This story was not one of my favorites by this author. Several years ago I stopped reading his books because he kept recycling the same psychopathic bad guy, Gary Soneji, and just giving him more psychotic tendencies in each book. Now, I…

I do read some of Patterson's other series, but it depends on the authors. I do like some of them better on CD to listen to while driving, as it makes them more entertaining. I think he is still writing the Alex Cross books himself, and I…

I gave up on Patterson books years ago since he wasn't writing them anymore. They just were getting worse & worse, but I just couldn't put this one down! Although it wasn't all about Alex's trial, which would had been boring, it was an…

I think this book, 'The People vs. Alex Cross' is woefully mistitled. I hope it was an honest mistake, not a misleading and salacious attempt to lure the readers. It may just have been a really bad attempt to keep the name Cross in the…

I have read several books by James Paterson, and i would have to say this is one of his better ones. Alex Cross is accused of being a trigger happy cop who murders unarmed victims. He has a good lawyer and we read about the case as it…

What is it with authors these days? They write a decent spell-binding plot, and then lazily sign-off on a boiler-plate conclusion. Patterson has a decent plot that held me up until a chapter or so from the end, and then ends with a climax…

A very enjoyable Alex Cross novel but I do feel that there could have been more explanation with the whole Soneji cult episode.

Patterson's Alex Cross novels remain his best work. Cross is such an interesting, complex, and believable character and his cases are always unusual and challenging. His family and friends are integral parts of these stories and often…

This is the next book in the Alex Cross series. Not my favorite of the series, but I still enjoyed reading it and look forward to seeing what happens to Alex Cross and his family next.

This bored me too much. I have only read like three other Alex Cross books so I was barely interested in all the side characters. You'll only appreciate this if you've been reading all the Alex Cross books and the entire series.

Happily, yet another Alex Cross novel was totally satisfying. I love all the family dynamics in this series; everyone is integral to the plot in one way or another. There is plenty of drama -- and all without extreme graphics so the…

What't not to like about an Alex Cross story by James Patterson. Nothing! This one is a cut above though. Two great story lines going at once, leaving Cross frustrated and doubting himself and his future. And, as usual, lots of family…

I enjoyed this book and all Alex Cross books like to hear about this family and what they are envolved in at the time. Fast Read

A good read and glad to know that we actually have tech weens tuned into the dark side of the net. Glad to see the Soneji crowd put to rest and Alex taking on his new assignments. Wonder where old John Sampson and friends will wind up in…

Enjoyed this latest chapter in the saga of Alex Cross. Lots of changes in this book and to come. The next book should continue to be interesting for Alex and the entire Cross family.
