Title: Smuggler's Moon by Bruce Alexander ISBN: 0-425-18690-3 Publisher: Prime Crime Pub. Date: October, 2002 Format: Mass Market Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $6.50 |
Average Customer Rating: 4 (11 reviews)
Rating: 4
Summary: Another good read, but somewhat unfulfilling
Comment: I found this latest Sir John Fielding episode a little disappointing, with nary a twist nor surprise to throw or tantalize the unsuspecting reader. A fine story, to be sure, with the usual excellent descriptive narrative, but very predictable and somewhat unrewarding. Having read and savoured all the previous episodes in this series, I found my main interest in this book directed towards learning the latest about each of the characters within. They have become very familiar to me, almost like family, and I was pleased to catch up with them and their lives.
At one stage in the book, the story-teller, Jeremy Procter, asks his mentor Sir John Fielding when he first suspected he had discovered the prime perpetrator of the crime and his answer was "Almost from the very first".
Unfortunately, I think the majority of readers would answer the same (maybe minus the "almost").
Rating: 4
Summary: Nice Additon to the Series
Comment: The "mystery" part of this book is not as strong as the previous novels, but new characters are introduced and the subject covered (smuggling) is interesting. Like a vist with old friends this addition to the Sir John Fielding series is very satisfying.
Rating: 3
Summary: Just OK
Comment: Alexander's series about London magistrate John Fielding is, inexplicably, getting weaker with each passing book. It's as though he's running out of steam. This is the end of the line for me. The series was good for a while, but I'm moving on.
