Spies & Politics
Review:Lustbader did not disappoint me. I was always a little disappointed with RL's writing style, but liked the Bourne character. Lustbader adds dimension and "character" to the Bourne persona. Well done! Read more
Review:I only finished this book because I started it. There are instances where the writing doesn't make logical sense and what he describes in one sentence contradicts what he said in a previous one. I know it's fiction, but this was a waste of money. Read more
Review:The Jason Bourne sub series is exciting because it has memories of the Cold War, yet brings into account the current state of political affairs and the spate of bad guys associated with it. I like the series because Mr. Bourne simply kicks ass. Read more
Review:Another great Jason Bourne thriller. Obviously, Jason Bourne is getting older, so it is anticipated that the series will eventually end. However, the author continues Robert Ludlums legacy and the book does not disappoint. I loved it! Read more
Review:I bought this book, excited to read another Bourne book. I was extremely disappointed. The plot is so fragmented and exaggerated as to be hard to enjoy.

Bottom line though Bourne on even an off day is better then most! Read more
Review:I believe I have read most of Catherine Coulter's books. I'm enjoying the 'A Brit in the FBI ' series. At the being of the book she thanked someone for the proofreading, there were more errors the proof reader didn't catch. But all things considered I really enjoyed it! Read more

Review:If cricket is in the background of this novel, other games are developing under the reader’s eyes.
Some—not all—of the suspects here look more like victims than villains. The victim himself, a beloved cricket champion, was more stable with his bat than with women or his all too often neglected children. His attempt at regulating his life will ironically lead to tragedy.
Built like a complex jigsaw puzzle where tortured characters seem to further disassemble the pieces, Playing f... Read more
Review:Elizabeth George is a fabulous writer and her characters, Inspector Lynley, Barbara Havers, Simon & his wife, Lynley's wife, etc. are all very much flesh and blood. Scotland Yard and its inhabitants are easily to visualize (as are the characters mentioned in the first sentence. The end of this book contains a shocking event. Enjoy your reading! Read more
