Title: Thank God he learned to write after this one!
Review: I was relieved to find out that this was Ludlum's first book and not a recent one. He has certainly come a long way since The Cry of the Halidon. If I had read this book first, I would probably never pick up another Ludlum book, and what a shame. He is one of the best suspense writers out there.There's no definition to any of the characters and no point to the story - whatever the story was. By the time you get to the end (at least it read fast), you could care less about any of them. I also found it amazing that if I put the book down for a few hours, I would have to go back and recap in order to remember what it was I was reading about. Thank God Ludlum learned to write after this one!
