Title: Not Patterson's Best
Product review: This is James Patterson's first book and I am happy to report he does get better. I am a huge fan of JP's - I have read all of his Alex Cross and Murder Club books...now I am going back to some of his older books. If I had started with this book I am not sure I would have read any more of his books.The THOMAS BERRYMAN NUMBER is not very well written. It tells the story of a hitman through the eyes of several people. It jumps from 'present' day back to the past and back again. It tells the same story from different perspectives. At times this style is very hard to follow. He introduces too many characters and it is hard to keep up with everyone and their relationship to the story. The main story line is good but the style of telling the story is confusing and difficult to read.If you want to read James Patterson - try one of his Alex Cross books, they are wonderful. Skip this one!!
