What make sit stand out? The crazy villains. They're presence is so strong, you find yourself hoping they'll steal the gasoline. They make bad damn good!
...but not as much anymore. I only gave two stars because the heroine is totally annoying. I guess she's supposed to be written as strong and independent, so why do authors fall into the trap of writing such women as banshees you roll your eyes at? Page after page, I kept waiting for James to throw Georgina overboard so she'd drown. That's how annoying I found her. She's as bad as Lady Brenna from Fires of Winter (someone else who I wished wouldn't have come back after she found herself abducted by the vikings across the fjord). I like most of Lindsey's male heroes, but her heroines are hit and miss, and if they are a "miss," they really spoil a great story. Same with the tired plot of "I love you, no I hate you, no I love you, wait, have sex with me, no, don't have sex with me." Can't she come up with something better?
What draws me into this movie are the villains. I enjoy a good villain and Hans Gruber is it. He almost makes you wish he'd defeat John McLain and get away with the $$$. Gotta give props to gorgeous Fritz (Hans Buhringer), along with Carl (Alexander G.). The villains are stand-outs, just as they were in The Road Warrior.
It's one of those books you can't put down because you want to find out what happens next. It's a bit of a slow start when she details her life in Iran, but then quickly moves into her rock-n-roll adventures. I'm one of those rare people who actually enjoyed her memoir over Pamela Des Barres' I'm with the Band.
I searched this one out since I love Jimi Jamison's pipes, and I wasn't disappointed. It's a good hard rock album. A nice mix of ballads, rockers and in-between.
