Title: It should be thrilling but it's not...
Review: In "The Manhattan Hunt Club" John Saul takes a premise that has been done a few times (people hunting people) and moves it to a new location. Jeff converse has been falsely accused of murder and, after his death has been faked, becomes the prey for human hunters in the maze of subway tunnels and sewer system beneath the city of Manhattan.Unfortunately, a good premise does not a good book make. Saul never manages to pull "The Manhattan Hunt Club" above mediocrity. His characters aren't particularly interesting and, for such an exciting concept, the novel moves at a snails pace. These problems are rounded off with suspension-of-belief breaking coincidences. Somehow Saul has managed to fail to deliver intensity from a premise that almost exudes it naturally."The Manhattan Hunt Club" has made for TV movie written all over it. This is at best an average offering from a well-known author.Read more reviews on our official site:[...]
