Critic reviews

A page-turner of non-stop action

Bourne is more mysterious than Bond, more real than Batman and more complex than Bruce Willis

Drive and excitement from first page to last. Robert Ludlum is an ingenious storyteller (Mario Puzo)

The real titan of the genre is Robert Ludlum

Olympic style, all-out espionage

A writer who bests the bestsellers

A killer of a thriller

A new breed of spy - yes, he's highly trained and proficient at killing people, but he's still a normal guy

Another gripping story.

An excellent continuation from the Bourne Identity as Jason hunts down his imitator........the major from MI6 proved to be a fascinating addition to the overall plot.

Class and just as exciting as the read

What did you love best about The Bourne Supremacy: Jason Bourne Series, Book 2?

The story is told just as riveting as reading it when I did. really enjoyed this.

What did you like best about this story?

It is just a well told story with many twists and turns that make sense. If you like the political thriller with intrigue, you will love it.

What about Scott Brick’s performance did you like?

great again, only Marie's accent not quiet there but it is a women's voice so that is understandable.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I could feel my anticipation and 'edge of seat' tension many times through out.

Any additional comments?

Highly recommend if you are a Bourne fan or fan of this genre

Supreme indeed!

Scott Brick's accents et al gives voice to the superb writings by Robert Ludlum. Remarkable!

A brilliant storyline masterfully narrated!

It's hard to put this book down and Scott Brick has breathed the story into life in the most remarkable way. would definitely recommend

Much better than an already good movie

Any additional comments?

Firstly the book and movie are almost separate entities and seeing/reading one should not exclude doing the other. The book is nicely structured with a rare level of dramatic irony playing out believably. The narration is good, creating different personalities for each character allowing for conversations with multiple characters to be easily followed but not pulling you out of the story with some over dramatic tone or accent. The story tends to be quite intense though and a fair level of concentration is required to follow the diverse number of characters.
