Negative Positive
Title: A nice return
Review: I was worried that after The Brethren and The Summons we were starting to see a pattern of decline in Grisham's writing. Like most, this was not my first Grisham thriller and I remain a fan of his novels.I was pleasantly surprised by the King of Torts. The protagonist, Clay Carter, defies the easy to embrace and formulaic characters we were starting to see too often. His complex motivations and behaviors make for a interesting read that challenges the reader to consider their own ethical dilemmas.I'm not certain if it was by writing more in-depth character studies like A Painted House that caused this change but hopefully we can expect more of the same.
Is the review positive or negative?
