Summary: take three hours out....read....enjoy
Review: Despite some grating dialouge "up your poop with an ice-cream scoop" (! ), this die hard clone with a twist is simply great entertainment. Willingly suspend your disbelief and enjoy...

Rating:
Summary: Its a pretty good book
Review: It's a pulse pounding story that has a strong plot, there is no real theme and there is no character development outside the protagonist. Overall the book is not boring so i would recommend reading it.

Summary: A gripping, fascinating, don't want to put down book
Review: I read this book at the suggestion of a book store owner. She was right. It grabs your attention and doesn't let go until the very last page. The question of WHY people he knows and trusts are trying to kill him keeps you turning the pages trying to find the answer. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys suspense or mystery. I hope that Mr. Garber writes a sequel!

Summary: I thought this was a really well-written novel
Review: Very fast-paced, believe hero, a lot of action, a little romance, a lot of jumps in the stomach, and intelligently written. I could see this as a movie, no problem.

Rating:
Summary: Awful. Just plain awful.
Review: Ok... for all potential readers of this book, allow me to offer you a scene directly from the text (in my own words of course). Our hero has managed to get his hands on one of his enemies' two way radios. When the enemy realizes that our hero has been listening, he offers our hero a chance to speak his mind. Our hero takes this opportunity to address his foe, and do you know what our author has the hero say to the man who is trying to kill him? "Up your poop with an ice cream scoop." That, my friends, is what you can expect from this piece of crap. Ignore the five star ratings. This book sucks.

Summary: Incredible, fast-paced, spellbounding novel!
Review: This book got me hooked on the action from the very beginning. The ending left me completely breathless, I was riveted and moved throughtout the story. This is a must read for any fan of action and suspense!

Rating:
Summary: uh, what's so great about this book??
Review: I was surprised at the number of good reviews that this book had. I found it to be silly for a number of reasons. The whole plot itself, for instance. The silly dialoge, and silly characters are another problem. And what's with these stupid Vietnam flashbacks? This story couldn't beat Die Hard if tried.

Rating:
Summary: This book kicked my ass!
Review: I can't say more. Bruce Willis can't touch Elliot. The Vietnam passage stands out brutally, and the details, while late in coming, are worth waiting for. Brace yourself, this is a hell of a ride, and great easy summer reading.

Rating:
Summary: Outstanding. It drained me. Hooked from page 1.
Review: This book was nonstop action and suspense. I was David Elliot. I felt what he felt, lived what he lived. I was exhausted when the book finished, but I was smiling. What an outstanding sequence of events presented in such a way as to draw out reader emotion and feeling. If all books were this good, I wouldn't get any work done.

Rating:
Summary: A Thououghly Enjoyable, Non-Stop Thriller
Review: I listened to this book in audiobook format, during a long driving trip. I ended up sitting in the hotel parking lot for the last twenty minutes just to listen to the end without interruption. I highly reccomend it!
