3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing and Confusing, 7 Jan 2005

tramp (cardboard box) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Big Bad Wolf (Paperback)

I am big fan of James Pattersons books and the Alex Cross books are usually my favourite holiday reading matter as they are easily and quickly read round the poolside. However, found the ending to this book a real anti-climax.I am not easily confused but could someone please explain why earlier on in the book the wolf is actually named then, (without wanting to ruin the story line)we find out the wolf is someone else, resulting in the next book - London Bridges.

1.0 out of 5 stars Id give it No stars if i could, 1 Dec 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The Big Bad Wolf (Paperback)

Terrible !!
After reading about 15 JP books , I wanted the new Alex Cross mystery. Maybe some of the magic we saw with Gary Soneji, instead i got bits of all his old adventures crudely arranged in a new book with some of the names changed so we dont realise. Completely predictable story and as for the "firing a rocket launcher at someone when your in the same van (No, Really)" most of it is completely ridiculous with little continuity and massive plot flaws. I loved all the other Alex Cross books, but this one almost made me hate him. Avoid it people, its one of the worst books i have ever read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Where's the Rest of it????, 31 Oct 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Big Bad Wolf (Hardcover)

As with all Patterson books once you have started you find it incredibly difficult to put it down, I really enjoy Alex Cross and the 'big bad wolf was no exception' but really 'James' where is the rest of it, there is a new book not yet published Im wondering is this the sequal, I really need to know what happens to little Alex and who is the Wolf, in true Patterson fashion he's keeping us hanging but not only to the last page Im disapointed that I have to wait for another book to get to the climax. You'll enjoy it but it will really leave you wanting more!!!

Not one of his best. It felt dragged out and repetitive. Finding out who the wolf was and the 'big mistake in Paris' was a big anti-climax

2.0 out of 5 stars The Very Definition of "Pulp Fiction"
"Big Bad Wolf" is so cheesy and over-the-top that I thought it might be some sort of parody of the genre. But it seems to consider itself a serious attempt at a thriller. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars big bad ending
What was most disapointing was that we have to buy another book to find out who the wolf is....really annoying. However it was a good fast read and enjoyable.

The Big Bad Wolf is the ultimate bad guy; Ruthless, anonymous and untouchable. What better a way to start off Alex Cross' FBI career than with the creation of a new arch-nemesis... Read more

Disappointed. Love Alex Cross and JP, but this felt like a stop gap, until he could really work out where the plot with with Wolf should go. Read more
