Title: Eyes Of The Da Vinci Code
Review: A very evident attempt to catch a ride on the coattails of The Da Vinci Code's popular success (check out the similarity of the cover art on the two books). Released as a mass-market paperback, this reads more like a fleshed out synopsis than a finished work.Monteleone isn't a terrible writer and his characters have enough differentiation that you don't confuse one for the other (always a plus!). The story advances via the viewpoints of the central five characters and the author does an admirable job of maintaining VP integrity while doing this (i.e. we don't have VP switching back and forth within a particular scene or episode).All the same, a goodly amount of editing could have been done, even to the cover copy which identifies the female protagonist as "Kate Hudson" while all through the book she is presented as "Kate Harrison".
