Reader reviews for Conclave
Review summary
Readers widely judged Robert Harris’s Conclave an absorbing ecclesiastical thriller that fuses the choreography of papal election with a tightly wound political drama. The procedural detail feels authoritative without pedantry, the Vatican setting is vivid, and Cardinal Jacopo Lomeli’s introspective stewardship provides a humane counterpoint to horse?trading and ambition. Many found it brisk and compulsive, though a minority thought the tempo more methodical. The final twist proved polarizing—bold and surprising for some, contrived or implausible for others—but the consensus is that the novel is an intelligent, timely study of faith, power and institutional politics; the audiobook won praise, while the film adaptation was generally seen as flatter than the book.
