I have mixed feelings about this book. I would recommend it if you liked the first two books, but I would also recommend taking a long break between reads.

I tried reading all three books in succession and I just could not make it through this one.

I don't think it's bad, I think it was just too much Bourne in too little time.

Wow I actually really enjoyed this book. There was a profuse amount of horrid language in it and quite a few racist things. The racial slurs I can justify simply because of the time frame it takes place in and the fact that those kinnds of references were more rampant at that time. The foul language.... well there wasn't really a need for THAT MUCH. However, the story itself kept me intrigued most of the time. The previous two books there was a lot of planning and meetings and just slow boring stuff that was important to the story but much of the time too drawn out. This book there was a lot of action and wondering how Jason was going to get out of this one. I also enjoyed that this book DID NOT include the attempted rape of Marie St Jacques.

A pretty cool, thrilling story but its very long, there is probably two books worth of story in here. The author is very verbose. If he can say something in ten words, he'll use a hundred. There is also a lot of awkward and stilted conversation. At times, especially early on you kind of have to power through, but when the action sequences start, things really get moving. The villain's end is a little anti-climactic.
