Book Reviews of Winter Prey
Book Review: A memorable new chapter of Prey
Summary: 5 Stars
Winter Prey maintains the standard of excellence established by Sandford in the previous volumes of the Prey series. In this work, he's able to knit together multiple themes into a coherent work. Among these themes is one with which, perhaps surprisingly, he hasn't really dealt in the preceding four books -- the extreme cold of the North. The cultural and natural effects of this are both memorably represented. But perhaps the strongest theme of the book is that of the manipulation of young minds. It's noteworthy that in the preview of this book at the end of Silent Prey, the Iceman was instead called the Teacher. The name is tragically appropriate.Maybe the least strong feature of Sandford's writing is the depth with which he represents his characters. Yet by reading the series in order, this isn't as much as a problem as it would be for a standalone work. From book to book, characters, especially Lucas, become more familiar as they develop and progress. For this reason and others I strongly recommend these books be read in sequence.
Still, this book, more than Silent Prey, works on its own. While I give it the highest rating, five stars, as part of the series, by itself it's still worth four.
