Standup Guy: A Stone Barrington Novel

This story is funny and exciting with the pacing you expect from Stuart Woods. The pace is quick the characters are well fleshed out. The story is wild but possible in his world of rich lawyers and criminals.

Very good book. The book holds my interest because I know the main characters and like the relationship they have with each other. I can't wait to read the next novel. Love the intrigue and action.

ANOTHER STANDARD STONE BARRINGTON BOOK. BUT I AM GETTING A LITTLE TIRED OF EVERY WOMAN WHO CROSSES STONE'S PATH IMMEDIATELY FALLING INTO BED WITH HIM. MEN MIGHT LIKE TO THINK THAT'S TRUE, BUT IT JUST AIN'T SO.

Woods books most of the time are good - this was - not sure how they come up with such great story lines - getting this book for my son-in-law and he just took up drinking burbon and getting him what Stone Barrington drinks all the time (guess it's his signature)!

If you like Stuart Woods, you'll like Standup Guy. If you like Stone Barrington and his eclectic coterie, you will thoroughly enjoy this romp. Even the new character who seems a little "off" when you start reading is explained to satisfaction later. Thank you, Stuart Woods, for hours and years of reading enjoyment!!!

stuart woods has become just another formula writer. Nothing new. And yes Stuart, we know that you fly airplanes, but stop boring the rest of us with your knowledge of flying. Be sometime until Mr. Woods gets another try.

beginning good.. lost me .. then it came back again.. i i did enjoy the book..seemed as though several people were writing it.. different styles..is stuart doing a patterson.. its ok if the books keep the same level of fun....................

These characters are, except for the real bad guys, ones that we all wish we were at times. His female characters have more wit and depth than most male authors can envision, and I did not know who did what to whom (for certain) until the end of a really fun adventure.

I have been reading woods from the first novel and will to the last. I am always thrilled when I see a new book by woods, especially stone barrington, is coming out. I read right through it and am disappointed that it is over. I do have a great time discussing these books with a couple of friends.

With Stone everthing is connected and yet there are always new and interesting situations he manages to get himself into.He may be a partner in an uptown firm but somehow he still manages to attract some downtown characters. Kudos!

I think it is well written and the characters are equally well placed within the story. Stone is Stone, but how can a guys be so smart and so naive at the same time. I liked the UK and NY Connections, but did miss the California group. My only regret was that it ended too quickly (or I read too fast). I would like longer books.

Stuart Woods never fails to impress. His wordcraft is excellent and his plotting and flow are satisfying. The characters he has created and matured don't grw stale, they grow better. Stone and Dino are a perfect matched pair.
