First Sentence
Dinner had been wonderful-twelve around a gleaming oval table of burled walnut in a dining room a dozen stories above the light-flecked carpet of Central Park, the cooking by the chef of a famous restaurant a few blocks away, the wines from the host's superb cellar, and the company carefully chosen by a couple who could cast a wide net. Read the first page

3.0 out of 5 stars Like Reading a TV Movie, Dec 4 2003
By John Ashley Nail (Decatur, GA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Dirt (Mass Market Paperback)
Reading Stuart Woods'"Dirt" was like reading a made-for-TV movie: Glamorous characters, fast-paced action and nothing too deep to make your head hurt. I could easily imagine Tom Selleck as Stone Barrington, and I'm sure Susan Lucci could star as the bitchy gossip columnist Amanda Dart. Though I find Woods' characters to be cardboard cutouts, his pulpy plots are entertaining. This is definitely beach reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars Gets Better and Better, Jan 30 2003
By Mandy Morreale (Spring Hill, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dirt (Mass Market Paperback)
Stuart Woods has quickly become one of my all-time favorite authors. After reading one of his novels, I decided to start at the beginning of his Stone Barrington series. I read "New York Dead" and then moved on to "Dirt." Woods does a great job of maintaining his character development of Stone, and Stone naturally grows into his role as a lawyer. I was not impressed with the book in the beginning, after several chapters the book got much better and went at a very fast pace. Definitely a good ending on this one too. I recommend this novel for anyone who likes series, but start at the beginning with "New York Dead."

5.0 out of 5 stars captivating, Oct 10 2002
By "randtsimon" (ISANTI, MN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dirt (Mass Market Paperback)
THIS WAS THE FIRST STUART WOODS BOOK I HAD READ. I THOUGHT IT WAS VERY CAPITVATING FROM THE GET GO. THE CHARACTER STONE BARRINGTON IS AWESOME. I AM NOT A BIG READER, BUT I USUALLY TEND TO STICK TO THE SAME THREE AUTHERS, AND IT TAKE ME ABOUT A MONTH TO READ A BOOK. NOW, ONCE I PICKED THIS BOOK UP, I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN. I HAD IT FINISHED IN FOUR DAYS. WHICH LIKE I SAID IS EXCELLENT FOR ME. I LOVE THE WAY MR. WOODS WRITES HE GIVES JUST ENOUGH DETAIL, NOT TOO MUCH, BUT ITS ENOUGH WHERE YOU CAN PICTURE WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT. I CAN TELL I WILL BE READING A LOT MORE OF YOUR STONE BARRINGTON NOVELS, THANK YOU FOR ENLIGHTING ME.

3.0 out of 5 stars These Characters--Why Should I Care?
Trouble with this novel are its cast of urban characters. With minor exception they come off as people who make more money than they deserve, who appreciate little of what they've... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Not his best
I'm a big fan of Woods, but I'm writing this review to say that he shouldn't be judged by this book, which is appropriately titled. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Book
Another Stone Barrington book and as usual very entertaining. Nothing spectacular or earth shattering but enjoyable and something to look forward to reading each night.

4.0 out of 5 stars very dishy, very fun
Super lightning fast speed. Can you deal with a lot of drama? You know, backstabbing, rampant sex, a murder here or there? Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Good and easy to read
I have really liked all of Stuart Woods books. Be aware that in each of them there is one or two brief sex scenes. They ARE very explicit but well written and brief. Read more
