Title: Disappointing - even for fans
Product review: I am a big Robert Ludlum fan, having read all 18 of his novels published (under the name Ludlum) before 1997 - except The Road to Omaha.The Apocalypse Watch reads as though it were written by a screenwriter. The plot moves swiftly, and is carried by the dialog. However, there is a conspicuous shortage of descriptive prose. Locations, buildings, scenes, and persons are usually described in one short paragraph. That leaves little room for local color, atmosphere, or character development.The Apocalypse Watch is a big disappointment for this Ludlum fan. I can't recommend it.
