Not the best Alex Cross book I have read but it was still totally readable and very entertaining. I like Alex Cross and his little family and I enjoyed the side story of his relationship with Christine. The main story of the Four Horsemen was, in true Patterson form, way over the top but still absolutely engrossing and page turning.I am steadily working my way through the Alex Cross series. I pick one up every time I feel like a good book which will entertain me without me having to think. SoAlex Cross is investigating a string of unsolved murders in the Southeast area of D.C. That the rest of the police force seems to ignore. After a cop who had recently started looking into the murders is murdered while following a suspect, Alex takes over and arrests the suspect, Geoffrey Shaffer, a British diplomat. In a surprise twist, Shaffer waives his diplomatic immunity and wants to go to trial. This was a solid entry in the Alex Cross series. Alex's family and career do evolve over the
Not bad at all. Moved quickly and I enjoyed the four horsemen concept for the killers. Alex is a great character to read about and the personalism of this installment made for a more edge of your seat read. But I found it predictable so thats why I went to three stars. It was still interesting though. My quick and simple overall: an interesting quick read you can read in one afternoon.
I started reading this series during The Great American Read. I was familiar with James Patterson, mostly because his name is splashed all over so many books as author, co-author, or whatever you want to call his publication style, but I had never actually read one of his books. I discovered quickly that I actually like Alex Cross, a Washington D.C. psychologist who becomes a detective. Cross investigates some gritty, hard-hitting cases. The series reads like a television thriller series or an
Years ago, I gave up on Patterson after reading 1/5 of this book. I suppose seeing the author's name on the new release shelf 365 days a year makes it difficult to ignore him, and I decided to give this book another try. The first time was in audio form, which seems to highlight the worst traits of James Patterson - this being the inane dialog and the totally unbelievable villains. Seriously, I've read graphic novels and other comic books with more lifelike villains than Geoffrey Shaffer (AKA
Originally on my book blog!Can I just flail instead of write a review? This was a masterpiece and you should believe me because I dont use that word often. Everything was fabulous in this book. The characters (thats nothing new), the plot (also nothing new), the plot twists (go figure), and the ending (SHOCKER, THAT).No really, this book was like fictional quicksand (as opposed to real quicksand that actually takes a really long time to swallow you up.) This book took a full two minutes, if
It had an exciting plot and was Interesting to some extent but being the forth book in a series, it fell flat for me. The Killer was interesting and some parts of the book held my attention but my constant checking of how many pages I have left made me question if I am really invested in the story... Then the easy ending was just meh and felt a little to convenient.I would suggest you read it as a series, instead of a stand alone. BLOG ---> https://kenyanlibrary.wordpress.com/ Thanks for
