Overall, The President's Daughter is a meticulous, compelling, intricate mystery by this dynamic writing duo that I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend.

As with the previous book written by this partnership, the plot, structure and syntax, read very much like a trademark James Patterson novel with literary techniques galore. It's an exciting, fast-paced, all-action, easy read and it will definitely appeal to Patterson fans

Great entertainment which surely also works quite well on the screen

I really enjoy a decent thriller that I can sink my teeth into and there is certainly plenty to chew over here.

With the tension inside these chapters, I definitely recommend reading The President's Daughter

It's perfectly paced, full of explosive action and it kept me hooked with all of the political drama and deceit.

________________________

The dream team delivers big time … Clinton’s insider secrets and Patterson’s storytelling genius make this the political thriller of the decade.

The President Is Missing is a big, splashy juggernaut of a novel, combining thrills with a truly authentic look at the inner happenings in Washington. I read it in one gulp. You will too.

Harlan Coben, #1 bestselling author of DON'T LET GO

The book’s biggest selling point is the guarantee of political authenticity… the kite-mark of unmatchable psychological veracity… The eventual revelation of the villain, which is satisfying and surprising, really does feel like the outcome of a conversation between one writer with an unusual skill at thriller plotting and another with an exceptional grasp of global politics. The literary running mates have earned a second term.

An entertaining romp… thoroughly enjoyable… it works. It is a quick, slick, gripping read

Page-turning… In a plot crammed with twists, readers are granted thriller writing that delivers… Nobody will walk away from The President Is Missing feeling disappointed if they are looking for a vigorous, fast-moving thriller that takes the reader into the corridors of power

A brilliant, tricksy first chapter… unmistakably shows that their partnership works… The President Is Missing enthrallingly interweaves a cyber-thriller, a Homeland-style battle against jihadi terrorism and a find-the-mole hunt à la Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy – and it has aspects of a Cold War geopolitical thriller, too… To paraphrase Katherine Hepburn on Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, Bill gives James class and James gives Bill sexed-up plotting

The plotting is immaculate… the writing is taut

Marry the political savvy of Bill Clinton with the craftsmanship of James Patterson and you get a fabulously entertaining thriller that is meticulous in its portrayal of Washington politics, gripping in its pacing, and harrowing in its depiction of the perils of cyberwarfare. This dark tale is, at bottom, a warning and a prophecy about the mortal threats to our democracy posed by terrorists abroad, homegrown extremism, and the technological miracles that have rendered us both powerful and defenceless at once.

Ron Chernow, #1 bestselling and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of ALEXANDER HAMILTON and GRANT

A high-octane collaboration... the addictive qualities are undeniable

A bullet train of a thriller. The Day of the Jackal for the twenty-first century.

A.J. Finn, author of THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW

A first-rate collaboration from a couple of real pros! Engrossing from page one.

Relentless in its plotting and honest in its examination of issues that strike close to our hearts.

A showstopper… if you like thrillers and you like American politics, you’re going to love this book... You feel the authenticity of the two writers writing hand in glove... It’s a cracker

Fast-paced and well-engineered… Clinton’s input is well deployed on the White House insider scenes, and… Patterson can tell a story

A high-tension thriller ... Bill Clinton’s insider perspective and James Patterson’s pacy plotting combine to irresistibly page-turning effect.’

Patterson [is the] master of the gripping page-turner, terse writing and masterly plotting ... Patterson’s brilliance makes it very exciting … the book scores high on the authenticity scale

The President Is Missing is heart-pounding, gripping, terrifying. As I read, ferociously turning the pages, I kept asking myself, "Could this really happen?" Bill Clinton’s insight into the pressures of being president and life in the White House coupled with James Patterson’s chops as an action writer have combined to give us a genuinely masterful thriller. My knuckles are still white!

Louise Penny, #1 bestselling author of GLASS HOUSES

The President is Missing is more than a thriller – it's a skeleton key that lets you inside the head of a U.S. president.

Brad Meltzer, author of THE ESCAPE ARTIST

vivid, engrossing – and authentically frightening.

From the pens of two American icons comes a political thriller that rocks... a helluva story.

Nelson DeMille, author of THE CUBAN AFFAIR

The publishing event of the year… a White House thriller of unique insight

The book is action all the way, and feels incredibly true to life

Could I put The President Is Missing down? Of course not, except when I absolutely had to

Intriguing… you’ll whip through it on the beach, that’s for sure

Enough pacy action and fun to keep those pages turning

Fast-paced, frenetic action and fun

What gives the book the edge is Clinton’s input. Small throwaway touches… make the whole thing feel authentic

James… is a tireless champion of the power of books

Patterson knows how to make a story go so fast…

[A] ripping yarn… Co-author James Patterson is one of the biggest-selling writers of all time so unsurprisingly the unfolding and convergence of [President] Duncan and [assassin] Bach’s plotlines is achieved with consummate skill

[It] will keep you hooked until the last page

We really enjoyed this brilliant political thriller

The most authentic, gripping presidential thriller ever.

The perfect book for the beach: a big, fast-paced, twisty engrossing thriller packed with spectacular detail of what it is really like to be President of the United States.

Fast-paced is too inadequate a description for this dark, suspense-filled tale.

Both a first-rate thriller and fascinating insight into the goings on within the White House.

Why We Need Smart Government for a Strong Economy

Back to Work

Essential reading on the global economy from former US President, Bill Clinton

There's an upbeat, front-foot tone to Back to Work that is welcome at a time of despair. Love him or hate him, he hasn't lost his touch.

Shrewd and convincing. To say that Bill Clinton possesses superb political instincts is like saying that Paul McCartney has a good ear; he is probably the best natural politician of his generation. His skill at framing an argument is without peer and that he does so without demagoguery is to his lasting credit . . . informed, high-minded, intelligent and persuasive

Through the sheer number and range of his ideas, Mr Clinton manages to convey a badly needs sense of hope.

This book is a well-timed and serious contribution to the debate that will go a long way towards deciding next year's election - the debate on what America's government is for.

Bill Clinton served as the 42nd President of the United States from 1993 to 2001.

In Back to Work, Bill Clinton offers a plan to get America out of its economic crisis and "back into the future business." 
 
Clinton details how to lay a foundation for long-term prosperity, offering specific recommendations on how to boost employment rates, increase bank lending and corporate investment, and double exports. 
 
He emphasises that antigovernment sentiments in the public rarely contribute to a prosperous growth. Conflict between the government and the private sector has given the U.S. a weak economy, growing income inequality, and a decline in its competitive position. Cooperation, he stresses, is more conducive to success than conflict. 
 
To Clinton, America “at its core is an idea – the idea that no matter who you are or where you're from, if you work hard and play by the rules, you'll have the freedom and opportunity to pursue your own dreams.” Back to Work is an effort to rejuvenate the idea that is America.

How Each Of Us Can Change The World

Giving

'I wrote this book to encourage you to give whatever you can, because everyone can give something... And there's so much to be done, down the street and around the world. It's never too late or too early to start' BILL CLINTON

Giving is essentially a manual for those people who might be tempted to follow Clinton's example and give their time, skills or money to a good cause...Clinton depicts a world in which men and women can move mountains

This is a good book in the literal sense that, if everyone who read it took the author's advice, the world would almost certainly be a better place

As an inspirational primer for giving, as opposed to getting, his book should be in every school, every office and every library

Bill Clinton's call to linked arms silences most doubters with its weight of detail

Clinton recounts some truly inspiring stories

A rousing exhortation to anyone with even the smallest amount of time, money or skill at their disposal to use it for the benefit of the world.

Here, from Bill Clinton, is a call to action. Giving is an inspiring look at how each of us can change the world. First, it reveals the extraordinary and innovative efforts now being made by companies and organizations-and by individuals-to solve problems and save lives both 'down the street and around the world'. Then it urges us to seek out what each of us, 'regardless of income, available time, age, and skills', can do to help, to give people a chance to live out their dreams. 
 
Bill Clinton shares his own experiences and those of other givers, representing a global flood tide of nongovernmental, nonprofit activity. These remarkable stories demonstrate that gifts of time, skills, things, and ideas are as important and effective as contributions of money. From Bill and Melinda Gates to a six-year-old California girl named McKenzie Steiner, who organized and supervised drives to clean up the beach in her community, Clinton introduces us to both well-known and unknown heroes of giving. 
 
Clinton writes about men and women who traded in their corporate careers, and the fulfillment they now experience through giving. He writes about energy-efficient practices, about progressive companies going green, about promoting fair wages and decent working conditions around the world. He shows us how one of the most important ways of giving can be an effort to change, improve, or protect a government policy. He outlines what we as individuals can do, the steps we can take, how much we should consider giving, and why our giving is so important. 
 
Bill Clinton's own actions in his post-presidential years have had an enormous impact on the lives of millions. Through his foundation and his work in the aftermath of the Asian tsunami and Hurricane Katrina, he has become an international spokesperson and model for the power of giving.

My Life

An international bestseller, this autobiography is a groundbreaking political book from one of the world'd most famous politicians and two-term American President. Famous for the phrase 'it's the economy stupid,' Clinton presided over America's strongest ever peacetime economy.

My Life is, without question, the best written U.S. presidential tome of all time

Bill Clinton has given an unprecedented story of a White House life and the roads that led to it

You can't help but feel you're in the company, one on one, of the man himself... The narrative is engaging... The accounts of high-wire diplomacy... are all riveting

His book tells, in an extraordinary way, a truly heartening story of American democracy

By a generous measure ... the richest American presidential autobiography - no other book tells us as vividly or fully what it is like to be president of the United States ... And he can write

It's an almost voluptuous pleasure to read Clinton when he's recounting and analyzing a political race or a legislative battle, whether it's one of his own or somebody else's

Clinton talks with disarming frankness [and] writes with grace and fluidity . . . He is also a born storyteller

Might just be the perfect representation of the man himself

Clinton has many tales to tell, particularly a rich, sometimes moving account of his years before the public life, fit for future analytical historians and biographers . . . The personal and the political are intertwined . . . Clinton's story very much reflects the man we know

He manages to create the distinct impression that he is sitting in the living room talking to the reader . . . Anyone who is geninely interested in American politics will find his insights and anecdotes fascinating . . . The book helps to elucidate the question of 'how he did it'

It's a saga worthy of Cecil B. DeMille, a rags-to-riches tale full of the stuff of human frailty, with a cast of hundreds, complete with low-life villians and high-minded heroes and, as such stories require, an upbeat ending . . . The 1990s come to life once again as a time of uncommon tumult and riveting personalities . . . The personalities on parade are as vivid as the events

Tremendously interesting and entertaining . . . Clinton's is a truly American story to which the average person can relate . . . Future politicians will find it a must-read, and average Americans will identify with the highs and lows we all experience as we make our way through life

Takes readers through a strong account of the achievements and failures of his administrattion . . . No other presidential memoir is likely to be so lively . . . Bill Clinton is hard to dismiss, and so is an account of his extraordinary life

A reading of My Life is a necessity for lovers of good autobiograpy. It reads like a down-home history of a life and, thus, anchors Clinton as a superb storyteller . . . Candid . . . Honest . . . Stimulating

Bill Clinton served as the forty-second President of the United States from 1993 to 2001. George W Bush was his successor and George H W Bush his predecessor. Since leaving office, Clinton has been heavily involved in public speaking and humanitarian work. He has remained active in political matters, campaigning for Democratic presidential candidates, notably his wife in the 2008 presidential election. Hilary Clinton, is also a powerful force in world politics; she was the United States Senator for New York from 2001-9 and the 67th United States Secretary of State under Barack Obama.

President Bill Clinton's My Life is the strikingly candid self-portrait of a world leader who decided in early life to devote his intellectual and political gifts, and his extraordinary capacity for hard work, to serving the people of America and the entire world population. It is the fullest, most concretely detailed, most nuanced account of a presidency ever written, and a testament to the positive impact that his work and his political ideals had on America and on the world. Here is the life of a great national and international figure, revealed with all his talents and contradictions. Filled with fascinating moments and insights, it is told openly, directly, in President Clinton's immediately recognisable voice. A fascinating journey through American politics, and one of the world's most famous politicians, and popular presidents.

President Bill Clinton

My Life After the White House

A powerful, candid, and richly detailed memoir from an American icon, revealing what life looks like after the presidency: triumphs, tribulations, and all. 
 
On 20th January 2001, after nearly thirty years in politics &mdash; eight of them as President of the United States &mdash; Bill Clinton was suddenly a private citizen. Only fifty-four years old, full of energy and ideas, he wanted to make meaningful use of his skills, his relationships with world leaders, and all he&rsquo;d learned in a lifetime of politics, but how? Just days after leaving the White House, the call came to aid victims of a devastating earthquake in India, and Clinton hit the ground running. Over the next two decades, he would create an enduring legacy of public service and advocacy work, from Indonesia to Louisiana, Northern Ireland to South Africa, and in the process reimagine philanthropy and redefine the impact a former president could have on the world. 
 
Citizen is Clinton&rsquo;s front-row, first-person chronicle of his post-presidential years and the most significant events of the twenty-first century, including 9/11 and the runup to the Iraq War, the Haiti earthquake, the Great Recession, COVID-19, the January 6th insurrection, and the enduring culture wars of our times. Yet Citizen is more than a presidential memoir. These pages capture Clinton in a rare and unforgettable light: not only as celebrated former president and foundation leader, but also as a father, grandfather, and husband. He shares his support for Hillary Clinton during her tenure as senator, secretary of state, and presidential candidate, and openly details the frustration and pain of the 2016 election. 
 
With clarity and compassion, President Clinton also weighs in on the unprecedented challenges brought on by a global pandemic, ongoing inequality, a steadily warming planet, and authoritarian forces dedicated to weakening democracy. In this landmark publication, the highly anticipated follow-up to the best-selling My Life, Clinton pens a clear-sighted account of American democracy on a global stage, offering a frank reflection on the past and, with it, a fearless embrace of our future. Citizen is a testament to one man&rsquo;s unwavering commitment to family and nation, a self-portrait of equal parts eloquence, insight, and candor.
