4.0étoiles sur 5 Another Nazi Thriller, Aoû 22 2003
Par Avid Reader (Franklin, Tn) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Ludlum seems almost obsessed with Nazis, their schemes and alleged supporters and actions post WWII. This kind of thing - a war tale with lots of action - is a almost a sure hit in the right hands and one cannot argue that the book was a page turner of the first degree.

Still, the convoluted time eras, the non-stop action and the predictable ending caused me to remove a star.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Entertaining enough, Mai 6 2003
Not as good as the Bourne Identity, which was the last Ludlum I read. It's a good page turner, but the multiple time lines of the plot cause the book to be less focused than some of his other work. The character of the father is much more interesting and layered so the first half of the book is better than the end which stars the more obvious characters of the sons. The style of writing is classic Ludlum and there's plenty of the complex intrigue fans expect. A good book to take on a trip as you won't mind abandoning it after you've read it.

If you want to read a masterful spy/war book set across multiple timelines, read Neal Stephenson's 'Cryptonomicon'.

5.0étoiles sur 5 How did I miss this?, Nov. 4 2002
I thought I had read everything Ludlum had ever written, but came across this in a backpacker hostel. What a find! This book made me remember what it was I loved about Ludlum's writing, and reminded me that his older writings are better than all this stuff they're finding now that he's gone.
Vittorio Fontini-Cristi is the eldest son of a wealthy Italian industrialist. His father's involvement in the hiding of a vault containing powerful religious documents leads to Vittorio's becoming enmeshed in events he doesn't fully understand. With World War II as a backdrop, he is hunted by many who want the vault's contents and protected by some who believe he will lead them to the vault as his life is transformed. He is never to escape this legacy, and before he dies, must pass it on to his twin sons--the Geminis who have both become involved in wars of their own. One son is career army with a Vietnam background, the other a peace loving war protester. They must cast aside their mutual dislike to once and for all solve the mystery that has always been part of their heritage.
The book leads you through twists and turns, and the plot is classic Ludlum. He doesn't keep the story moving with useless dialogue and the characters are believable. The power contained within the hidden vault motivates many to devote their lives to it's discovery. You've got to wonder what it could possibly contain to drive people this way.
This book is Ludlum at his best, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good thriller.
