Just adding these here for reference; these were included in an earlier version of the draft and I believe are taken from the author's website. They could potentially be incorporated into the article, if sourced (and I'll strike them out if I add any in).

Iced

"Siler's first book, Easy Money, was a huge critical success and put the author on the literary map. Iced will keep her there." Denver Post

Shot

"Shot is everything a thriller should be..." Rebecca Ascher-Walsh, Entertainment Weekly

"Shot, the third of Jenny Siler's riveting suspense novels, showcases her strong female characters and superbly paced plotting.... The pieces come together fast and furious in this sharply written and timely novel evocative of the best of the genre." Baltimore Sun

"Quirky characters, a quicksilver plot, and chase scenes aplenty...in Siler's dirty but redeemable universe, everyone ends up on higher ground." Publisher's Weekly

'Flashback

"Tight prose and quicksilver plot complete the package. Siler knows how to write an absorbing page-turner, and Flashback is every bit as much fun as her last." Library Journal (needs source)

The Prince of Bagram Prison

"...an intelligent spy thriller. Effortlessly shifting point of view back and forth in time. Carr well deserves comparison with the early John le Carre." Publishers Weekly

"...a fine novel dense with complex and flawed characters, a vivid sense of place, and fascinating insights into the Muslim faith." Booklist

"A smart timely thriller." Kirkus Review

An Accidental American

"Demonstrates fiction's power to follow a shard of glass from the great explosion.... In this novel, we learn how to decipher the language of war. its mismanaged intent and complex ramifications." David Thayer, January Magazine, best books of 2007.

"A swift, clean, nuanced thriller....deeply atmospheric." Adam Wong, Seattle Times, best crime novels of 2007.
