3.0étoiles sur 5 This sequel's all wet...., Fév 11 2004
This review is from: Ripley Under Water (Paperback)
Fans of the Ripley series will find a few enjoyable moments, particularly in the characterizations of the well known characters of Tom, Mme Anette and Heloise. Otherwise, there is little suspense and even less ultimate payoff. Strangers to the Highsmith works will most likely be left completely non-plussed. This is a particularly dated and unclever work.

5.0étoiles sur 5 It's not that bad!, Avril 2 2003
Par "vortex87" (Picnic Point, NSW Australia) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Ripley Under Water (Paperback)
I have read few good reviews for this book, but having read it now, I think very much otherwise.

In my opinion, this is the second best in the series - because "The Talented Mr. Ripley" is the best, of course, but also because "Ripley Under Ground" had a few good moments and was otherwise rather flat (4th best to me), "Ripley's Game" had a more good moments, but still didn't reach great peaks of suspense (3rd best), and "The Boy who Followed Ripley" was really pointless, and the core concept had already been done, and a lot better, in "The Two Faces of January."

But here, as soon as Tom grows suspicious of the Pritchards, the atmosphere goes very apprehensive. And, as the novel progresses, it turns to a tension - that sweet, magical "oh, don't get caught! Don't get caught!" tension - that only the first one really has. And it doesn't let go.

This book is indeed one of the few "unputdownables" that nearly equals Highsmith's best. It's definitely worth it. Read on!

2.0étoiles sur 5 Worst of the series, Oct. 8 2002
Par Tim (St. Paul, MN) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Ripley Under Water (Paperback)
Having read all of the Ripley books in order, I must echo other reviewers in saying that this is the weakest of them all. A promising plot is overcome with unanswered questions, and an ending that just falls flat. All due credit to Highsmith for making the novel entertaining and interesting, and I would have given the book more stars had the ending been more interesting. As it is, kind of disappointing.
