Rating: Summary: Confusing Review: Forensic pathologist Dr Laurie Montgomery investigates when a series of cocaine deaths has one thing in common - corneal transplants. So what do these have to do with the Italian-American ganglands of New York? To be honest, I don't know. My concentration lagged with the long length of the novel, and my reading in front of the telly. Cook's characterisation has improved, though. (B)
Rating: Summary: Robin Cook's Blindsight: Excellent! Review: From Robin Cook, one of todays best medical writers, comes a fantastic tale of mystery, and thrills that will send chills up your back! Blindsight was most certainly one of Cook's best!
Rating: Summary: Blindsight Review: I am in the middle of this book right now and it is very good! It has lots of suspense, although hit can be a little bit gory. Not a lot, but it can be. I advise you to read it.
Rating: Summary: Boring Review: I could not get into this book. The storyline was dull and so were the characters. Not recommended!
Rating: Summary: three and one-half plus stars Review: I enjoyed reading the story. The story or mystery, itself, was very interesting, but some of the characters could have been better developed. Laurie Montgomery is a forensic pathologist who has noticed that several people have come to the morgue who have O.D. but are not known drug users. Because of the similarities in their deaths, she thinks that there is some bad drugs on the streets that are lethal. She wants to warn the public but doesn't get any help from her boss and the police so she does some investigating on her own. Meanwhile, bodies are piling up in the morgue that look like mafia hits, but the police can't find any connection. I found the story interesting and if you want a good quick read this book should do very well. Enjoy!

Rating: Summary: This one is good however, I do have my favorites. Review: I feel that Robin Cook is one of the best authors in todays world of science. He is such a bright and interesting writter. His style keeps me reading on, keeps me coming back for more. This may not have been his best work, but thats just my prejudice opinion. I have read enough now to have favorites
Rating: Summary: Suspencful Review: I found Blindsight to be a little different than, the typical Robin Cook book, if you know what i mean. THis was interesting enough to make me want to ready what other pathological mysteries would Laurie Montgomery have to solve. I could follow her forever. Great read, keep one is suspence, and i couldnt put it down.

Rating: Summary: I couldn't connect with the characters Review: I had a hard time accepting Laurie . . . Cook makes her seem very one-dimensional. Laurie has problems in her past and with her parents . . . Cook doesn't develop her beyond this point. This plot was too unrealistic and unnecessarily gruesome in parts . . . it's not his best book.
