Summary: Let's Bungle in the Jungle?
Review: Without a doubt, it was a welcome relief from the usual storyline, which includes the required: good lawyer, bad lawyer, Memphis, New Orleans, little lawyer guy wins, big fancy team of lawyers loses... I had grown so tired of reading the same old story with new character names... "The Testament" took me on an Amazonian safari.... how often do we mere mortals get to take those trips in our lives?In summary, I can only say that it was well worth being on the waiting list at the local library!

Summary: Delightful
Review: This is one of the most enjoyable books I have read in a long time. Great story, lovable characters, wonderfully written. This book has it all. A sequel would be nice.

Summary: I can't go on anymore
Review: Maybe it's a good thing that I only purchased the audiotape of The Partner and that the Street Lawyer was loaned to me, because I can't spend another penny trying to make it through the stereotypical characters (100 zillion people in the law firm all stressed out, boo hoo) and predictable plots. Sorry Grisham, but fulfilling your book contract doesn't have to be this painful. But I did love The Firm.

Summary: Highly Recommended
Review: The Testament had my attention from the begining to the end. The trip from one world to the next was truely an adventure. John, you need to make a movie of this one starring Harrison Ford as Nate O'Riley.

Summary: Readable but not exceptional
Review: It isn't Grishams best work, but all the same its readable. It lacks the speed, intensity and fervor usually associated with Grisham. But if you are reading reviews about the book then u'll most probably end up reading the book as well. U sure wont be disappointed.

Summary: A Must Read For Grisham Lovers
Review: It's hard to believe but this one is even better than John Grisham's previous novels. It takes you from beautiful Virginia to remote areas of Brazil. I especially enjoyed the missionary aspect and the characters' faith in God. Throughout the entire book you are just waiting to learn more and more about the characters and waiting for the unpredictable twists and turns each one takes. I can't wait to read the next one from John Grisham which I've already purchased (The Brethern).

Summary: my review
Review: I enjoyed this story very much. Grisham has already made us learn about all sides of the law, from corporate to penal and this is no exception. Very original.

Summary: The testament
Review: I Think the testament is one of Grishams best books. If you compare it with the other books he wrote, the testament has a few "new type" of characters we have never seen in one of his books. For example: Nate, the main character falls in love for a women who is the opposite of him. He is a greedy lawyer, Rachel is a women who doesn't like money and just loves the simple things in life. I certaintly enjoyed reading The Testament and I recommend everybody to buy it. Yours, Daniel

Summary: It Had Potential, It Didn't have Appeal
Review: Well, in short, I feel that this book started well. A quickly developing plot riddled with interesting characters and curious events. The problem? The characters seemed somewhat stereotyped. Who better to send on this ghost mission then a druggie, alcoholic, anxious and well intentioned hero? No one better, if you work in Hollywood. I forgot the premise of the story after a while and I even forgot about the one dimensional characters halfway through, but I simply could not forget that everything this book has are safe plays. Another thing bothering me about Grisham is his ability to take a good scene and disguise it like a textbook. I fear his books make far better movies than books, which is not necessarily a complement. The only true strength is the potential of this story, it could have been so much better. I grant it that, it is decent in its formula, but immature in its follow up.
