good book

Left hanging

Thoroughly enjoyed this book until the last page. I actually thought perhaps pages were missing. The story needed to continue. I was extremely disappointed with the ending. There is no ending.

Interesting

A startling book and depicts what could be the real world of many politicians, prone to blackmailing or being victimised. The final chapter of the book was a slump I feel it needed a strong cuff to the reader. John's writing style also illustrates his law profession, he's a good writter.

I am more into hardcore literature and poetry, but this was a fun read.

I usually dont read his books, this was a class assignment and I enjoyed it.

i thought that this was a great book with a lot of interesting scenes and characters. only thing is when it came time to write a book review for my honors lit class, i couldnt remember what it was about, oops!

Amber

This was not one of his action filled novels. It is still a good read and I would recomend it to anyone who appreciates law. They also have to be able to follow plots easily. Otherwise it was a nicely written book.
