1.0 out of 5 stars Dreadful writing style & very tough to follow, January 28, 2010
This review is from: The Good Doctor Guillotin (Paperback)
I tried to like this book since the subject matter might have been interesting.

Nothing is better than a good piece of history, especially one that has such a gorrific and enticing subject matter. But this book was a waste of my time and money and I could not recommend it to others.

The writing style is so many voices that I lost track of who was writing the book and what the subject was about. I couldn't figure out if I was reading some person's idea of fiction and what may have occurred in history or if he was trying to tell history from fact and just didn't know how to structure the content and words to make it come across from a storytellers perspective.

I alwys donate my books to a library or charity once I'm done with them, but this book I put in the shredder to save others the pain of trying to get through it and make sense of what the author (or his characters) were trying to say.
