5.0 out of 5 stars A surprising hit, June 23, 1998

As a reader of all T. Jefferson Parker's novels, I held back on buying and reading this one for some time, but since I enjoyed his other books I gave this a try.

Boy was I happy! For me this was definetly the sleeper hit for T. Jefferson Parker. The excitement and plot twists kept my attention. I was really bummed to finish. It was a great insight into the Vietnamese culture of Westminister, CA.

A few flashback scenes really helped explain the motivations of some of the key figures.

1.0 out of 5 stars Put it down, April 2, 2010

This review is from: Little Saigon (Mass Market Paperback)

I glady put it down. Just awful and could not get past Chapter 7. Really forced myself to get that far. I read his Rayborn and Hunter series and thought they were good, this however is insipid. Seems like it was written by a guy with a dictionary on a long flight or two.

1.0 out of 5 stars yes, underwhelming indeed., March 2, 2009

This review is from: Little Saigon (Hardcover)

I am having a difficult time getting interested in this, I must agree with the other bad reviews on this book. Will drop it and go on to the next on my pile. Too bad other authors are so willing to endorse and promote bad books like this one. It is really boring. I've read Parker in the past and he was so much better.
