Embrace the Serpent

Summary: Wow! I couldn't put this down!
Review: This was a really good book. The plot was well thought out and ideas original. The set up was nice, clearly allowing many points of view. We all wonder what will happen once Castro is dead. Here is one way it could go. I tell you, we could use a man like Bob Grant in the US today. What made this book extra special was the fact that some inside stuff about the White House and Washington was mentioned. Marilyn and Nancy have written a clean book, with out the filler stuff that is found in so many books today.

Summary: OUCH ! One of the WORST books I've ever NOT finished,
Review: Turgid prose, simplistic plot, hackneyed characterizations. I, who read cereal boxes in their entirety, couldn't get past the first third of this affront to writing.

I read and enjoy (and recognize as NOT great literature) most of the political thrillers. This doesn't make the cut.

Had Dan not been VP, this never would have been printed.
