The Judges

Rating:
Summary: Elie did it again
Review: First I must say that Mr. Wiesel's other books including Night, Dawn, and the Accident are all wonderful books.

Second, someone who is reading for action should not read the book. It doesn't have action in the book, but it does allow the reader to dive deep in philosophy.

Third, some say that it doesn't have a "realistic" plot. Can I ask, which fiction book truly has a realistic plot? I think Mr. Wiesel was trying to get the reader to "get" more out of the characters than the way the characters ended up in the cabin. I think we could all learn something from reading this book. I know I did.

I must say that this book was a good read and I recommend it to all. I would also like to recommend the other three books I mentioned earlier--Night, Dawn, and the Accident. Great books from a great writer!

Summary: Mr. Wiesel should have just had "Q" show up.
Review: Mr. Wiesel is pretty good at developing characters, however he doesn't pay attention to the reality of details. It is not just implausible for the characters to end up at the cabin it is virtually impossible. The events getting the characters to the cabin is simply not realistic. It would have been a better story and a more reasonable if "Q" (Star Trek) had showed up and transported them there.

I am a cowgirl from Arizona and I would have put up with the Judges nonsense for about 15 minutes max. Then I would have acted. Mr. Wiesel spend why too much time on thought and not enough on action. Whatever.
