1.0 out of 5 stars garbage and antisemitism all in one, Jun 8 2001

By

Addis Ababa (New York, New York USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Walk In The Darkness, A (Hardcover)

This book is the last book I ever read by this author. The writing ability is poor, the characters caricatures stemming from a mean spirit. It is vapid and insipid and moronic. This novel has got to be the best example of what pulp fiction is at its worst. The plot is inadequate for cartoon network( this in response to other reviewers calling it cartoonish- please don't insult cartoons by comparing this to a cartoon. Cartoons can be enjoyable.)An utter waste of time.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Dash Thru the Twilight, Jun 3 2001

This review is from: A Walk in the Darkness (Paperback)

"A Walk in the Darkness" is a glib, slick thriller that moved quickly through the twists and turns of Mideast tensions and contradictions. It's strongest asset was the gimmick of the plot, the possible existence of revolutionary new finds in the Judean desert. However, the rather superficial and stereotypic portrayals (including the over-borrowed character from Casablanca, the Colonel Al-Asi) marred what might have been a great read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Silly and insulting, May 10 2001

By

Dave from Chicago "D.W." (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Walk in the Darkness (Paperback)

This is one of the worst novels I have picked up in a long time. The action scenes are cartoonish. The characters are unrealistically smart and ridiculously stupid, sometimes on the same page. The author seems to have developed his Middle East perspective in the propoganda office of Yasser Arafat. While most insulting to Jews, Mr. Land appears to be an equal opportunity insulter. Palestinians and Catholics will likewise be displeased in the way Mr. Land portrays them. Mr. Land has a childishly unrealistic view of the current political scene in the Middle East. I am sorry I wasted my time on this silly, poorly written, poorly researched work.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Good Action Book!
This was a unique twist in the Jon Land series that stars Ben and Danielle. In stead of being investigative officers they take on the role of action heros. Read more
