Patterson should be ashamed....this book is a waste of time. Please better spend yours doing something constructive and fun with your time.... Guess I should have taken a hint from the title.

Usually enjoy James Patterson's books, not this one. Kept going with it to see if it would get better. It was too weird.

Strange Story

After reading many dreadful reviews of this book, my expectations were quite low. However, I was pleasantly surprised that the story kept my interest all the way through. However after the ending, I'm now wondering why I was interested at all. Maybe it was due to the fantastic narrator. I'd listen to her read the dictionary.

Worst ever Patterson

We are all human, and we all stink up the joint from time to time. Patterson does here. Narrator makes a valiant attempt to make it listenable, but even that isn't enough. AWFUL!

While the narrator made a valiant effort to dress this book up, this was not one of Patterson's best, and the plot was utterly predictable. Only semi-entertaining.

Not Like the Usual Patterson

Written by Anonymous on May 2nd, 2008

  • Book Rating: 2/5

I read or listen to every James Patterson book that comes out and this was such a disappointment! It was confusing and boring with no real point until the very end. Even then, I was unsatisfied. On the plus side, the narrator did a fine job with a so-so story.

Patterson, James

James Patterson is an award-winning American author. Formerly the chairman of advertising company J. W. Thompson in the early 1990s, Patterson came up with the slogan "Toys R Us Kid." Shortly after his success with Along Came A Spider, he retired from the firm and devoted his time to writing. The novels-featuring his character, Alex Cross, a black forensic psychologist formerly of the Washington, D.C. Police Department and Federal Bureau of Investigation, now working as a private psychologist and government consultant-are the most popular books among Patterson readers and the top selling US Detective series in the past ten years.

In 2007, one of every fifteen hardcover novels sold was a James Patterson title - totaling an estimated of 16 million books sold last year in North America alone. In total, Patterson's books have sold an estimated 150 million copies worldwide. He has won awards including the Edgar, the BCA Mystery Guild's Thriller of the Year, and the International Thriller of the Year award. James Patterson was called "the man who can't miss" in Time magazine. He is the first author to have #1 new titles simultaneously on The New York Times adult and children's bestsellers lists, and to have two books on NovelTracker's top-ten list at the same time..He holds the New York Times bestsellers list record with 39 New York Times bestselling titles overall.* He even made an appearance on the Fox TV show The Simpsons as himself.

Patterson is also well known for sharing the spotlight with different co-authors such as Maxine Paetro and Andrew Gross and has often said that collaborating with others brings new and interesting ideas to his stories.

He also founded the James Patterson PageTurner Awards, now in its third year. Patterson has personally given away over $600,000 to reward "people, companies, schools, and other institutions who find original and effective ways to spread the excitement of books and reading."

Patterson's bestselling Women's Murder Club series is now a TV show starring former Law & Order star Angie Harmon. The show premiered in the fall of 2007 on ABC television. Other movie deals are currently in the works with various Hollywood studios including a major motion picture based on his Maximum Ride series, to be produced by Avi Arad, the creator of X-Men and Spiderman. Most recently, the forthcoming Dangerous Days of Daniel X has been optioned by New Regency.

Patterson received his bachelor's degree from Manhattan College.

He lives in Palm Beach, Florida with his wife, Susan, and son, Jack.
