Yawn!
|
| I have read every one of Griffin's books. This one is a yawner. There is almost no action or suspense in all of the 815 pages. Also, Griffin has developed and refined his irritating writing habit of constantly giving the character's title whenever he comes back into the story. The mouth twisting name of the newspaper, the Gossinger Beteiligungsgesellschaft, G.m.b.H wasn't really necessary and a shorter name could have been chosen. I turned page after page awaiting some action to happen. All I found was more dialogue rehashing the previous events, frequent long airplane flights to gather information when perhaps a phone call might have done the job, and everything minutely detailed except for sleep and bowel movements. The cast of characters is also confusing at times. Who works for whom and what are all these people on his "Presidential Finding" team doing? He now has an elaborate office in Washington a secretary, and people sitting around doing nothing. The cast of characters grows page by page. Griffin must be paid for the number of words written, regardless of whether they add anything to the story. At the end of the story I still didn't know who did in the Lorimer character for sure or who the mysterious villians were who attacked the Estancia. I only finished this book because I'm a Griffin fan. I fervently hope his next book in this series, The Shooters, has some action and suspense and not spend half the book rehashing what happened in the first two of this series. All I can do is hope for the best. |
