Title: Oh, what a tangled web . . .
Review: Oh, what a tangled web they weave. Again, this Preston-Child novel, The Book of the Dead, contains so many characters and subplots it's almost too daunting to absorb and seems to bog down the read at times (though I'm still a huge fan of these authors). I stayed with the book to the very end but found myself skipping entire passages to get back to the action. Not on par with their earlier works, to be sure.
