This novel had very exciting action, and the plot was well thought out. I would recommend this book very highly. Now as to the naysayers who reviewed the book; What is wrong with a lot of detail? What is wrong with an exciting amount of action? What is wrong with sophistication? And to the people who say we have "Jack reacher, who needs Bourne". All I can say is Reacher is an ex-Army thug, who meanders around aimlessly. Don't get me wrong, I love Child's (Grant's) Reacher novels. But Bourne is a sophisticated agent, who seems to have some feelings we all experience in life, his just a little more intense (he does kill people for goodness sake). Great book!!!!!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Action expressBy shepsdadK3NOnce again Van Lustbader has done the seemingly impossible job of filling Robert Ludlum's shoes with the next installment in the Jason Bourne saga. EVL understands the torture that Bourne feels with the empty memories he is cursed with. Combine that with the sense of loss of everyone he cares about, and he is the tragic, troubled man Ludlum created so long ago. EVL is also brave enough to drift away from Ludlum's need for his characters to find a stable base in a romantic interest, Bourne is just too troubled a man to live happily ever after. His need for retribution is the driving force for this story and for his story in general. Bourne is the one focused arrow in an otherwise duplicitous world where he can trust no one and everyone has a hidden agenda. The story moves at a breakneck pace as Bourne tries to find his way while mourning the loss of Rebeka; ranging from Mexico to Israel to China attempting to stay ahead of all the plots and enemies wanting his death. It is comforting to know Bourne is in good hands with EVL, this is a great way to spend a snowed in weekend.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Very disappointedBy DizI've read all of the Bourne books prior to this one and enjoyed most of them. Something changed in the author's writing style in this book. It's very amateur-ish, as if one of his trainees was doing the writing and he didn't proof it. I always enjoyed Van Lustbader's descriptive style...very seamless and natural. In this book the style seems so contrived and immature. Bourne's character has changed, too. He never used to laugh at the mayhem he caused and was considerate of innocent people...no longer the case. I'm only 15% of the way in the book and not sure I'll even finish it. Very disappointed.
