Summary: Don't bother
Review: Every now and then I'm taken in by the jacket blurb and buy another Robin Cook lemon. This one is as bad as the rest: wooden prose, implausible plot, unbelievable and unsympathetic characters. Don't waste your money on this one.

Summary: A GOOD BOOK CONCERNING THE ISSUES OF BIOTERRORISM
Review: Robin Cook's thrilling novel about skinhead bioterrorists is a must read! A vengeful Russian cabbie has teamed up with racist bioterrorists to unleash anthrax in New York City. It's up to medical examiner Jack Stapleton to save the day! Get ready for one of the most suprising book endings ever! Also, this book also demonstrates the real issue of bioterrorism.{Don't worry. Nothing in the book will probably not happen.} Well, anyways, read Vector, it's Robin Cook's best!

Summary: Hackneyed, reads like a script for a 'B' movie
Review: This book has some of the most amateurish writing I've ever read. Cook is particularly weak in characterization, and has a clumsy, affected tone when attempting to write dialogue. I don't plan to read any of his future work.

Summary: Great book, vintage Cook
Review: Another cracker of a thriller from Cook I was slightly confused by Yuri's motivation for his second-to-last act, but that's a minor complaint. Great ending too. But when are Jack and Laurie going to get together? I mean really get together? Mr. Cook, you've been teasing us for three straight books.

Rating:
Summary: Very Funny
Review: I thought this was a very funny book, but it isn't really a suspense thriller. The characters, dialog, and easy going style reminded me of "The Cat Who..." series of mysteries without the charm. Silly, very lightweight fun - the Cobra Event with the "Murder She Wrote" froth.

Rating:
Summary: It a great book
Review: This book is a great book with a great ending. Good thing the powder was just cake powder not anthrax. This is an excellent book. It opened my eyes to the possiblities of bio terrorism.

Summary: great book
Review: I have just finished this book & it is one of his best. It was very hard to put down & you felt every feeling his characters felt. I would love to see this book made into a movie. Keep up the good work, Robin. I have all of your books.

Summary: Depressingly bad
Review: Robin Cook may have written some clever thrillers years ago, but judging by this meritless effort, he has long ago lost the knack. The writing is some of the worst I've seen in ANY work of fiction of ANY kind, the plot is utterly predictable, and the characters completely without any trace of life or credibility. If I were the publisher of this drivel I would hang my head in shame.

Summary: One of the best books I have read from Robin Cook
Review: Vector is one of the greatest I have read from Robin Cook. Altough predictable with some chapters Robin writes the realities of bioterrorism. And with characters like Jack and Laurie, readers are in for some treat with the adventures they go through, much like the mayhem they encountered in Chromosome 6, another great book.
