本シリーズは、Alexの心理分析を中心にした事件の展開が魅力的なのに、本作品は全くその要素が感じられない。本書の大部分を占めるアフリカに行っての苦難が話しの展開上何の意味があるのかよくわからない。また事件の背景が全く分からずあっけない終わり方をする。最近の作品の中で、期待を裏切るものがぼつぼつ出始めてきたが、これが最悪で最後にしてもらい、次回作では以前のAlexシリーズの醍醐味を味わせて欲しい。ファンの一人として切に希望する。

Where is Alex Cross?
2008/11/20
形式:ハードカバー
This is one of the most poorly thought-out, unbelievable books I have read in a long time. Almost from the beginning, I had the odd feeling that I had just stepped into the most contrived situation imaginable. Horrible grisly murder after horrible grisly murder, unexpected poorly thought out action, characters that you never really get to understand or don't even want to, overuse of the exclamation point to underline the action(!); felt like a cheap harlequin thriller to me.
The Alex Cross series was a great one; this doesn't even feel like it is written in the same voice. Alex is a gritty smart introspective detective; the Alex Cross in this book was something of an idiot -- blindly forcing himself into situations he had no business even thinking of entering into, all without that careful forethought we have been treated to in the past. I would skip this one, or at least wait until you can find it in the bargain bin.

Thoroughly Disappointing
2008/12/4
形式:ハードカバー
I am a HUGE fan of James Patterson's Alex Cross series. I look forward to the new releases with great anticipation. However, I must say, I was thoroughly disappointed by this latest Alex Cross novel. It was a tough book to get through; which, for me, is unusual for this series.
(1) The murders were extremely gruesome and violent beyond what seemed necessary. (2) I have to agree with some of the other comments; Alex seemed to have lost his good and common sense in this book. His decisions constantly put those around him in harms way. His decision to fly off to Africa to pursue a killer in a foreign country with absolutely no government assistance seemed downright ridiculous. (3) Although I believe the plight and conditions that exist in Africa should be brought to main st America to encourage awareness; I didn't think this crime-thriller novel was the best forum. (4) The entire plot was beyond believable.
Mr. Patterson's writing style with the short chapters remained but his wonderfully woven storyline was missing from this novel.

AWFUL!!!
2008/12/5
形式:ハードカバー
This book was horrible, I got it on tape to listen to while driving 1,000 miles (in one day) with my husband over the Thanksgiving holiday. I told him prior to the drive that Patterson had finally written his OWN BOOK......one with Alex Cross in it. I promised him it would be a real treat.
The lack of plot and Alex' complete disregard to the dangers he was in was totally unfathomable. I don't understand why it was written this way, I am so not impressed.
This book disappoints in a huge way. Thank goodness I have gotten smart and not spent my hard earned money on his latest books, I got it at the library.
We struggled to listen to the last couple chapters, it was surreal.
Not worth the effort to read.
