Title: Tremendous let down after reading Clockers: long and boring
Review: I guess it is dangeruous to base one expectations of a book on the autbor's previous work. After reading Clockers, which held my attention on every page with well developed characters and story line, I was looking forward to reading Freedomland. Unfortnuately, Freedomland was a complete disappoint. Although the main characters were interesting the story dragged and by the end of the book I just did not care what happened.I am really not sure who is more to blame for the books failure, the author or the editor. There was probably enough of a story for a 300 page novel. Unfortunately, writers and/or editors seemed compelled to publish books of 500+ pages even when there is not enough book to support this length. It seems in the case of Freedomland some tougher editinig could have improved the book and saved alot of trees.
