Review Quotes




Praise for Randy Wayne White's Cuba Straits

"White shows a new side to his talent [in Cuba Straits], combining familiar themes and much-loved characters with a real flair for madcap adventure." --Booklist (starred review)

"White smoothly combines history, action, and colorful characters into a savory concoction easily devoured in a single sitting." --Publishers Weekly

"A trove of revealing private documents, rumors concerning a political assassination, a trip to Cuba--it's either today's newspaper or Dr. Marion Ford's 22nd adventure. . . . Cuba provides the perfect setting. . . . The next few months' headlines will determine whether his view of contemporary Cuba is remarkably prophetic." --Kirkus Reviews

"Baseball, fishing, sharp dialogue, and an action-packed story. Pour a mojito, think of a place where people clap 'just because the sun goes down, ' and read this." --Cleveland Plain Dealer

"Intriguing settings, colorful characters, and eye-opening geopolitical dramas. When you mix everything together, you have a ready-to-serve and highly recommended first-class adventure." --Mystery Scene

"White's storytelling at its best...a rip-roaring plot filled with baseball, history, lost treasure, and, just for good measure, a love triangle--all wrapped in politics." --South Florida Sun-Sentinel

"The master has knocked one out of the park." --The Florida Times-Union
