3.0 out of 5 stars
A slippery slope?,
By Bibliocat (Cambridge, Mass.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fatal Last Words (Bob Skinner Mysteries) (Hardcover)
Quintin Jardine has given us a fine series of books centering on Bob Skinner, but the last two entries make me worry that he's taking the James Patterson approach to selling books to heart and shortchanging the reader at the same time. When a 438-page book has 87 chapters, most between 2 and 5 well-leaded pages long, I smell a rat as I'm jolted from one plot line to another with barely a chance to savor the character and event. Perhaps I'm being unfair; I'm certainly in favor of selling lots of books. But I hate to see Jardine compromise himself in this way. I gave up on Patterson quite some time ago. I'd hate to put Jardine in the same pile. Can you swing the pendulum back, Mr. Jardine?
