Negative Positive
Title: 2 1/2 stars -- not what it could have been
Review: I picked up Shark Mutiny at a used-book fundraiser for the local library without having ever read anything from Patrick Robinson. This book was far from spectacular but also not as bad as many of the reader reviews would have had me believe. The plot itself had definite promise, although some of the potential was left unfulfilled as plot lines were left hanging. Action sequences kept me turning the pages. All things considered, there were enough positives in Shark Mutiny to make me take a chance on some of Robinson's other works. Hopefully some of the shortcomings will be less evident.
Is the review positive or negative?
