Summary: GREAT CLIFFHANGER!!!!
Review: I was really aggravated reading all the poor reviews of this book! I'm glad I bought the book in an airport book store for something to read. I had read all the other Alex Cross books and hadn't seen that one yet, so I was excited and bought it. If I had relied on the reviews here, I would not have bought the book and would have missed out on one of Patterson's greatest books in the Alex Cross series! What is wrong with people these days? Freaking out because the book ends in a cliffhanger - when on TV, every season of every show ends that way??!! I personally just can't wait till the sequel comes out - Mr Patterson, don't keep us waiting too long....HURRY!!!! :)

Summary: The Worst Author I Have Ever Read
Review: Patterson's writing is an insult to one's intelligence. I couldn't finish this book (a Christmas gift) it was so bad. The fact that he is a "bestselling author" is proof of the dumbing down of American society.

Summary: Where's the ending?
Review: Hmmm, I wonder if Mr. Patterson plans to write a follow up to this novel? Could he have left more things unresolved? The Wolf, the sniper, little Alex, his new love interest, and those are just the ones I remember. The book was entertaining, but I felt mislead. I don't have a problem with leaving a small opening for sequels, but what he has done here is written half a novel. I can only assume "Big Bad Wolf II" is around the corner.

Summary: A classic Patterson with a modern flair!!!
Review: Now this is what I'm talking about!!! This book remind me of the old Patterson & how he use to SHOCK and WOW the heck out of you. Now Alex is in the FBI he's called the "FNG", in other words "The F****ng New Guy." Even though he's a very experienced and a famous cop, he still has to start from the bottom and work his way up. He get's no special treatment. He's on a case which involves slavery of beautiful well to do women. This mysterious Wolf is behind it all. I was mostly shocked because I didn't expect certain outcomes especially when his baby's mother come back into the picture. That was some pretty heavy drama happen there. But there was one thing I didn't like in the book. If you shot someone point blank with a rocket laucher wouldn't you die or get affect by the blast. Well, other than that, I was truely entertained and I felt Patterson should stay to his roots of writing a great suspenseful novel.

Summary: Such a disappointment
Review: I am a big fan of Jame Patterson's Alex Cross series and was hooked from reading "Kiss the Girls". However I am getting tired of them ... almost as tired as his plotlines. This novel had no real ending (I am presuming that this is to encourage us the read the next novel) and I certainly did not get as involved with this story as with previous ones.
Alex Cross' situation has developed slightly, what with his relationships and joining the FBI and that was welcome, but I miss the strong bond with Sampson which seems to have gone in this novel. It simply feels empty and like Patterson has lost his bite. I will definitely think twice before buying the next one.

Summary: OK
Review: Being time challenged between work and grad school, I found this rare opportunity for pleasure reading to be somewhat entertaining. The short chapters made the books one that is easily picked up for a brief five or ten minute reading session. However, the plot was not very believable and the ending was very disappointing. If I had known the ending would be so poorly put together I would not have chosen this book; I get so little time to read for pleasure so I would definitely have chosen something more worth my time.

Summary: Worth reading
Review: This in not great literature - but it is entertaining.

Summary: THE BIG BAD WOLF
Review: I am an avid reader of Patterson's novel & love the Alex Cross series. I loved this book up until the end. There was no conclusion. Hopefully Patterson is continuing this book and the battle between Alex and the Wolf. It was a page turner from the start. I would rate it as one of my top 2 Patterson books aside from Kiss the Girls, of course.

Summary: Have read them all
Review: I've read every single one of James Patterson's novels, and while this wasn't his best, it is by far not the worst. My only real hesitation was with the ending. Other than that I found it to be well-written and I loved the characters (as with all his novels--Alex Cross, etc).If 2nd Chance and Roses are Red are my favorites, then Big Bad Wolf comes in third. But you read it. I also enjoyed Brown's Angels & Demons and McCrae's The Bark of the Dogwood. Try them all!!!!

Summary: Big Bad Ending!
Review: I'm an avid fan of Patterson and Cross, but when I finished this one I immediately checked Amazon to see if the "sequel" was available yet so that I could read the ending. The Wolf was a scary villain but I was disappointed in the lack of character development of his "accomplices" and the victims. I'd given previous "Cross" books 5 stars, so I WILL continue to buy Patterson's books!
