies but it's the rich and nuanced journey that will stick with you when you lay the book down (or turn the audiobook off).
So if you're willing trade down from warp drive to 1960's style mach drive you'll relish the outcome of this literary experience.

Despite the fact that the reader knows that the hired ...
By Ogden Miller
Despite the fact that the reader knows that the hired gun's attempt will not succeed in the end (since De Gaulle was not shot), the book is gripping and filled with interesting detail about both the killer's elaborate preparations and Label (the French cop trying to identify him) and his mission.

I enjoyed it very much
By Robert J. Grinage
I enjoyed it very much, I loved the way he handled the characters, I have read this story more the fifty times over the last 30 years. Robert P.S. I also have the movie, of course it is not as good as the book for so much is left out.
