The Jack Rogan Mysteries Literary Companion
“If you have had the distinct pleasure of reading just one of Gabriel Farago’s books, then you already know the level at which he researches each of his books, crafts his characters, and the masterful way he weaves fact and fiction together. He is not your typical author!
Mr Farago has taken many steps more to share his real-life experiences, and his creative process in creating a guide – a literary companion, all for the benefit of his readers. One gets the sense of the awakening artist as he shares his literary brush strokes throughout this companion piece.
As a reader of all of Farago’s books written about the Jack Rogan’s mysteries, I found this Literary Companion a wonderful adjunct. There have been numerous times I have thought I recognized a character from a previous book but couldn’t recall exactly why he or she would fit into the new story. An enormous thank you to Gabriel Farago for this literary companion, and for the great value he places on us, the readers!”

“This book is unlike any I have read.
As a companion meant to enhance our reading of whichever of Farago’s book we are reading, have read, or want to read, it is that and more.
Farago also introduces himself to us through his experiences, some of which are laugh-out-loud moments.
In the sections dealing with specific books the reader’s enjoyment is amplified through the discovery of each individual setting, and by having each character’s origins and profiles explained.
To any reader or want to be reader of Farago’s stories, I would very much recommend this Literary Companion.”

“Gabriel has crafted a very compelling literary companion for readers of any of the Jack Rogan mysteries. One particularly intriguing section is devoted to the villains of the stories.
Gabriel Farago writes:
“All of my villains are very different. Because each of the books in the Jack Rogan Mysteries series ‘stands alone’ and can be read as such, each story is self-contained; the villains rarely ‘carry over.’” Of one of his villains he wrote “But his eyes never smiled. They observed, radiating ruthlessness, cunning and danger.” What a delicious impression!
When reading the literary companion, one almost feels as though Farago is sitting close by commenting to a friend about how he crafts his novels: “Once again, I reveal this character step by step, to create curiosity, and show the different, fascinating aspects of this complex man. One of the most effective ways to do this is to present the character through the eyes of someone else, preferably someone who is meeting this character for the first time.”
One could be forgiven for suspecting psychological manipulation of readers when GF explains: “Mystery and suspense are very effective ways to arouse curiosity, and curiosity, by definition, is the desire to find out more. In short, curiosity makes the reader turn the pages.” But he does this so well we are moved to forgive and to enjoy the whole experience.
In short, I can warmly recommend this book for readers who enjoy the Jack Rogan experience.”

“This companion to the Jack Rogan series of books is an excellent addition to the series. I learnt how much research goes into the books – I knew it must be a lot but didn’t realise how much and this has increased my respect for Gabriel. The book shows just how committed Gabriel is to factual accuracy. It was also interesting how he revealed more and more about himself following his own mantra of doing this for his characters in the books.
If you are not interested in reading all the introductory information the index allows you to dive straight in for information relating to a particular book and also to jump to the various sections in the narrative about a book. This feature I found useful when skipping through the companion to find a particular thing that I had read. Also, I found that because the information is collected together it gelled with me more than when it appeared in the individual books.
The write-up on the research done in St Petersburg probably resonated the most with me since I too have visited some of the places that Gabriel visited. Having visited the gardens of the Peterhof Palace, I could well imagine him sitting in a quiet corner taking in the splendour of the place while making notes in his notebook.”
