Booklist
Ivereigh is the ideal papal biographer... A detailed and well-written examination of Pope Francis. With its wealth of biographical information that offers an in-depth look at formative influences, this is the best examination of the current pope to date.
Publishers Weekly
Probing, comprehensive, eminently readable and absorbing. In a growing list of books on the first Latin American pope, Ivereigh's is uniquely well informed and persuasive.

Un relato brillantemente escrito y meticulosamente documentado sobre la vida de Francisco. La mejor biografía del Papa escrita hasta la fecha.
The New York Times
Una guía reveladora. Este Papa parece menos sorprendente, aunque no por ello menos singular, cuando se le ve a través de los ojos de Ivereigh.
The Washington Post
El gran reformador es un libro magnífico que merece un gran número de lectores. Un auténtico tour de force de investigación biográfica y juicios acertados.
Commonwealth
Un libro exhaustivo... Una biografía definitiva.
