The Predators

Rating:
Summary: Pure Trash
Review: A MASSIVE TRAVESTY! Bought the book on strength of author's name. If H.Robbins wrote this book (I doubt it) he was in a semi comatose state with a limited multiple choice plotline/dialogue clipboard. I enjoyed Stiletto,The Carpetbaggers & The Adventurers. I'm not a critical reader; merely looking for novelty and action. I believe book was published for minimal money return on strength of author's name; absolutely NO redeeming value. Book is excellent argument for creating a lower rating than one star!

Summary: OK for entertainment
Review: Absolutely no substance. Nothing at all like his first few books. The Carpetbagger was his last good one as far as I'm concerned. Don't waste your time.

Summary: Disappointing
Review: As soon as I saw that this book was copyrighted by "the estate" of Harold Robbins, I knew I was in trouble. Like some other reviewers, I also doubt very much that Robbins actually wrote this one. It was terribly disappointing. Read his earlier stuff, but skip this one.

Summary: This was just awful...
Review: I've read other books by Robbins and the Predators was just awful! Not only was this book pointless, but the ending was SO DISAPPOINTING that I couldn't believe that it got published in the 1st place!!!! The only reason I gave this even 1 star was that the beginning of the book was interesting. Which is why I was so disappointed in the final product...

Summary: Disappointing
Review: This was possibly one of the worst-written books I have ever read. I hate to not finish a book, and that is the only thing that kept me with this one. I have read some outstanding books from Mr. Robbins, and I highly doubt that he himself wrote this one. Never once did I feel that I connected with any of the characters; they weren't even very likable. The writing style is flat and unnatural, and the plot (or lack thereof) drags along with no apparent focus. I would definetly recommend any of Mr. Robbins's books before this one!

Summary: One of the best books by missed author Harold Robbins
Review: When I discovered the books by Harold Robbins I joined a world unlike any other I've seen till then. The world of bussiness, fame, fortune, losing everything, the dealing with the defeat, sex, sex, sex. At first sight, I was mesmerized and shocked with such books. Reading them I learned things I'd never even imagined. And when I started reading THE PREDATORS, I knew the real Harold Robbins. It's a book full of emotions, feelings and the odds of these things. Of course, with more sex than in any other of his books. If you like that kind of books, read this one. THE PREDATORS is the kind of book you should read on a Sunday afternoon, when you have time to enjoy yourself and have nothing much else to do except have fun. Nothing's perfect, and this book is not, 'cause the end lacks a little in criativity. But who cares when all your main reason to read these books is have fun?
