Negative Positive
Title: Tedious.
Review: When I pick up a book of suspense, I expect to be able to find interest in all and each line incuded therein. I found myself skipping lines after lines and pages after pages to find out at the end of the chapter what it really happened. So much background and lack of dialogue makes this book too slow for my liking. (it reminds me of the books by Malachi Martin:tedious, boring, fastidious and utterly uninteresing) Why does it takes a full 4 chapters for a priest to travel from Montecastello to Rome to see a cardinal? Why at page 57 Mr Lassiter is still not conducting an investigation? (considering that the book is 435 pages long). It seems that in order to find a line or two of any interest, one must skip pages after pages of background information, a narrative of unrelated facts, and a summary of character development. After all of that, I asked to myself:WHERE IS THE PLOT?
Is the review positive or negative?
