Reviews

"As twisted, dark and exciting as the others."--THE OKLAHOMAN on THE BOURNE SANCTION

"Don't ever begin a Ludlum novel if you have to go to work the next day."--Chicago Sun Times

"Lustbader is an excellent storyteller and is not afraid to keep the twists and turns coming in this sequel...This is an explosive addition to a series with an unrivaled heritage and storied pedigree."--Bookreporter.com on THE BOURNE BETRAYAL

"Reading a Ludlum novel is like watching a James Bond film...slickly paced...all-consuming."--ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

Lustbader's third continuation of Ludlum's popular espionage series (after The Bourne Legacy and The Bourne Betrayal) finds Jason Bourne trying to unravel the terrorist plot of a previously unknown Muslim group. Audie Award nominee Jeremy Davidson does an outstanding job creating distinctive voices for the multitude of American, British, and Eastern European characters, but their sheer number and the constant switching of settings will test listeners' attention spans, and the musical cues employed during the action sequences are cheesy. Nevertheless, recommended for public libraries owing to the series' continuing popularity.--Michael Adams, CUNY Graduate Ctr. Lib. Copyright 2008 Reed Business Information.
