Night Soldiers is a critically acclaimed series of historical spy thrillers by Alan Furst, set in Europe between the World Wars and during World War II. Rather than following a single protagonist, each book features different characters caught in the shadowy world of espionage as Europe descends into war.
The series captures the moral ambiguity, danger, and romance of pre-war and wartime Europe. From the cafes of Paris to the embassies of Warsaw, from the mountains of the Balkans to the streets of occupied France, Furst’s novels immerse readers in a world where nothing is as it seems and survival requires cunning, courage, and sometimes moral compromise.
Furst is known for his meticulous historical research and his ability to evoke the atmosphere of Europe between the wars—the looming threat of totalitarianism, the decadence of Paris nightlife, the desperation of refugees, and the heroic but often futile resistance efforts. His protagonists are not superspies but ordinary people—journalists, diplomats, soldiers, engineers—forced by circumstance into a world of espionage and betrayal.
