The explosive finale of these Book Shots featuring Jon Roscoe .. how will the story end ??
I have finished these 5 books, and I must say first that I do not like this format .. I want to get to know a character and feel involved with the storyline - sadly, this was not up to the high standard I've come to expect from JP ..
The overall premise was a good idea, a strong main character and the beginnings of a good plot - but to me it seemed more like a pitch of an idea for a book, rather than a complete read .. the ending also left me disappointed ..
I'm better off with the JP I know, and thoroughly enjoy, Alex Cross & the WMC etc ..
Would score 2.5, but I'm being generous with 3's ..
Very Disappeared with each book only lasting 30min and real end to the story. I have been reading James Patterson books for years and love them but as for bookshop never again.
A very expensive trick on me. I thought that I was buying a whole book but apart from book one I had to buy it virtually chapter by chapter. Never again, be warned.
A bit ridiculous, not particularly likeable characters, and a rushed ending. Overall it was decent, but should have been in no more than 3 parts. 2.5 stars.
