5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read!, 26 Nov 2002
By Mr. T. Richards (Paderborn, Germany) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This review is from: The Bourne Supremacy (Hardcover)
Scenario...you are on holiday to California, from London Heathrow, and your literary resources are exhausted! What do you do?

Buy this of course! It's awesome!!! I'd never heard of Robert Ludlum before this, so I wrote it off as another boring novel produced by some obscure author, as soonas my dad handed over the money.

I think that two thankyous are in order - one to my dad for buying me the book in the first place, and two, to Robert Ludlum for writing this engrossing masterpeice!

If you're a fan of Tom Clancy, you won't be dissapointed! Being a teenager, who plays lots of PC games, you could probably imagine it. I'm one of those that loves stories to do with assassination, complicated political plots, and plenty of action! Robert Ludlum is so descriptive about what goes on when David Webb's wife, Marie, is kidnapped in Hong Kong. Being an assassin, he must fight to find out where his wife is, and who brutally murdered the Chinese Vice-Premier in a Kowloon restaurant!

The book is well written, and I wished that I had read its prequel, The Bourne Identity, which is now a very good film.

If action, politics and conspiracies are your thing, then this is a definite addition to your christmas wish list. I, for one, am adding the other two books, before and after, to mine, and the chances are, that i'll end up getiing a whole lot more of Robert Ludlum's books.

For all of the Tom Clancy fans out there, this is guaranteed to impress you, as well as many others.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best!, 11 Aug 2004
By T. Crease (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Bourne Supremacy (Paperback)
The Bourne Supremacy continues in the rich vein of high quality international espionage/spy/thriller stories of which Robert Ludlum is a master. Its prequel, the Bourne Identity, was sheer class and introduced us to the delightfully intricate and complex character of Jason Bourne, and the Bourne Supremacy continues where that left off.

Just as with its prequel, this is page turning, high octane, explosive stuff, which you simply can't put down. As other reviewers have mentioned, get all three in the Bourne trilogy, take some time off work and get read for the ride - buy them all, as they are all superb!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 22 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Bourne Supremacy (Paperback)
Ludlum does very well for the readers suspense senses and makes it impossible for you to drop the book for a second. This book shows Ludlum at his best.

2.0 out of 5 stars A book of two halves
I must admit that it's been a couple of years since I read the first of the Bourne series, and as such found it quite difficult to get into this one. Read more

If you were hooked with Identity then this book takes the story forward in time, and is good fun. It could do with editing down a bit as I agree it gets a bit slow in the middle... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor
A generic unimaginative storyline, been there and read it all before. An extremely poor writing style, agonising to read and boredom was the only drive to finish it. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY....
I have managed to finish this book. It's incredibly long, and at points extremely dull, but don't let that put you off, because there is a reward come the ending. Read more

This book is fantastic, I could not put it down. Ludlum writes in such a way that I became more and more involved with the character and his situation. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The legacy continues!
It is great to see this Bourne series getting all this attention, and I can't wait for the movie! Ludlum was the father of the modern thriller (at least in my opinion). Read more
