Loading... Die Jäger: Thriller (edition 2011)by David Baldacci, Uwe Anton (Übersetzer)
Work detailsDivine Justice by David Baldacci
None. My library is having a Baldacci promotion so we were given this as a 2nd reading group book. My mother loves Mr Baldacci but I am not a big fan of this sort of book and my mother says she was not very enamoured of the Camel Club books either. So it was just OK. A typical thriller - a lot of very unlikely things happen to basic characters. And is every miner in the USA really high as a kite? The reading group were not that impressed either. I now have another [The Innocent] so Mr B gets a second try. Another Oliver Stone novel. I like the the character but his 'camel club' pals are not believable. {Not that one would expect anything to be 'believable' in an action novel.] FIC BALDACCI, D. 2008 I picked up this book as a double volume and after reading "Stone Cold" was pleased to find that "Divine Justice" was a sequel. I enjoyed the diversion of action in the little town of Divine, away from the blood and thunder of the American FBI, CIA, etc, etc. It was nice to have a bit of action amongst "ordinary" people. Fast-paced, full of action. A nice read! no reviews | add a review

What I Loved: The 2 simultaneous stories worked well in parallel. When they finally came together it was a very good ending to the story. Stone and Knox were great anti-heroes, they both were trying to do what they had to knowing that they were caught between a rock and a hard place. Annabelle was a fantastic character also as a 3rd player in this thriller.
What I Liked: The pacing of this book was pretty good. It did lag a bit at times but picked up pretty quickly. You don't have to read these books in order. This is the first one I have read and never once felt lost.
Complaints: None
Audio Review: I loved the narrator Ron McLarty, he was perfect for this book. The music chapter changes though I am not a huge fan of and they were a bit distracting.
Why I gave this a 4: It was a good story from beginning to end. The plot was solid and the characters believable.
Who I would recommend this too: People who enjoy political thrillers and enjoy intrigue.
