Add a CommentExcellent book ending needed a little more action but over all excellent
Patterson is a great writer and this book is exceptionally well-written. It was hard to put this book down. In fact the book would have been perfect, except that the ending was very unsatisfying. It would have been so easy for this to have been rated A plus, but with the surprisingly weak ending, I'd have to rate it a B plus.
Great read! Keeps you interested throughout. This is the first book by James Patterson I read and I like his style!
This is the first book I have read by James Patterson and I loved it. I am now going to read all of the Alex Cross series starting with "Along Came a Spider". Very quick read.
The ending is a little soft but still enough drama to entice you to read the next "Cross" book
I enjoyed very much. But was really disapointed in the ending.
Alex Cross. Sick.
