"...The payoff at the end of the road is a gem....It's a crafty piece of work..." 01/16/1998 p.C1 Chicago Sun-Times

...I'm...recommending Fallen on the strength of its complex plot and especially its ending, which I loved. The final scenes are startling, audacious, and unexpected. - James Berardinelli
