Book Reviews of Rules of Deception
Book Review: 3 1/2 Stars -- Has All The Elements To Be A Topnotch Thriller... But Overall Just An Okay Read!
Summary: 3 Stars
Rules Of Deception has all the individual ingredients that should have resulted in it being a sure-fire winning international espionage thriller -- e.g., lots of action and suspense, interesting locales, a plot based heavily on today's world events, high-tech weaponry, etc. However, Rules Of Deception in my opinion wound up being a just a notch above average. This is due to Reich's being just an okay writer in terms of developing multi-dimensional, real-life characters and credible dialogue. While Rules Of Deception held my interest from beginning to end, I rarely felt compelled to stay glued to my seat in order to find out what was to happen next, and much of what does happen you'll probably be able to anticipate well in advance. Rules Of Deception is not a bad book. In fact, it is an okay read and the type of book that would be good for a day at the beach or a long airplane ride. It, however, is not one I'd recommend that you rush out to buy and put at the top of your to-be-read list.
A book that I would very highly recommend you put at the very top of your reading list is Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith.
