Title: Please Bring Back the Plots!
Product review: I don't even know where to start with this one, Stuart. Okay, so you've written a bunch of other books. Do I really need to be reminded of that every few pages with little asides that add nothing to the plot of this book? That just got me off to a bad start with this book. Second, I do not find the character of Stone Barrington to be even remotely likable; to me he comes off as a pompous ass with too much money and time on his hands. Third, the plot of this book seems very thin. It relies too heavily on plot lines from Woods' other books. This quote on page 236 sums up my whole experience with this book:Holly: "...You think we're near the end of this?"Stone: "God, I hope so. I'm not sure how much longer I can do it."I'm going to go reread Palindrome - now there's a book which showcases Woods' ability for telling a great story. NOT this one.
