Title: POORLY DONE
Review: A novel is about people, but instead, The Patriots is an attempt to present the history of the War for Independence with a weak and hastily contrived plot of fairy tale-like identical twins inserted with flimsy characterization and plot situations that at times elicit a chuckle for the absurdity. This book leaves the great story of the American Revolution inexcusibly tattered and diluted, and characters thoroughly forgettable. Any finished attempt at a novel deserves one star and that is what this book rates.
