5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Read! The Russian Threat!, Oct 6 2003
By J. Lockie "Teacher Jay" (San Miguel de Allende Mexico) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Talbot Odyssey (Mass Market Paperback)
This story about the Russian plot to knock out all electronic
communications in the US and thereby take over with their own President
makes another unique story and realistic reading. DeMille continues to
provide great dialog, emotionally interesting characters and suspense
throughout the book. Can't put the book down. The reappearance of one
of the main characters after a so-called parachuting accident is a
good twist. Also the flashbacks and the reappearance of intelligence
officers after 30 years is a good plot line. Which of them are the bad
guys is not answered until the very end with some great surprises!
is impressive throughout the book.
I wish Nelson Demille could write as fast as I can read.
He is among the FEW authors whose books I keep to read
again later.
My second read will be right before the movie comes out.
Enjoy this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not his best, Feb 16 2006
This review is from: The Talbot Odyssey (Mass Market Paperback)
This is not his best book that he has written, but entertaining nonetheless. He is such a talented writer, and there hasn't been one book of his that I have disliked.

However, there were many problems with the book. In the beginning there were so many characters that I couldn't keep track. Luckily a lot of them died so it became easier to follow lol. He probably could have omitted many excess chapters that weren't needed and recieved a even greater powerul effect upon the reader. Also, the plot was unrealistic and hard to follow

Overall, it's a good book and I did like the idea of everybody working together at the end to achieve their goal.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not DeMille's best, but still a good read, Dec 3 2003
By "jmm114a" (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Talbot Odyssey (Mass Market Paperback)
I had very high hopes for this book after reading The Charm School, and unfortunately this one didn't quite measure up. However, if you enjoy the spy-thriller genre, this book is a good investment of your time and money. You won't walk away saying it's the best you've ever read, but it will hold your attention and provide some good excitement along the way.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Talbot Odeyssey
As with the other books written by Nelson DeMille he has NOT failed in keeping you glue to the book, and always wanting more. This is a exciting book, and recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtakingly awesome!
I read the first 1/3 and was bored, so I put it down at the end of my vacation. 9 months later (ok I forgot about it) I picked it back up and couldn't put it down again. Read more

This book is a good companion to Charm School, except this one is set on home turf (Long Island) and the threat is more imminent. Read more
