Title: Bourne Ultimatum
Post by: Benny on February 19, 2007, 04:06:50 PM
This on the other hand is a bit 'tired' I'm a big fan of the Bourne stuff. Films and books. Also like the Ambler Warning if you have a spare few hours to read.

This is a little slow though and feels about 100 pages too long, with a fairly weak ending. I enjoyed the Bourne Legacy more, that is to say it felt more 'actiony'.

Wait for the film, or try the Ambler Warning.

Bourne (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Robert-Ludlums-Bourne-Legacy-Ludlum/dp/0752865706/sr=8-1/qid=1171901133/ref=pd_ka_1/026-1175138-3134834?ie=UTF8&s=books)
Ambler (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ambler-Warning-Robert-Ludlum/dp/0752878034/sr=8-1/qid=1171901170/ref=pd_ka_1/026-1175138-3134834?ie=UTF8&s=books)

A mate lent me the three Bourne books as a single compendium and I read them back to back. Took bloody ages but once you get going they kinda suck you in. Nothing like the films though. I'll check the Legacy out though...and the Betrayal (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Robert-Ludlums-Bourne-Betrayal-Lustbader/dp/0752885138/sr=1-2/qid=1172017127/ref=sr_1_2/026-2867790-3584401?ie=UTF8&s=books) which is being released soon

Cheers Smilo, the last Lustbader / Ludlum book was ok, so I'll give Betrayal a go.

I'm full for the next month or so though, for some reason I decided to start on Catch 22 and 1984, meant to read them a while ago, but finally got started.

Gotta love Amazons New and Used...
