Negative Positive
Title: Bad surprise
Review: I read the spanish version of this book. I was very surprised but in the wrong way. Patterson is very famous due his capacity to write best sellers. Apparently, the Alex Cross saga is his most affortunated serie. However, the book (in Spanish El lobo de Siberia) is full of clichés and resources recommended for apprentice writers only. Using the simile between one of the victims and Claudia Shiffer to give an idea of the character is over used. Same thing happens with the nick name of Dragons' killer to give us the image of Cross for the FBI people. Cross does not have a failure in any role of his life, this is unbelivable. Finally, I think that is a betray of the author to hidden information to justify the final and the openness to prepare a second part of this saga with the Wolf. I respect Mr. Patterson for his 80 millions dollar contracts, not per this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
