2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing compared to his other books, 1 Feb 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Sunday (Mass Market Paperback)
I read this book a couple of years ago, having read Red Dragon and Silence. While I greatly enjoyed these, I found this book to be completely diferent, more in the line of a thriller, which genre is not my favourite. I found the book to be relatively shallow and not particularly well developed. It did not particularly engage me and I would not recommend it to anyone who would look at it on the basis of his subsequent books.

4.0 out of 5 stars An array of intriguing characters and ideas., 7 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Sunday (Mass Market Paperback)
I came across this book after reading the Hannibal Lecter trilogy, and I must say I was pleasantly surprised by what I read. Harris has used an age-old idea and polished it with originality and depth, without being overly-psychological. Despite the flawed ending, it is a thoughourly readable yarn with plenty of interesting 'what if?' questions raised, and I recommend it to any Harris fan. It certainly deserves the four stars I adorn it with.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding, 24 Mar 2008
By J. T. Rose "J T Rose" (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Black Sunday (Mass Market Paperback)
I throughly enjoyed reading this book, and, although it maybe heresy to say this, I think I enjoyed it even more than some of the Lectre books, especially Hannibal and Hannibal rising. I also found it especially interesting as I've been recently doing a lot of research into John McCain (a former Vietnam POW) over the last few months, and it was fascinating to read Harris's depiction of life in a Vietnam POW camp. I do, however, agree with other comments, that this is very much a thriller, and if you don't particuarly like thrillers, then this prehaps is not the best Thomas Harris book for you.
