I was so excited to see this new novel by James Patterson. He is one of the rare authors whose books I buy without question. His books that are written with other authors are usually not very well written. It's almost as if he just gives them the plot and allow the other authors to run rampant with the story. When I saw this book, an Alex Cross book at that, I was hooked. It is a true page turner. The short chapters will have you saying to yourself, late into the night....I'll stop at the next chapter. Then....I'll stop at the next chapter, etc. Before you know it, your done and ready for the next installation. Great book, great storyline, loveable characters and nail biting suspense.
It's like all his "books" - 40% white space, half-page chapter starters every other page. Look at how many books the guy's been cranking out. Instead of a decent BOOK as in years past it is now a matter of meeting the sheer number of books and grabbing up money as much as possible for sales. I'll never buy a JPatterson book again.
