A terrible, awful, horrible book October 7, 2008 This is a terrible, terrible book, by far the worst I have ever read and I have read some real dross in my time. I kept reading until almost the very end as I couldn't believe that it wouldn't get any better, but it doesn't. It gets worse.
This book taught me two very valuable lessons: You don't have to finish every book you start. You can also throw them out.
Starts Very Well, Deteriorates Quickly, Ends Dreadfully January 2, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book begins magnificently. The first few pages are very exciting, and mix action and mystery in a European setting. Some development follows as things slow down. As the book wears on, the plot becomes increasingly preposterous and ends abysmally.
Having read all the way to the end once, I give this book "thumbs down", though I must admit that the beginning is of such caliber that I have re-read the start of this book more than once.
It's a pity, though I believe the opening would prove excellent as a starting point for a writers' workshop.
Best Author. November 5, 2007 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is another book from my favorite author. It is a great read as is any one of his books. Great Read!!!!!
One of the most preposterous utterly ridiculous books ever written. October 5, 2007 3 out of 10 found this review helpful
I am ashamed, deeply ashamed that I waded half way through this awful tripe. Do yourself a HUGE favor and do NOT read this book. That Folsom could get this drivel published is a testimony to his business acumen if not his skill as a writer. One third of the way through I guessed the ending as utterly implausible as it was. I would have guessed it sooner, however I simply refused to believe so absurd a story could ever be conceived much less published.
There are some for whom this book would be ideally suited however. If you subscribe to the theory that 9-11 was an inside job or that Algore has unique fact-based reliable insights into man-made global warming or if your level of political analysis is confined to the mantra, "Bush lied, people died," or if you are nearly illiterate, or if you are just plain stoopid - well then, by golly, you've come to the right place! This book is for you!
Otherwise, do yourself a favor: do not buy this book.
Possibly the Greatest Thriller Ever September 22, 2007 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
This thriller ranks among the best ever, including works by Ludlum, Follet, Forsythe, and Baldacci. Folsom never lets up on the pacing, and the action and twists are non-stop. As the hero races around the world, hints as to the conspiracy at hand are revealed, leading to a final revelation that is one of the most imaginitive AND horrifying scenarios ever put down on paper.
If you are any kind of thriller fan this is a book you MUST READ.
